My name is Priscilla, also known as CeCe. I am a qualified Level 3 Early Years Educator and have been working at Building Blocks since October 2018. I have worked with every age group, from our Beautiful Babies through to our Nursery School, which I am particularly fond of. I am currently training for my Level 5 qualification in Childcare and Leadership, which I believe will support my current role and future career goals. I enjoy imaginative play, dancing, and singing. Away from the setting, I travel the world inspiring and comforting others with music, which I have been doing professionally for the past 24 years. I bring my bubbly personality to play and love engaging children in wonderful activities.

Hello, my name is Lucy. I have been at Building Blocks since 2010. I hold a Level 3 qualification in Childcare and an Honours Degree in Sociology. I have experience working with all age groups and particularly enjoy working with babies and toddlers. It gives me great pleasure to teach children the foundations of life, nurturing and supporting them as they grow into confident explorers and helping them create special bonds. I have a lovely son called Will, who is football-mad. Together, we love being outdoors and supporting our teams.

My name is Shannon, and I have been at Building Blocks since May 2015. I work three days a week. I love spending time with the children and have worked with our babies, toddlers, and pre-school during my time here. I recently completed my Level 3 qualification in Childcare and am currently training for my Level 5 in Childcare and Leadership. I enjoy using all that I have learned to provide exciting and developmental activities for the children. When I’m not at work, I love spending time with my four children. 😊

I am a bubbly, approachable, and polite person with previous experience working in a nursery, caring for babies and toddlers aged 3 months to 2 years.
