As well as having their own children, Linda trained as an NNEB in 1992 and has worked in the childcare sector since then. Claire qualified as a primary school teacher in 1995 and worked as a teacher from year 6 to year 1 for over 16 years and as an assistant head teacher for 5 of those years.
Their first nursery was acquired over 18 years ago and since then they have carefully developed the business, ensuring that every element retains a personal, family feel. As parents to 4 and 3 children respectively, they fully understand the importance of high quality care alongside a dynamic and exciting learning environment.
“Through the dedication and hard work of our fantastic team, our Little Pips nurseries offer our children the perfect balance of ensuring that they develop into wonderfully creative, inquiring and confident little learners full of fun and ready to explore!
At Little Pips Nursery we believe that full children are happy children! Our dedicated cook prepares all snacks and meals from fresh and we work very hard to ensure our menu provides healthy, balanced meals for all of our children.
The children have a healthy morning snack, a two-course lunch, an afternoon snack and milk and a two-course tea (if staying on after 4pm). All meals and snacks are complimented with water or milk.
Our cook is a talented baker, always ensuring a healthy approach is taken to treats such as cakes. The children also take part in baking a snack once a week which they thoroughly love!
