Mon Ami In Line for More Awards
Lincolnshire’s outstanding childcare group Mon Ami Children’s Nurseries is in line for another raft of awards.
The company has been shortlisted in three categories in the Nursery Management Today National Nursery Awards 2017: Nursery Group of the Year, Nursery Nurse of the Year (Julie Crowther) and Operations / Regional Manager of the Year (Kristina Johnson).
Judging day takes place in London on 9th October 2017 and the prizes will be presented by TV presenter and adventurer Ben Fogle at the Hilton London Metropole on 25th November 2017.
Julie Crowther has been working at Mon Ami’s newest nursery in Wragby since it opened in 2015. She is the lead practitioner for young babies under the age of two.
Kristina Johnson is the Senior Nursery Manager at Mon Ami Children’s Nurseries overseeing the operation of all four nurseries in Alford, Boston, Swineshead and Wragby.
Mon Ami was founded in 2002 and now all four of its Lincolnshire nurseries are rated outstanding by Ofsted. The latest to be inspected was the new Wragby nursery in February 2017.
“We’re delighted that the hard work and dedication of our staff is being recognised in this way,” said Samantha Britton, co-owner and founder of Mon Ami.
“All four of our nurseries are rated outstanding by Ofsted, so we’re keeping our fingers crossed that this year will be our year!
“I’m really pleased for Kristina, who deserves all the plaudits that come her way, and for Julie, who does an excellent job at our Wragby nursery.
“We’re all really looking forward to both award ceremonies and we’re hoping to bring home some silverware to Lincolnshire!”
The NMT National Nursery Awards are not the only accolades Mon Ami is hoping to win: the team will also be heading to London this Saturday (23rd September) for the Nursery World Awards, where they are shortlisted in two more categories: Nursery Group of the Year and Nursery Operations / Regional Manager of the Year (Kristina Johnson).
Mon Ami Children’s Nurseries are enjoying a purple patch when it comes to awards: last year Samantha Britton was included in the NMT Nursery Top 10 Most Influential 2016 and she and her husband Jarrod were also named in the Fantastic 50 list of top Midlands entrepreneurs in Midlands Business Insider magazine.
