Director

Jill Hamer

Hello, my name is Jill Hamer and I am proud to be the Centre Director here at Busy Bees Coventry Allesley Green.

I began managing the Centre in 1999 having worked here since it opened in 1993.

I pride myself on my hands on approach which I have adopted throughout the last almost 30 years. During my time here I have seen the Centre grow into the success it is today, this is mainly down to the dedication and long service of many staff, who work closely with the children, to deliver the best quality childcare. Our aim is for all children to leave happy, confident and ready for school.

Had a look around Busy Bees today and I have to say this nursery looks excellent, all the staff were knowledgeable and diligent and some members have been working at this nursery for quite some time which shows they are highly experienced which is comforting to know, the nursery building itself was clean and in good condition and all the children looked happy and content. I will be applying for a space for my expected child.
