Hi, my name is Sarah. I have worked in childcare for over 11 years, as well as having my own two children. I first started out by volunteering at my son's pre-school, just one day a week. Within a month they asked me to work for them, so I looked into completing my childcare training. After two years I was made up to the deputy manager position at that pre-school. Jo and I then decided to open up Little Lions together and have loved every minute of it. I am level three and the named Designated Person, which means I support families that are working with children services or need extra support through early intervention and I take the safeguarding lead. I am the named deputy manager at Little Lions. I have my own key group of children and we are called the caterpillars group.

Hi, my name is Lili and I am 21 years old. I always knew I wanted to work with children, so I went to college straight from school to gain my level 3 qualification in childcare. I joined the Little Lions team at the beginning of November 2020 and have loved every moment. I've enjoyed building bonds with the team and of course my lovely key group, the Tadpoles!

Hi, my name is Fleur. I have nearly five years childcare experience and I joined Little Lions in April 2022.
