Chelsey Hewlett Manager I have been working in childcare for 10 years and have been in management for 6 years. I really enjoy developing people and helping them to become really great practitioners. I also really enjoy seeing the children come through from toddlers and leave the pre-school having had a great start to their early years education. Outside of preschool, I am a mum of 2 who enjoys reading and walking my Goldendoodle called Teddy. |
