Norto5 KIDZ began in June 2006 when Peter and Carolyn Bird together with their son, Harley decided to open a nursery school. This seemed to be a natural product of each of their skills because Carolyn had many years of experience in childcare, as a foster parent, a mother and then as a childcare practitioner. Peter is a Chartered Accountant so he is able to attend to the administration and Harley has a lot of IT experience so could create all the management systems.
Lewis - enjoyed playing in the garden, spending the day with his friends, going on the mini-bus and learning his phonics. Scarlett always looked forward to her days at the nursery and loved 'show & tell', being out in the garden and meadow. Words cannot express how thankful I am that I chose Elan nursery for George. You have all contributed so much to the happy healthy boy that he is, George has thrived at nursery.
