About Our Team
Our Family That Nurture Your Child
90% Qualified Staff Matters
Government requirements specify just 50% of staff need Level 3 qualifications, 90% of our team holds advanced certifications. This isn't about meeting standards – we opened snowflakes because we felt that government standards were not enough, it's about delivering your child the individualised expertise they deserve.
Our team qualifications include:
Montessori diplomas
Early Childhood Studies degrees
EYFS specialist training
Speech and language development certificates
Special educational needs expertise
Advanced safeguarding qualifications
Long Standing Members of Our Team
Many of our educators have been with us for over a decade. Some have dedicated twenty years to Snowflakes families. This exceptional retention creates something remarkable: genuine relationships between educators and children that deepen over years, not months.
This stability allows our team to build the trust that helps anxious toddlers become confident learners.
Our Staff Are Here To Guide
We can recognise subtle developmental readiness cues that inform weekly planning.
Guide children toward appropriate challenges without forcing development.
Build on previous learning rather than starting fresh each term.
Maintain the consistent expectations that help children feel secure while exploring.
Your Child's Key Person
Each child is assigned a dedicated key person who becomes their secure base at nursery. Your child will have a key person who supports them throughout their entire journey to school.
This special relationship provides:
Consistent daily care from someone who truly knows your child's needs, interests, and developmental patterns
Partnership with you in tracking progress and celebrating achievements across years
Emotional security that allows your child to take on appropriate challenges confidently
Communication that goes beyond daily updates to genuine insights about your child's growth

A Culture of Expertise and Connection
After 22 years, we've learned that exceptional early years education requires both professional competence and authentic relationships.
Our culture is built on the belief that these aren't separate qualities – they're inseparable. Because our team collaborates so closely over many years, they develop a deep, shared understanding of each child's journey.
This allows them to partner with you, not just as carers, but as genuine experts who can articulate exactly how today's play is building the skills for tomorrow's success.
Get in Contact With us
The best way to understand what makes our team exceptional is to observe them supporting children's development during our morning work cycles. You'll see why parents consistently tell us their children genuinely love coming to nursery – and why they trust us with their most precious relationships.
