michele - area senco
Hi there, my name is Michele and I am the Area SENCO at Jack In The Box Nursery's.
I have been working with children for 23 years after completing my NNEB – Diploma in Nursery Nursing. The past 20 years of my career has been dedicated to working with children with special educational needs and disabilities in a variety of settings, such as specialist schools, mainstream schools and in the community. During this time, I have built up a wealth of knowledge, experience and training, some of this includes Makaton training, working with children with autism, social communication needs training, PECS (picture exchange communication system) training and Earlybird training, which supports parents to develop their understanding of autism and discover ways to support their child.
For the last 10 years I have been a committed member of the Jack In the Box team, where I have worked as a SENCO and manager. My focus has always been for all children to come into our settings and ensure that their learning and development opportunities are unique, enabling them to reach their full potential, whilst also supporting and working alongside the families.
During my time at Jack In The Box my passion and desire grew to give even extra support and inclusion to our children with SEND. With the support of our directors Zoe and Jenny my role as area SENCO was created so that I can dedicate my time to support our children, families and invaluable staff in ensuring that we strive to do our very best for the children to grow, learn and achieve their full potential whilst at Jack In The Box.
I look forward to welcoming you and your child as they start their exciting Jack In the Box journey.
gill - nursery support
My name is Gill and I am the Nursery Support Officer across all 6 Jack in the Box settings. My job entails visiting all the nurseries and supporting the Manager and team members in various areas of nursery life, whether it's supporting with curriculum planning, effective observations of children or general support and advice around the children.
I qualified as a NNEB nursery nurse in 1994, after which I spent many years working within the YMCA as a child care practitioner in various day nursery settings. In 1998, I went on to do my NVQ level 4 diploma in advanced childcare and education, which then led me to management within these settings.
In 2010 I began working for Jack In The Box at Kings Langley, when my daughter started at the setting. I have absolutely loved my time working as part of the Jack In The Box family. I have picked up so much knowledge along the way and have been lucky enough to have plenty of positive experiences. My role as Nursery Support Officer enables me to use my skills as a people person to really help the teams to maximise the experiences the children have in the settings with good planning, effective observations and positive role modelling of good childcare practice.
