Angela Gallagher
I have worked in childcare for 30 years having completed my NNEB. I have worked in various roles, from social service day nurseries, Romanian orphanages, nannying for triplets before going on to manage nurseries. I enjoy meeting parents and children and nurturing the families during our settling in sessions.
Myself and my long serving team provide a fun, stimulating and creative environment for all the children who join the nursery.
Sarah Hulse
I have been in childcare for 20 years. After completing my NNEB, I went to work as a nanny in America. On returning, I carried on working as a nanny in the UK before working in France as a childcarer in a hotel for the ski season. I have been at Asquith Nursery, Reigate since 2003, working my way up from Supervisor to Assistant Manager. As a mum of 2 children who attended the nursery, I know how hard it can be to leave your little one so I am able to nurture parents during this time.
Tina Oliver
I have been in childcare for over 20 years. I have worked at Reigate since April 2015 where I started as a room supervisor in our 2-3 year old room and I was also 3rd in charge for the nursery and was then promoted to Assistant Manager in 2016. I am the Current IOSH for the nursery. I enjoy watching the children grow and flourish while they are at the nursery.
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!
