I have been at Lee Park Nursery since 2005, starting off as a Nursery Nurse and working my way up through the posts of Room Leader, Deputy Manager and now most recently Nursery Manager.

I am passionate about Early Years and providing the best experience for all children within the nursery.
Danielle Lait
I have been at Lee Park Nursery and Preschool since December 2007.
I started at Lee Park Nursery and Preschool as a Nursery Nurse, after qualifying with a Diploma in Level 3 Child Care and Education.
After working in the under two’s room as a room Leader I decided to transition to the Preschool Room for the same role.
During this time I became Third in Charge then was promoted to Deputy Manager in May 2016.
I have a passion to help children grow and develop to their full potential.
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!
Why Bright Horizons
The Bright Horizons passion and enthusiasm for providing high-quality care isn’t just common knowledge within our own business – we’ve also gained some impressive accolades from external sources for excellence as both a childcare provider, and as an employer. We are the only childcare company to have been listed for the last 11 years as one of the country’s top 50 “Great Places to Work” by the Great Place to Work Institute.
