Mum of three and the heart behind The Lookout, Charlotte has poured her love, vision, and endless energy into creating a nursery that feels like a second home for children and families.  When she’s not at The Lookout, you’ll usually find her outdoors, walking, exploring, riding her mountain or dirt bike, or unwinding with a well-earned glass of wine! Nature, adventure, and creativity are at the centre of Charlotte’s life, and they run right through the ethos of The Lookout.  Charlotte believes nurseries aren’t just childcare settings, they’re places that nurture explorers, thinkers, and dreamers of tomorrow, giving every child the space to feel confident, capable, and completely themselves.

Charliee has been part of The Lookout’s furniture since day 1! The Lookout Day Nursery was her first baby when we opened in 2020, and she’s now an actual Mummy to a scrummy little girl who joined the LO family in 2024. When she’s not at LO, you’ll find Charliee exploring local woodlands with her little family and enjoying musical theatre, both as a viewer and an actor! Early Years has always been a passion of Charliee’s, and she believes we are instrumental in ensuring that the importance of early years education is valued within society, just as our little people are valued to us.

Cath’s passion and love for Early Years is clear to see when you visit The Lookout. Cath really understands how important our small people are and how best to support them in all areas of their learning and development, using herself as a resource rather than a ’teacher’. Cath has recently welcomed her own little baby boy so is enjoying soaking up all the newborn snuggles! Cath loves nothing more than channelling inner Italian Nonna in the kitchen whilst making homemade pasta and enjoying a lovely glass of red wine!

Nicole joined us with a breadth of experience under her belt, including working with children with SEND. Nicole’s understanding and passion for inclusion has become a core part of how we advocate at The Lookout for all children – starting with our youngest in Nicole’s baby room all the way through to our eldest heading off to school or on their next adventure. In her spare time, you’ll find Nicole running her Visla around the countryside and enjoying a pub lunch after – maybe even with a book in front of the fire!

Hollie’s been working within Early Years for forever and a day – as a Nanny as well as within other nurseries. Hollie has a clear natural, calming energy with all children, but especially with our smallest ones. She clearly wants the best for all children in her care, whether that’s with helping our youngest children learn the life skills of moving and coordination or aiding our pre-schooler’s with their emotional regulation. In her own time, you’ll find Hollie enjoying adventures with her husband and seeing as much live music as she possibly can!
