Karen

Nursery Manager

My name is Karen and I am the Manager of the Marleigh nursery.

My passion for working with children began when I had my own amazing family and I found myself looking at the world through their eyes and seeing how their personalities and interests developed with their experiences. I moved from my career in finance to specialise in the Early Years childcare sector working at a preschool and primary school whilst supporting children with autism and SEND until finally joining the senior management team at Monkey Puzzle Cambridge 3 1/2 years ago as a Deputy Manager.

I work with an incredible team of educators who use their skills and care to nurture the children at Marleigh. This includes planning for their next steps and development, using activities and resources to inspire awe and wonder in their learning, and most importantly, giving the best cuddles if needed.

We also love to share the nursery with our parents and welcome them to our open events, which are filled with activities and celebrations.
