Hello, my name is Emma Woods. I am a fully qualified nursery nurse and have worked for Busy Bees since May 2006. In August 2011 I completed my Degree in Early Years Practice for which I achieved a 1st class award. I have also recently completed my Early Years Professional Status which recognises my ability to lead practice and deliver high quality care for children. I also carry with me a number of other qualifications including first aid at work, paediatric first aid, health and safety qualifications and many more.
Since working for Busy Bees I have enjoyed working with children, families, and the Busy Bees team. It is lovely to see children achieve and develop so well. I feel we have a very good team here who work well and provide the very best for children and their families.
