Linda Fraser (Director)

As a parent myself, I recognise the importance of having high quality childcare. I pride myself on having nurseries which are committed to delivering excellence in small nursery environments.

I qualified in 1984 and have worked in all day childcare ever since. I began my self-employed career at the age of 19 and am now the longest established pre-school provider in the Kirkcaldy and Glenrothes area.

My philosophy of pre-school education stems from my very first nursery. I experienced the benefits of small groups for young children. I observed that delivery in small groups allowed the children to quickly become emotionally secure and happy in their new environment. I saw that their bonding with staff and peers encouraged all areas of their learning. I have committed myself to this form of delivery throughout my career and that is why I still have small nurseries today.
