We would love to meet you in person at a tour of your chosen nursery, but in advance of your visit, you can meet some of our passionate and highly skilled team below:
Our Team
Georgina Stanley
I oversee our family of four nurseries in Brighton and Hove, ensuring that we are providing the best in early years care and education, for the children in our settings.
Madeleine Thomlinson
I’m proud to have spent over ten years in childcare, including eight years at Hove Village Nursery. As a Level 3 early years professional currently studying for a Level 5 in Operational Management, I’m passionate about creating a warm, nurturing environment where children feel safe to grow, while supporting our team to thrive.
At Hove Village, our play-based curriculum focuses on community and strong relationships, giving children secure foundations and the freedom to explore their interests. With the beach right on our doorstep, our Beach School experiences offer wonderful opportunities for children to connect with nature, build resilience, take appropriate risks, and discover the world beyond the nursery.
Sam Holman
Hello My name is Sam,
I have worked in early years since leaving school, gaining a range of qualifications from NVQ’s to my BA in Childhood and Youth Studies.
I have 2 children of my own, one of which attends the nursery too.
I adore story telling when with the children, which is why I feel best suited to my role here at our Hove Library nursery.
I have a particular passion for aiding supportive and effective settling in processes for babies, ever since having my own children,
I am also extremely passionate about ensuring our team receive training to the highest standard to equip all with the skillset to feel most confident in their roles.
Macie Tullett
I am a qualified Early Years Educator with a Level 5 Diploma in Leadership and Management and have progressed through my career within Hove Village. This journey has given me a strong understanding of our values and a real passion for delivering high-quality early years care.
I am committed to supporting the growth and development of our setting, our staff, and the families we work with. Creating a nurturing, inclusive environment where children feel safe, confident, creative and inspired is at the heart of everything I do.
I look forward to welcoming new families and working closely with children, parents, and staff to ensure every child receives the best possible start to their education.
Sarah Crouch
Before moving to Brighton, I grew up on a farm in the countryside. I have a passion for animals and particularly horse riding where I competed for Team GB in 2018! I love being outdoors but also love being wrapped up warm with a blanket, book and a hot chocolate!
Hannah Copping
I started my career as a primary school teacher, where I specialised in Science and climate education through the ‘Our City Our World’ project, as well as outdoor learning. In my spare time, I love spending time outdoors, weightlifting, and painting.
