Pros

- Management are generally supportive and willing to help where possible - Free meals everyday - Nursery has a strong team culture with team helping each other where they can - Positive parent partnerships are encouraged and maintained especially with use of the app - The nursery is clean and well maintained. The children do seem happy and settled and their wellbeing is prioritised

Cons

- Staff are expected to complete certain training requirements in our own time. Spent a long time doing the 'attensi' training a couple of months back and still have not been told if/when we get our overtime or TOIL - Pressure to attend events outside of working hours including weekends and several evenings a month affecting work-life balance - Rooms are above capacity and room managers being told to "move a child to another room" for the day

Pros

I have only been with N since August 2021 and I felt like part of the team from the moment I walked into the Nursery. The management team are amazing, they are so supportive, always there to give support, guidance and just to lend an ear (if needed). The overall team are also amazing, everyone works together and will give every other room support, where possible.

Cons

In fairness I haven't come across any yet from the Nursery that I am in.
