Laura Hopkins
Nursery Manager
Hello my name is Laura Hopkins and I am the Manager at Kindred Winterbourne.
I started in this role in September 2024 after having progressed from being a deputy manager at one of our other Salisbury based nurseries where I was in that role since 2018.
I began my career as a Private Nanny until I moved into nursery education. I hold a Diploma in Childcare and Education Level 3 and have experience in childcare since the early 2000's.
I have worked in childcare across a variety of ages from 3 months plus since 2010 at an outdoor nursery, where I completed my level 2 and 3 in Early Years. This has given me some amazing experience and has helped me gain a wide range of knowledge which I have brought to Kindred.
I joined the Kindred family in 2018 as a room leader and have since worked my way up to Deputy Manager and nursery SENCO. My passion is respectful care, ensuring we follow a respectful and unhurried approach to the children's development and care, ensuring they are given the opportunities to flourish and develop into confident children ready for the next steps in their journey.
