Staff
In addition to people’s qualifications and experience, we only select staff with the right personality and attributes for working at The Vineyard Organic Day Nursery – people who support our organic life principles & our learning policies.
Being cared for by special individuals who totally support our ethos:
All our staff have been cleared by the DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service). We also thoroughly check their personal and employment references.
We have a Head of Unit for each age group. Two staff members are present with each group at all times.
Most staff are already qualified in Early Year Childcare & Education NVQ Level 2 or Level 3 and we support our Level 2 staff to keep training towards their Level 3 goals.
In order to maintain a high level of quality and childcare standards, performance is continually monitored and all staff have the opportunity to participate in continual professional development and training throughout the year. Regular team meetings, in-house & online training further promote a feeling of team spirit and encourage staff to feel proud of the important role they play in your child’s development.
