Manager's Message
Hello, my name is Sophie, and I am delighted to be the Manager here at St Joseph’s. I joined Paint Pots in 2018 and have enjoyed working in a variety of roles, gaining valuable experience in supporting children’s learning and development. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where every child can thrive.
I believe strongly in building strong partnerships with families and working closely with staff to ensure children feel valued, happy, and confident.
As a mum of three, I understand just how important those early years are and how quick they go, and I bring both my professional knowledge and personal experience to my role.
My goal is to ensure that every child that walks through our door feels welcomed, supported, excited to learn and most importantly has fun!
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my children, exploring the outdoors and frequent visitors to the zoo!
