Hello, I’m Katie, the Nursery Manager at Newark Centre.

Now, I’m proud to lead a wonderful team that I can always rely on to provide the best care and education for our children. We take great pride in creating a loving, caring environment that truly feels like a home from home.

Our children enjoy dedicated time in our spacious garden, engaging in outdoor activities that spark curiosity and learning. We also love supporting our community with regular trips to the local library and fun summer visits to the market square.
