Munchkins Day Nursery

🎉 Happy 4-Year Work Anniversary, Dawn! 🎉

Today we are celebrating our incredible Chef Dawn and a fantastic 4 years with us!

Dawn truly is the heart of our kitchen. She works tirelessly every single day to ensure our children receive meals that are not only nutritious and delicious, but prepared with the utmost care and attention especially when it comes to allergies and individual needs. Her dedication to getting it just right makes such a difference to our setting.

Dawn goes above and beyond for everyone around her. From making sure even the pickiest of eaters leaves with a full tummy, to treating the team with her thoughtful gestures (and the occasional batch of her delicious cookies), she brings so much kindness and care into everything she does.

Her passion, commitment, and high standards shine through in every meal she prepares, and we are so lucky to have someone so talented and devoted as part of our team.

We truly wouldn’t be without you, Dawn. Thank you for everything you do you are amazing!

Here’s to many more wonderful years ahead! 🎉

🎉 Happy 8-Year Work Anniversary, Ali! 🎉

Today we’re celebrating an incredible milestone – 8 whole years with our amazing Ali!

Ali truly is a workhorse – always reliable, always hardworking, and always there when you need her. She’s an incredible support to our chef, and you can guarantee that when Ali is around, things get done.

She’s a familiar face in our Busy Bird room, but loved right across the whole setting, especially when she pops into pre-school and is greeted with a loud and excited “ALIIII!”

Ali is famous for doing her “Ali thing” sorting laundry, clearing up messes she didn’t even make… and of course, sometimes creating a few memorable ones of her own.

We are so lucky to have you, Ali. Thank you for everything you do, we truly wouldn’t be without you.

Here’s to many more years with you as part of our team! 🎉

Over the past week, our nursery has been filled with lots of excitement as we welcomed some very special visitors… duck eggs! Introducing Brian, William, Jemima and Mabel

Since arriving at nursery last week, the children have been eagerly observing the eggs each day, learning all about the duck life cycle and patiently waiting for signs that the ducklings were ready to hatch. A few days ago, the wait was finally over as the children watched in amazement while the ducklings began breaking out of their shells and entering the world.

It has been such a magical hands-on learning experience for the children, who have loved watching the ducklings grow stronger and more confident each day. There have been so many lovely conversations with our older groups about how to care for animals, what living things need to grow, and the importance of being calm, gentle, and kind.

Today was another very exciting milestone as the children got to watch the ducklings swim! There were lots of smiles, laughter, and fascination as they splashed around and explored the water so naturally.

Experiences like this create wonderful opportunities for curiosity, learning, and nurturing empathy and understanding of the natural world. We are so proud of how caring and engaged the children have been throughout the whole journey.

We’re looking forward to enjoying a few more special moments with our fluffy little visitors before they move on to their next adventure on Thursday.

✨ Happy 12-Year Work Anniversary, Sally! ✨

Today we are celebrating an absolutely amazing milestone for a truly cherished member of our Munchkin’s family

For 12 wonderful years, Sally has been part of the heart and soul of Munchkin’s. As one of our dedicated lunchtime assistants, she does so much more than her role ever asks, she is truly one of the backbones of our nursery.

Sally is a constant source of support for our staff and a loving, reassuring presence for every child she meets. Whether it’s offering a warm hug, a listening ear, or a few words of heartfelt advice, she is always there bringing comfort, kindness, and calm into even the busiest of days.

Over the years, Sally has become so much more than a colleague. She has been a guiding hand, a shoulder to lean on, and a true mother figure to so many members of our team. Her care, her warmth, and her unwavering support have touched more lives than we could ever count.

We are beyond lucky, truly blessed, to have Sally as part of our Munchkin’s family. Her love for the children and dedication to the team shines through in everything she does, and Munchkin’s simply wouldn’t be the same without her

Thank you, Sally, for 12 incredible years of kindness, love, and support. You mean the world to us all 💚

🌟 Happy 3 Year Work Anniversary, Maria! 🌟

Today we’re celebrating a very special member of the Munchkin’s family, our wonderful Maria, who has been with us for three whole years!

Maria is always there when we need her, stepping in, staying late, picking up extra hours, and supporting wherever she’s needed most. No matter which room she walks into, she gets stuck in straight away and gives it her all.

What truly makes Maria shine, though, is her heart. She comes in each day with a smile on her face, bringing warmth and positivity to the children and the team — even on days when she may be managing her own pain. That quiet strength and dedication does not go unnoticed.

Maria, you are so valued, so appreciated, and so loved across the setting. Thank you for your commitment, your kindness, and for being such an important part of our Munchkin’s family. Here’s to many more years together! 💛✨
