The Staff Team
We are proud of our staff and together we have more than fifty years experience of working in childcare. We are all Mums ourselves and understand the joys and challenges of raising children.
We have high level qualifications which are approved by the Children’s Workforce Development Council. Currently we have three members of staff qualified to, or working towards, level 4, two undertaking level 3 training. Two existing staff hold and another member is working towards level 2. Additionally members of staff participate in a variety of training provided by Essex County Council and professional consultants.
There is always, at least, one member of staff at every session who holds a relevant and up to date First Aid certificate, practitioners are also qualified in Food Hygiene, Health and Safety and Child Protection, meeting all regulatory requirements.
Our staff ratios are high; we have four or five staff at each session with a maximum of twenty children per session. This exceeds the minimum requirements of
Children under 3: 1:4
Children over 3: 1:8
At regular meetings we undertake curriculum planning and discuss children’s progress and current needs. Ongoing training, support and development of staff enable us to provide quality care for each child.
All staff and volunteers at The Grove Pre-School are police checked and have CRB clearance.
