Staff

I joined St Joseph’s Pre-school in September 2013 and I have a BAHons Degree in Early Years Education Studies and a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) in Primary and Early Years.

I enjoy working at St Joseph’s Pre-school as you are able to see the holistic development of the child. I see children become more confident socially and academically while being in a fun and safe environment where they are able to risk-take.

NB: Natalie is currently on maternity leave

I have worked at St Joseph’s Pre-school from September 2014. I have a Level 3 diploma in Childcare and Education.

I really enjoy working in St Joseph's pre-school. I feel, as a team, we all work really hard together ensuring the children develop in a positive, fun and safe learning environment.

I started working in St Joseph's Pre-school in June 2017. I started as a 1:1 practitioner and enjoyed supporting the child to develop and learn; guiding them in a fun and caring manner.

I completed my Level 3 in Childcare and Education in March 2019.

I started at St Joseph's Pre-school in September 2023. I will be working as a 1:1 within the setting.

This is my first childcare position however I have three children of my own and am very keen to learn and develop further within the field.

I joined St Joseph’s Pre-school in October 2024, and through working at St Joseph's Nympsfield Out of School Club, I have gained experience helping children learn and grow.

I enjoy working with the preschool team to support every child to gain confidence through learning but most importantly to have fun.
