Danni Robertson 
Company Director
I started at Thames Tiddlers Nursery in 1998 as a student studying my NVQ level 2 in early years childhood education. In the same year I was offered a part time position with Thames Tiddlers. The following year I completed my level NVQ level 3 and went full time at the setting. In 2000 I become the Nurseries business coordinator. In 2003 I project lead a government scheme called The Neighbourhood Nurseries Initiative which lead to the extension of the nursery to include a baby unit. This opened in 2004. In 2008 I completed my level 3 in business and admin. In 2010 myself and my sister Claire took over the business as company directors. I have three children of my own and have a passion for creating enriched possibilities for children and their families.

I started as part of a job share working in partnership for Greenwich Community College. A training company then took the nursery over as sole provider and my position changed to a full time nursery officer. Greenwich council took the nursery over in 2007 as an interim period.
