Hayley

Deputy Manager

My name is Hayley and I am the Deputy Manager at Monkey Puzzle Woodford.

I have worked in childcare for 23 years, starting my childcare journey at a small nursery group in London in 2002 working as a nursery assistant working towards my childcare qualifications and gaining 8 years of experience in my role. After that, I joined a childcare solutions in 2010. I started my career as a Nursery Nurse and soon progressed working my way to senior management as an assistant manager and operational support supporting 4 nurseries within Essex and surrounding areas.

My biggest strength is developing strong professional relationships with parents and stakeholders, I am definitely a peoples person! As well as promoting strong team relationships and a positive can do attitude. I am very trustworthy and have a huge passion for early years and helping children to grow and develop into lifelong learners.

I pride myself in being professional and relatable to all and ensuring the children and families are at the heart of what I do putting each child’s safety, development and welfare as my priority.

I joined Monkey Puzzle Woodford as I was looking for a new challenge and to be a part of a new opening. I met Nosh and instantly grew a relationship with her. I was excited about the future for the first time and was encouraged by my senior manager, who grew my potential and supported my transition.
