Jackie Taylor has been appointed as the new manager at The Old Station Nursery in Faringdon, Oxfordshire.

Jackie, who started her role last earlier this month, has an extensive background in childcare having worked within a management team at another nursery in Oxfordshire for over eight years.

“It’s an exciting opportunity for us to breathe renewed energy into the whole team and I’m sure all our children and parents will enjoy the positive changes that Jackie will be making, whilst building on the really sound traditions which our very first nursery enjoys.”

The Old Station Nursery in Faringdon is registered for 60 children. Jackie and her team will work closely with the children and their parents to offer a ‘home from home’ environment to ensure children feel safe, happy and stimulated.
