'I love working with children at preschool age where learning is a magical process of awe and wonder. Working with the Curiosity Approach gives me the opportunity to spark imagination and create exciting environments using natural and authentic resources.' 

'Both my children have been part of the Hedgehogs Family and seeing them learn and develop within an outstanding setting, I wanted to become a part of that journey and work within a well established team. 

I am passionate about working with children, I love to watch children develop new skills, grow, learn and be a part of their learning journey.

Seeing children happy, and being able to provide them with opportunities and experiences makes my role very rewarding.'

'Being part of an amazing team which allows us to help our little learners to flourish and grow into amazing, independent human beings is just the best. 

Since becoming a mummy to my two beautiful boys, it has become more apparent to me how these younger years are the most important to the children's future.'

'I’m passionate about working with children, and creating a happy environment for them to enjoy. I love getting the children involved in singing and giving them the individual support they need.

I originally joined Hedgehogs Hempstead because of their fantastic outdoor programme and enjoy getting to go along on outdoor adventures. I have a great relationship with the team and am happy coming to work knowing I work with equally minded people who are as passionate as I am.'

'I’ve chosen to work in childcare as it is something I am deeply passionate about. Having the opportunity to watch our little ones at Hedgehogs grow and develop new skills is just truly wonderful, and I couldn’t be happier working alongside such an amazing team.'

'My name is Ami and I have previously worked with children as a TA. I am so interested in helping children learn and develop, especially using the curiosity approach. I love seeing children develop their characters and come alive both in group and individual activities. I already enjoy being part of the Hedgehogs Family and all the children are amazing.'

'I've always wanted to work in childcare as watching the children learn, develop new skills and grow into their own person makes me so proud and happy to be a part of the first stages of their life.

I’m so grateful to be here because the Hedgehogs Family made me feel a part of the team as soon as I came in. Everyone here is so kind and makes this place feel like a second home. The team’s dedication to their jobs is so inspiring and they are so helpful when it comes to my learning and my Apprenticeship work.’

'I've just left school and childcare is something I wanted to do. I looked into Hedgehogs and I liked their ethos and that they do lots of outdoor adventures. 

I have settled in quickly with the team and enjoy working at the Hempstead Preschool.'
