Hi there, I am a mum of 2 amazing children. I have worked at Hucclecote Playgroup since May 2024. I have 14 years experience in childcare and previously worked in a nursery setting.

I have over 11 years’ experience working with children, predominantly with preschool children. I started working at Hucclecote playgroup in 2026 during my eldest son’s time here.

I have been working at Hucclecote Playgroup as Finance Administrator for 19 years. Generally known as “The Money Lady”, I look after staff wages, all aspects of Local Authority funding, as well as fees and fundraising. I raise invoices, pay the bills and keep the books.

I work from home, but I regularly visit playgroup in the morning or at home time. If you have any questions about fees or funding, don’t hesitate to get in touch.
