Kirby

I started off at Happy Feet doing my apprenticeship which led me to gain my level 2 and level 3 qualification. I have been with Happy Feet now for many years now. I have gained lots of experience since working here, as well as completing online courses. This has led to me becoming Room Leader of the Pre-School room, PANCO, Deputy Health and Safety officer and recently been promoted to third in charge. I am also first aid trained and have recently done a refresher course. I really enjoy working at Happy Feet as it is a lovely small setting, which enables us to get to know the children inside and out. It is lovely to work with such a friendly team, it makes us feel like one big family. I also find it very rewarding being able to watch the children learn and grow throughout their time here.
