Meet the Team
Helen Burton
Nursery Manager
My name is Helen and I am a long standing member of the team. I started at the nursery when it first opened in 2003 as a Nursery Nurse after qualifying from college with my CACHE Diploma In Childcare & Education (level 3). I have seen the nursery grow and develop over the years and worked my way up the promotional ladder to get where I am today. I am currently covering Rebecca Wall's Maternity Leave,
I also hold a BA (Hons) Degree in Early Childhood Studies and also what is more commonly known now as Early Years Teacher Status (EYT). I have also completed courses in Senco training, First Aid at Work, paediatric first aid and Food Hygiene and my level 5 in Leadership and Management.
I have always been passionate about my job. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing children achieve and grown as they develop their own little personalities. I like to ensure that this is at the forefront of what I do and that this passion can be embedded into the strong staff team that we have here at Guiseley, to ensure that children are highly cared for and given as many learning opportunities as possible.
I also pride myself on communication and partnership with parents, some of which I have know for some years as they have had older children that have come through the nursery.
I am a full time working mum, my son attended the nursery and started school in September 2016. This has been a great foundation for his learning and development. The things I have seen him achieve are amazing and I hope this continues for our current and new parents as we welcome them to Busy Bees. Nursery life is a great platform for young children’s development and well-being.

Room Team
Hi, We are the Sunflowers team! We support the eldest children of the nursery with their transition to school, following a Preschool Project every Summer. We know how important it is to help support children with their 'school readiness', from being able to dress themselves and learning to use the toilet without assistance,to a good understanding of the values of sharing and turn taking. We focus on these plus the educational elements of the curriculum to ensure the best start for every child.
Room Team
Hello, we are the Tulips team and we support two to two and a half year olds each day. Tulip's children are a creative bunch and love to make a mess ! We enjoy supporting them with the fine motor skills and communication by providing them with many different play opportunities in the water, sand, dough, gloop, baking, chalking, sticking and gluing, construction and role play to name but a few ! They also love stories and songs and have favourite rhymes that we sing using props and puppets.
