Since joining Kaleidoscope 11 years ago, Alison has worked her way up from assistant childcare practitioner to room leader, deputy manager and nursery manager - now holding a key senior management role overseeing two nurseries and an out-of-school club in Leeds. She is also Ofsted's nominated person for the group and co-ordinates the company's compliance manual.
Alison's boundless energy, passion for childcare and outstanding work ethic enable her to excel in multi-tasking, and this is evident by the fact that she has recently returned from maternity leave and has already updated all the company's policies and procedures.
She is able to not only assess the needs of the business but, having started as a childcare assistant, has the ability to empathise with staff at all levels, displaying a sensitivity, objectivity and understanding rare in someone operating at a strategic level.
