Kristen Payne

Hi, my name is Kristen and I am the Play Leader at the Playgroup.

I joined the team in October 2022 as a play leader and offered the lead role in July 2023.

I have worked in nurseries for the past 12 years and have been a fully qualified practitioner for the last 10 years.

Outside of work I am a mum to 2 beautiful boys and in any free time I have, I love to read, do diamond art and watch Netflix

Hello! I'm Kelly.  I've been a play practitioner here since October 2023, but have been working in Childcare since 2021.  I have four children of my own, two cats and lots of chickens!

My favourite things about working  in childcare are watching how children's language skills develop, and playing and learning outdoors - there's so much to see!

When I'm not working I love to craft (especially crochet, and ESPECIALLY if its rainbowy), watch documentaries, and play games and puzzles with my family.
