Meet The Team

Each and every member of staff understands the importance of building supportive relationships
with the children in our care so that they can nurture their learning journey.

Angela

Manager

I have been fortunate to have worked at Catherington Nursery for over 20 years ( I can’t believe it, where have the years evaporated to?) I absolutely love working with all the other lovely ladies and seeing our little people grow in so many ways in their time with us. While I am not working I adore spending time with my expanding gorgeous family, grandson number three arrived in August 2023.

Pippa

Assistant

I live in Horndean with my partner and our 2 children. I started working at Catherington Nursery after my son left the setting to go to ‘big school’. In my spare time I love to go for walks, days out my family, and we love to travel to new places on holiday. I also enjoy most sports, especially Stoolball which I play as part of a league. I am also a big animal lover!
