Hi  I’m Abbie, I am the 0-2 Room Lead and I work from Tuesday to Friday each week. I’ve always loved being around children and from a young age knew I wanted to have a career in childcare. I have a HNC in childhood practice and after going to college and having experiences in a range of school, home and private settings I have settled so well at Annie’s! I enjoy spending time outdoors with the children as it reminds me of how I grew up - playing outside in the woods with my sibling and cousins, and having to be chased inside at bedtime with my childhood best friend as we had too much fun playing outside! 

At home I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, I am a social person and love going out for food and a few drinks! I have 2 cocker spaniels who I enjoy walking and love to explore new places near and far! I love baking when I have some spare time to whip up a cake or fancy pieces. I love a good horror film and enjoy going to concerts.
At work I enjoy having fun and not taking things too seriously! We can all be ourselves and have a good laugh together as a team. I love seeing every child’s smiley face and seeing them enjoy their time with us at Annie’s really does make my day. I am passionate about creating a nurturing setting with lots of fun and I think as a team we do a great job of this.

Hello, I’m Anne. Most of you will know me, as I have been part of the Annie’s family for years within both the Caterpillars and Butterflies.
I currently work within the Caterpillar Room on Mondays, Wednesday and Thursdays and love welcoming in all the little ones with a cuddle and catching up with what they have been up to out with the setting.
I have worked within the Early Years Sector for over 40 years and have experienced a wide range of opportunities within that time! I had a great 16 years working within the social work sector with Child Protection and 2 years within the family mental health teams. Over my career I have obtained my full qualifications in early years and have a diploma in child abuse and neglect.
Whilst at work I love watching the children grow and develop in their various ways as we achieve new milestones together. I love being part of the Annie’s family and love the small setting where I can get to know all of the parents, children, and staff as we grow together.
Out with the setting and my career in early years I have great fun playing and looking after my grandsons Liam, Josh and Millar -  I also enjoy taking time to relax and enjoy the sun with my friends as we pop away to Spain to catch up and make new memories in the Spanish sunshine. I love to travel and have seen so many places of the world across my travels but Spain holds a close place in my heart and I love to return at least one a year!  
If I’m not busy with the children both at Annie’s, or my grandsons you will probably find me tucking into a lovely afternoon tea with my friends or family!

Hello, I’m Anita! I joined the team at Annie’s in May 2022 and I work within the 0-2 (Caterpillar) Room on Mondays, Tuesday's, Thursdays, and Fridays. Anita is currently undertaken her SVQ level 3. I worked with children when I was in my twenties before taking a break and taking on the challenge of being manageress of a local pub. I try to look at life is with a fun and positive outlook and am a bubbly person, which I feel which has a nurturing effect on the children. My favourite thing about working with children is how funny they are and how much they make me laugh. Out with work I also enjoy reading books, going for walks and socialising with my friends and family.
