With a focus on sensory exploration, gentle interactions and individual care, the room supports each baby's development at their own pace, helping them build confidence, form secure relationships and discover the world around them through play.
Deputy Manager & Room Leader
Jay is the warm, nurturing heart of Dinky Dots room. As the room leader, she creates a safe, loving and stimulating environment where our youngest little Pixies can feel secure, develop confidence and enjoy their first experiences away from home. Jay leads the room team with kindness, enthusiasm and a strong understanding of each baby's individual needs. She carefully supports their routines, from feeds and naps to nappy changes, cuddles and comforting, while making sure every child receives responsive and personalised care. She plans and provides age appropriate, sensory-rich experiences that encourage babies to explore, discover and learn through play. From messy and sensory activities to music, movement, stories and outdoor adventures, Jay helps turn everyday moments into magical learning opportunities. As room leader, Jay also works closely with families, sharing their little one's progress, achievements and special moments. She builds trusting relationships with parents and carers so that each baby's home life and nursery feel connected. Above all, Jay makes sure every little Dinky Dots feels loved, listened to, celebrated and ready to grow - creating those precious early memories that make nursery feel like a second home.
