Monkey Puzzle Bromley prides itself on having a highly qualified nursery team. All our staff are qualified to a minimum NVQ Level 2 with the majority of staff holding either NNEB (National Nursery Examination Board) or NVQ Level 3 in Early Years and Childcare.
We actively support all staff furthering their professional development. We currently have nursery apprentices who are working towards The Early Years Educator qualification.
The nursery is owned by local businessman Arlind Marku, who graduated from Middlesex University in 2007 with a BA Hons in Business Studies and Italian. Since graduating he has run a number of family businesses, always with the intention of returning back to his dream of owning a children’s day nursery.
When asked why he wanted to go into childcare, Arlind replied “I want to own a nursery that is full of happiness and joy, creating an environment where children can thrive. I grew up with very strong family values where children’s upbringing and education was always paramount. I believe that a child’s successful journey starts from very early education so it was extremely important for me to choose a site which provides the best setting for children to have an enjoyable, fun learning experience.
I enjoy using my business knowledge and passion for children to support our team and improve the opportunities for our children. I am a firm believer that children are our future and we must give them an understanding of how powerful, important, valuable and perfect they are.”
Stacy – Nursery Manager qualified with a CACHE level 3 in Childcare and Education. She also has 11 years’ experience in childcare with 2-3 year olds. Stacy has received MAKATON training from the lady who trained Mr Tumble (Justin Fletcher) and although working in childcare is challenging she finds it incredibly rewarding. Working with children has always been a passion of Stacy’s since she was 9 and has been the best career choice she could have made.
When asked why she wanted to work in childcare Stacy said “The reason I work with children is because they are our future generation and I take pride in knowing that I have made an impact on the most important years of their lives.”
