Who We Are
Sally-Anne Butcher (Early Years Teacher Status)- Director
Sally began her career in childcare aged 21. straight out of performing arts Schools she knew her only passion other than dance was working with children.
After a few years and different nurseries later Sally started her family and felt it no longer worked for them so she became a childminder, looking after children in her own home. It was only a short 2 years later she moved house and expanded her business working with 2 other staff members each day and 12 under 5’s!
Sally loves the idea of a smaller setting, providing high quality care in a homely environment. “They are only young once, let them be, let them play, let them be happy”
Sally’s hoping her dreams of opening her own setting will be successful, “It’s a passion not a job”
