Hayley James
Nursery Manager – Nursery ManagementHello, I am Hayley James, and I am the Nursery Manager of Regents Park. I have over 15 years of childcare experience having worked my way up from a childcare apprentice.
I am committed to supporting my team in providing an environment for our children that is nurturing and rich in learning experiences.
I believe children learn through play and positive interactions with the people around them and that every child deserves the best. I am passionate about growing my team’s own professional development and ensuring there are opportunities for staff to expand their own knowledge and skills.
I joined Hopscotch at the end of 2020 and felt my values, previous knowledge and experience as a Nursery Manager would lend itself to the expansion of the Hopscotch Group. Working closely with my deputy manager Zoe Henson, we have been busy expanding the staff team as well as growing the occupancy of the nursery and now have a thriving nursery.
At Regents Park, we have recently renovated the building to create spacious and inviting areas that are age appropriate and support the children’s development and learning. Including an Under 2’s space that has been built for purpose, and our large outside area that has been re-landscaped to make the most of our beautiful garden.
