Hello, my name is Emma and I am the manager of Little Acorns Breakfast and After School Club. I have been working with children for 12 years now and still have the passion I did when I first started this challenging yet rewarding career. I have worked as part of the Acorns team for 3 years, working my way up from play worker to Deputy Manger at Lutley Acorns and finally to Manager of Little Acorns. Planning activities and making sure the children are having fun after a busy day of learning at school is very important to me. I feel I am an approachable and bubbly person to be around and am not afraid of new challenges.
