My name is Liz and I am the Early Years Manager for Kids Club Teddington. I have worked at Building Blocks since November 2007. During this time I have gained a vast experience with a range of different ages, developing a wider knowledge and understanding of all age groups from babies up to 11 year olds. During my time at Building Blocks I have been given the opportunity to develop as a professional gaining a Level 5 in Leadership & Management. I have been one of the managers in Teddington since September 2014. I have managed both the Main Building and Kids Club during this time. Within my role I thoroughly enjoy developing the staff team, the children within the setting and the environment to ensure we provide a stimulating, safe and engaging setting where all children can thrive.

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my two children and husband.

Hi, name is Vivienne and I have been working with Building Blocks since November 2016.

I have always been passionate about working with children and I feel I am able to create strong bonds with children whilst tuning in to how individuals learn best which motivates me further to create unique learning opportunities and environments for them! I am a mother myself and love spending time with my two young children watching and supporting their development
