Amber

Third in Charge & SENDCO

I have been working in childcare for over 10 years, gaining my BA Hons degree as a Level 6 qualified early years practitioner in 2017. I love being able to support children's development through providing fun & exciting learning opportunities while also creating a warm and engaging environment where every child feels valued and supported.

At Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery, I find joy in being part of a team that shares my commitment to high-quality early childhood education. The innovative curriculum and play-based approach not only foster children’s natural curiosity and creativity but also allow them to develop essential skills at their own pace. I am particularly drawn to the nursery's ethos on outdoor play, and exploring as much of the natural world as possible, ensuring that every child feels confident and capable while doing so.

Working alongside a passionate team of colleagues inspires me daily. Together, we celebrate each child's unique journey, guiding them through exploration and discovery. Seeing the children grow, learn, and form friendships fills me with immense pride. I am excited to contribute to their formative years, and I cherish the opportunity to make a lasting difference in their lives.

I have been with my partner for 13 years (newly married!) and during our spare time we enjoy being with our friends and family and seeing as much of the world as possible. We've road-tripped around parts of America and more recently, we've enjoyed campervanning around Southeast Australia!
