Welcome to
St. Peters Day Nursery & Timbers Nursery School
Where play shapes powerful learners
Carol Sneath - Senior Manager & Director
With over 35 years of experience in Early Years education, I have dedicated my career to providing exceptional care, education and leadership for young children and their families. For the past 22 years I have owned and managed Timbers Nursery School, alongside 8 years at St. Peters Day Nursery, building both settings around high-quality, inclusive and child-centred practice.
I began my Early Years journey at 16 years old, completing the prestigious two-year NNED qualification before progressing into senior leadership roles. Early in my career I played a key role in establishing and managing a 100-place day nursery, successfully leading the setting for 10 years before relocating to Hampshire.
Passionate about continual professional development, I completed an Early Years Foundation Degree through the University of Winchester before achieving a BA in Early Years through The Open University. My commitment to excellence extends beyond my own two settings, as I am currently undertaking a second year as a Lead Foundation Stage Practitioner (LFSP), where I support, mentor and share my extensive knowledge and expertise with other Early Years settings and professionals.
I place paramount importance on nurturing a deep understanding of child development and creating environments where children, families and practitioners thrive.
