Meet The Team

 

Karen McPhee Karen McPhee is the founder and owner of Active Kids. After 30 years working in the financial services industry it was time for a change. I wanted to do something worthwhile and as childhood obesity is constantly in the news, I worried for the future generations and decided to try and make a difference. I am pleased to say that we have been very successful in this area due to our combination of a balanced diet and physical activity.
christine-glendinning Christine Glendinning joined Active Kids as a supervisor at the start in February 2004. She qualified as a Nursery Nurse in 1975 and at that time worked at Menston Nursery. She is primarily our cook but likes to spend time with the children too whenever she gets the opportunity!
rachel-plat Rachael Platt is our deputy manager, joining us in July 2008. In September 1998 she qualified with a National Diploma in Childhood Studies but drifted into office work initially. As Rachael was using Active Kids to care for her own son, once the role of Deputy Manager became available she applied. She has very quickly become a great team leader and all the staff and parents are very happy with her contribution so far.
Kim Mooney Kim Mooney joined us in October 2005 as a pre-school nursery assistant after a short time working for First Class Childcare. She has already completed her NVQ Level 2 in Childcare and is currently working towards the NVQ Level 3. Kim works in all areas with the children.
Rosie Soloman Rosie Solomon joined Active Kids in September 2007. After a work placement with us earlier in the year Rosie decided she wanted to work for Active Kids and waited until a nursery nurse post became available. Rosie has completed the BTEC National Diploma in Early Years and is currently working towards the Foundation Degree in Early Years. Rosie works with our Pre School children.
Sarah Longbottom Sarah Longbottom joined us in October 2005. She achieved the Diploma in Nursery Nursing in 2002 and is based in our Big Toddler Room with our 2-3 year olds. Sarah has previously worked for Kinderare and has over 5 years experience.
Carol Mitchell Carol Mitchell joined us in October 2006 and has passed her NVQ Level 3. She primarily works in the baby room but occasionally works with the 1 – 2 year olds too. Carol has previously worked in the after school club in Ireland Wood Krayola Kids and also as a dinner lady at Adel St John the Baptist C of E Primary School.
Courtney Moore Courtney Moore is a nursery nurse who joined Active Kids in April 2008 after previously working in the crèche at Dragons Health Club. Courtney passed the BTEC National Diploma in Early Years in 2006 and has recently passed her NVQ1 in British Sign Language (BSL). She has also undertaken courses in Food Hygiene and First Aid for Children. Courtney loves planning activities for the 1 – 2 year olds, especially the messy ones.
Louise Newsome Louise Newsome joined Active Kids in June 2008. Her own son was being cared for by us and as she does not have any childcare qualifications, she was initially employed to do some administration. However, once we saw how great she is with the children that soon changed and she became a nursery assistant!She is now working towards her NVQ Level 3 in Childcare and is mainly working in the baby room.
Sarah Gaunt Sarah Gaunt is the newest member of our team and she came to us to provide support to a deaf family we have with us. Sarah has achieved the NVQ Level 3 in British Sign Language and is teaching sign language to our staff and children too!
