Meet the Team

Nicola Cornford - Centre Director

Nicola Cornford

Centre Director

Hello, my name is Nic and I am the Centre Director here at Busy Bees Holmes Chapel. I have over 20 years experience in childcare, working my way up from a newly qualified CACHE Level 3, to now an NVQ level 4 centre director. I also hold a PANCO certificate and a Level 3 certificate for Special Educational Needs Coordinators in Early Years Settings.

I have been a nursery manager since 2018 where I opened a newly furbished nursery with my previous company. My first Ofsted secured an outstanding certification.

My goal for Holmes Chapel, is to ensure every child has their individual needs met, allowing them to develop and progress at a rate that suits them. We want the children to have fun, participate in new experiences and develop their independence in a way that meets their needs. 

I also wish development for the team; allowing them to have responsibility for their own development and allowing them a space to be able to shine and bring their own experiences to enhance the nursery and the children’s learning.
