Our Team

As a parent to two wonderful boys, Elijah and Ezra, I understand firsthand the joys, challenges, and milestones that come with raising little ones. This personal experience drives my passion for creating a nurturing and inclusive environment at Lots for Tots Childcare – one where children thrive and parents feel supported every step of the way.

With a professional background in HR and Recruitment Management, I’ve honed my skills in fostering positive relationships, building strong teams, and ensuring that every voice is heard. At Lots for Tots, I’m committed to creating a setting where children, families, and staff feel safe, happy, and valued.

For me, it’s not just about providing exceptional care for the children – it’s about building a community where everyone can grow, learn, and feel cherished. Together with our dedicated team, I’m excited to help your little ones flourish in their early years.

I’ve always had a passion for working in early years and supporting children as they grow, learn, and thrive. With over 15 years in the childcare industry, I’ve dedicated my career to creating nurturing environments where children feel safe, supported and encouraged to reach their full potential.

My passion for childcare led me to start my own business, Mini Minding Events, providing bespoke childcare for weddings and special occasions. When I learned that Lots for Tots was expanding into childcare, I knew it was something special to be a part of. Their values align perfectly with mine—creating a warm, welcoming space where children can flourish and where staff feel valued, supported and part of a team that truly makes a difference.

I’m excited to lead a team that shares this vision, working together to provide outstanding care and education in those crucial early years.

Hi, I’m Jess! I’ve been working in childcare for over 5 years and have completed both my Level 2 and Level 3 qualifications. I absolutely love watching children grow, learn and explore — especially outdoors where there’s always something new to discover!

I’m also a big fan of messy play… whether it’s paint, mud or glitter, I’m all in! ✨

I’m so excited to be taking this next step as Deputy Manager at Lots for Tots Childcare, and I can’t wait to meet all the lovely children, families and team members along the way.

Hi, I’m Emma and I’m super excited to be part of the Lots for Tots team!

I hold a Social Work degree and a Level 3 in Childcare, and I’ve been lucky enough to work in a wide range of settings caring for little ones (and not-so-little ones!). My experience includes working in nurseries, running a kids’ club for Thomas Cook, working as a Nanny in both America and the Alps, and supporting children with Autism. I’ve also had the privilege of working on a ward supporting mums and their babies during times of mental health difficulties.

I’m passionate about giving babies the very best start in life, helping their little brains to feel safe, secure, and nurtured. Families can be reassured that I will give my all to ensure their children are cared for with warmth, thought, and fun. I love being a little quirky and making even the littlest ones laugh and smile!

Outside of work, I’m mum to my own two-year-old, and I enjoy spending time outdoors, listening to music and making a good cup of loose-leaf tea.

My name is Izzie, and I’m excited to be joining the Lots for Tots team whilst working toward my Level 3 qualification. I bring with me over 8 years of experience working with children and hold a degree in Special Educational Needs and Disability.

Inclusion has always been at the heart of what I do, and I hope to use my SEN expertise to support and adapt to each child’s unique needs, ensuring inclusive care for all.

I’m eager to grow and learn alongside a dedicated team, and I’m thrilled to be part of this new venture

Hi, I’m Aimie! I’ve always loved working with children, and spending lots of time with my four younger siblings – three of whom have special educational needs – has really shaped the way I support and understand every child as an individual.

Patience, empathy and a good sense of fun are key for me! I love helping little ones grow and learn, and when I’m not in the nursery, you’ll find me listening to music or exploring somewhere new.

I can’t wait to be part of your child’s journey here at Lots for Tots Childcare.

Hi, I’m Maria!

I’ve always been passionate about working with children—growing up in a big family meant I was constantly surrounded by little ones, which naturally sparked my love for supporting and caring for them.

I pride myself on being a positive role model and I’m really passionate about making sure every child feels included, celebrated, and confident to express themselves through their own unique style of play.

I’ve recently achieved my Level 2 qualification in Early Years Education and am excited to now be working towards my Level 3. I can’t wait to help inspire and encourage the children at Lots for Tots to learn, grow, and shine in their own way!

Hi, I’m Justin and I’m pleased to be part of the team at Lots for Tots Childcare!

Having raised three children and now being a proud grandparent to four, I truly appreciate the importance of preparing healthy, nutritious, and balanced child-friendly meals. I understand early childhood nutrition and enjoy providing little ones with a variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and proteins — all tailored to suit young tastes and meet dietary needs.

From allergy-friendly options to creative mealtime presentations, my goal is to encourage healthy eating habits and to make every mealtime a positive, nurturing experience. I’m excited to bring my passion for food and care into the nursery and to play a part in supporting children’s growth and development every day.
