Meet the team
Hannah Bagshaw
Nursery Manager
I’m Hannah Bagshaw and I am the Centre Director here at Birmingham Kings Heath.
Having completed a BA Hons in Early Childhood Studies and Level 5 in Leadership and Management, I have always aspired to manage the day to day running of an outstanding setting.
Since achieving this goal I have had a wealth of experience across a range of sites and endeavour to provide outstanding quality childcare for all the children within our care.
I have a genuine passion for exciting, enabling environments and will often be found exploring these with our children - extending their learning and creating awe and wonder moments of brilliance.
The relationships that are built between staff, children and their parents whilst at nursery are lifelong and there is nothing I enjoy more than seeing our children learn and grow through their time here with us.
In my spare time I enjoy travelling with my loved ones, exploring the world and discovering new adventures.
I am looking forward to meeting you all,
Hannah Bagshaw
