Meet the Team
George Fraser
I graduated in Hotel and Business management from Strathclyde University and worked in bars, restaurants and hotels in the Highlands and Glasgow. Whilst managing a large bar and restaurant in Zurich I had my Montessori epiphany when I met and then worked for a couple who ran a bi-lingual Montessori nursery, who persuaded me to start working towards my International Montessori Diploma. I completed my diploma after moving to London and also have Early Years Professional Status.
I have worked in and managed 3 Montessori nurseries in London before joining Asquith in their Finsbury Park branch. In April 2016 I worked with the Montessori group (including Haydon Hall) and helped and supported them with the migration as part of the Asquith group. In December 2016 I helped open and manage Hampton Wick Montessori before moving to Haydon Hall in July. Haydon Hall is a unique and wonderful setting with a fantastic, experienced team and I am honoured to be a part of this amazing place.

I worked in IT then took a career break when I had my children. My son attended a Montessori nursery and it became my dream to re-train and work in a similar setting one day. I qualified as a Montessori teacher in 2001 and joined this setting and have been here for 16 years! While working at Haydon Hall I decided to further my education and graduated with a BA (Hons) in Working with Children and Young People. Haydon Hall has a warm, enthusiastic team and this is what makes it such a special place. I am proud to be a part of this wonderful Montessori setting.

After graduating from Middlesex University with a Business Studies degree, I worked in the Marketing industry for ten years. I then took a career break to have children; my children attended a Montessori nursery, which inspired me to become a Montessori teacher. I started as a teaching practice student at Haydon Hall nine years ago, after qualifying as a Montessori teacher (Level Four). I moved on to become Room Leader and now I am Assistant Manager. I have experience in all the different rooms and currently work in Preschool during the mornings. I am passionate about working with children and ensuring we as a team provide a stimulating happy environment, which helps the children reach their full potential. Haydon Hall Montessori is such a warm and friendly place and it is pleasure to be part of the Haydon Hall Montessori team.
Candy Floss
Hi, my name is Candy Floss, I joined Bright Horizons in March 2010 as the ‘Super Safety Hero’ to help nursery children stay safe and manage risks. My role as a Health and Safety Super Hero is unique to Bright Horizons and I’m in every nursery, 365 days a year.
Back in 2010, I saw a job advert for a Zebra Super Safety Hero – I was very excited, applied and was invited for an interview with several other zebras. We were interviewed by all the children who then voted on which of us would be their Super Safety Hero. It was hoof biting but I was thrilled when they told me I was the most voted for by the children who all loved me because of my cape and bag. My bag is very special, if something fits inside, it’s a choking hazard. You might be wondering how I got my name. The children in our nurseries chose five names and voted for their favourite. I love it as it’s unique, I mean have you ever heard of a zebra called Candy Floss? Exactly!
