Partou are delighted to announce that Harrogate based nursery, Little Dragons, proudly received the Training and Development Award at this year’s National Day Nurseries Association Awards.
Recognised for their comprehensive approach to ongoing professional development, which includes personalised progression plans for team members, judges highlighted the team’s ability to break down barriers within the Early Years Sector as a key factor in its decision.
The ethos at Little Dragons revolves around creating a nurturing and supportive environment where every team member feels valued and respected. Staff wellbeing is prioritised through initiatives such as mindfulness rooms, counselling sessions and mental health support. There is also an open-door policy which encourages transparent communication, allowing staff to voice concerns and seek assistance when needed.
“As a nursery driven by a commitment to create a safe space where everybody can flourish, receiving this award means so much to us. We’re a neurodiverse team who have often faced barriers to our own progression, so breaking those down and fostering a culture of sustained shared thinking and inclusion is our passion.”
Bambi Wainwright, Nursery Manager at Little Dragons
