Meet our manager
Siobhan Donohoe
Hello, my name is Siobhan and I am the manager here at Hungry Caterpillars Academy Gardens. I have been in childcare for many years.
I enjoy watching how children learn and helping them progress throughout their journey at our nursery. I believe children are at the centre of their learning and their voices should be heard, this can be achieved through good teamwork between staff and parents. I believe children thrive in great environments and I am passionate about providing this.
