Loveders nursery is a family run business operating since 1983. The nursery is run by a highly qualified and experienced team of staff and we are proud to say that many have been with us for over 10 years.
Katrina joined Loveders in 1990 and has worked her way up from Nursery Practitioner to Manager, gaining a BA in Early Childhood Studies and Early Years Teacher Status (EYTS) in the process.
Monika started in 2009. She has an MA in Pedagogy and her enthusiasm to extend her knowledge and training saw her immediately enrol on the Early Years Professional Status training course. As Curriculum Leader, Monika leads practice across the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). Monica is also the lead SENCO supervising the provision for our children with additional needs.
Georgia joined the team in 2017 as a Nursery Practitioner, having previously worked in a school with reception aged children. Georgia has recently been promoted to Supervisor and leads practice for our 3 and 4 year olds.
Enrique, a qualified teacher specialising in music, designs and delivers our Spanish and music program to all of the children.

Beth joined us in 2014 and has since gained her level 3 qualification. She has many years experience working with under twos and leads the team in Little Loveders.
Jess supports Beth in the running of the baby room.
Alisha keeps everything going at Loveders behind the scenes, responsible for all aspects of administration.
The majority of our Nursery Practitioners have at least a Level 3 NVQ qualification in childcare or are working towards it and several have gone on to obtain degrees and post graduate qualifications in Early Years subjects. All staff have undergone an enhanced DBS check and complete paediatric first aid and safeguarding training on a regular basis.
