      Hello! Ive worked at Chaldon Pre School since 2013. My daughter attended between 2010 and 2012 and she loved it! I love watching the children’s self esteem build as they settle in, make friends and grow in confidence.

      Favourite quote: “There’s no WiFi in the Forest, but you’ll find a better connection.”

      Hi, my name is Emma

      I love working with children because they are full of energy and curiosity. With over five years of experience, working as a Higher Level Teaching Assistant and then going on to specialise in Speech and Language I have a passion for communication. I believe language is the bridge that connects a child’s world to the world around them, unlocking their ability to understand, express, and explore.
