Nursery World - Spotlight on ... Judith Robinson, Manager, Pre-School Playgroup

Name: Judith Robinson

Position: Manager at Embsay with Eastby Pre-School Playgroup in Embsay, North Yorkshire.

- How did you go from being on the pre-school's committee to manager?

After joining the parent committee I did my pre-school diploma and started working at the playgroup on a voluntary basis, which led to a paid position. I left after having my third child and worked as a childminder until joining the committee again. Then I started my foundation degree and was given the position of manager.

- Has doing the degree improved your practice?

Doing the degree has definitely improved my practice and helped me see how important it is to work as a team and involve parents. I have loved doing the degree and I thank the college, staff and parents for their support.
