Group Registered Manager
NINA
My name is Nina Farzaneh and I am the nursery manager for Little Bears Nursery. I have built up considerable experience in the day to day operations and management of both new and established nurseries, having worked with children for 15 years and my role over the last ten years as a key decision maker and member of the senior management. I am also a parent and so fully understand the importance of choosing the right nursery with the right staff team. We also recognize the importance of our partnership with the parents and children in achieving the best results.
My qualifications include the level 5 diploma in Early Years and Childcare as well as a degree in English studies. I have been fortunate to have spent the last 15 years working in a variety of settings with different Early years philosophies and teaching approaches, different people, cultures and management styles. This invaluable knowledge and experience has helped to shape the Little Bears methodology:
– At Little Bears, me and my team will create a loving, nurturing and safe environment.
– At Little Bears, we create experiences and memories for your children;
– At Little Bears, children will be encouraged to develop so that they flourish and achieve their potential.
We are extremely passionate about Little Bears and therefore have invested in a staff team that is fully qualified. This ensures that our setting meets all the Early Years requirements at all times and provide high-quality care to children and their families.
We hope that we can demonstrate our vision and approach to childcare by welcoming you to our nursery.
