Victoria House values its staff very highly and all of our staff are of a high education calibre. Most having gained Level 3 or graduate level. In the interests of the staff and children, all staff members are given every opportunity to develop their personal and professional skills and to broaden their knowledge of child care practice. To facilitate this we hold regular staff meetings, encourage staff to attend both internal and external training courses and conduct regular staff appraisals. There is a strong ethos of continuous professional development.
At Victoria House we believe in hands-on leadership. The management team are all fully involved in the day to day running of the nursery. We pride ourselves on offering high standards in child care.
Victoria House also keeps itself up-to-date with best practice in early years care and education. There are information sheets on many topics available for parents to take; and the latest copy of many professional publications are available to read.
Victoria House has good links and relationships with both the Department of Education and the Isle of Man college who we work in conjunction with and are recognised as a training nursery. These relationships help to facilitate best working practice and keeps us up to date with current practice and the wider community.
