Nursery Manager
Danielle Nicholls

Hello, my name is Danielle, and I鈥檓 the Nursery Manager at Children 1st Plumtree.

I have worked in early years education for 18 years, beginning my career as an apprentice and progressing through a variety of roles before moving into management. This experience has given me a real understanding of how important these early years are in shaping each child鈥檚 development.

I鈥檓 passionate about creating a warm, homely and nurturing environment where every child feels safe, valued and confident to be themselves. Every child is unique, and I believe in giving them the individual care, encouragement and opportunities they need to grow, develop and thrive.

It鈥檚 a privilege to be part of these important early years and to work alongside our families, giving every child the very best start to their journey with us.
