Evolution Childcare is looking for hardworking, dedicated individuals with a love of childcare to join the team at The Abbey. As a team we work together to provide safe and stimulating learning environments for the children to investigate and explore to help them learn and achieve to their fullest potential. If you feel that you have the attributes to become a member of Evolution Childcare we would love to hear from you.
I have been working for Evolution childcare for 15 years starting as a part time practitioner. I worked within the Baby and Toddler Room to begin with working closely alongside my room manager to gain the knowledge and skills needed whilst completing my level 3 in childcare. After a few years of extending my knowledge and experience I progressed my career and became promoted to room manager in the early learner room where I continued to develop my knowledge. I then moved back to toddlers and completed a team leadership course to help me to manage a larger team. Shortly after being moved back to toddler I was offered the position of health and safety officer which again extended my knowledge in a different area but also helped me within my room, I completed many related courses such as health and safety in the work place, food safety, first aid and also child protection.
To keep me up to date with the latest guidelines I also completed prevent training and managing a team which helped me to be successful within my role which resulted in me becoming promoted to Assistant Deputy Manager at the end of 2015. This promotion gave me the opportunity to learn the business side of the company and how it runs from a mangers point of view and I have been able to further my knowledge and skills in order for me to pass to my team.
I am currently completing my level 3 in business management where I am learning about running a successful business and I’m looking forward to putting these skills into practice now that I have now been promoted to Nursery Manager.
After a temporary position working at local childcare centres, I was successful in gaining a position here at the Abbey where I was welcomed with open arms and I haven’t looked back since. I have received lots and training and support from the team to gain more knowledge and understanding of Early Years and children’s development. It was here that Evolution Childcare I was lucky enough to complete my level 3 in Childcare. Since becoming part of The Abbey family, I have loved watching the children learn and grow throughout their journey, whilst taking on exciting new challenges each day. I was promoted to room manager of the Toddler room and gained lots of experience and knowledge working alongside the team. I have also developed within the company and progressed to Assistant Manager, this role is something I really enjoy and I am loving working alongside my management team to gain new skills and knowledge.
After working at another day nursery for over 11 years, Evolution Childcare took me on as a childcare practitioner within the toddler room, working closely alongside my room manager. From this, I gained lots of knowledge of how Evolution Childcare works, and shortly after this I was promoted to Baby Room Manager. I believe all my experience and knowledge will support me within this role. I have achieved my level 3 qualification in childcare and I am currently at university studying BA HONS open degree. Since working for Evolution Childcare I have completed many relevant courses such as first aid, food safety and leadership and management.
I have worked for Evolution Childcare since May 2016. I went into Childcare straight from school doing an apprenticeship where I realised that this was the career path I wanted to take and progress in. I then attended Edge Hill University to a BA Hons degree level 6 in Leadership and Management. This led me to have the skills and knowledge to enhance children’s development. This then led me to become Room Manager in September 2018.
