At Early Years HR, we know the impact that great leaders have on your nursery, and that starts in the rooms. Supporting your team to grow into confident, capable Room Leaders, Deputies, and Managers is one of the most effective ways to strengthen your nursery and improve day-to-day operations.
Our leadership development support is designed specifically for the early years sector; it’s practical, engaging, and focused on real nursery challenges. Whether you’re promoting a practitioner to Room Leader, developing a new Deputy Manager, or trying to improve team working and dynamics, we’re here to help.
I work with single-site settings as well as larger groups with in-house HR teams.
Using my Clarity4D accreditation, I offer personality profiling that’s simple, memorable, and incredibly effective. The Clarity4D model uses a colour-based system to help individuals understand their communication style, working preferences, and how they interact with others. It’s a fun, accessible way for teams to develop self-awareness, mutual understanding, and more positive working relationships.
By combining Clarity4D insights with my HR and early years expertise, I tailor each session to the realities of nursery life; from managing teams in busy rooms to leading by example during periods of high-stress. We focus on practical leadership skills such as communication, delegation, feedback, and conflict resolution, all within the context of early years settings.
Leadership development sessions can be delivered one-to-one or in small groups, creating a supportive space for reflection, learning, and growth. They’re ideal for:
- New or aspiring Room Leaders and Deputies
- Managers looking to build stronger teams
- Owners wanting to develop confident, motivated leaders within their setting
By investing in leadership development, you’re not just supporting individuals — you’re strengthening your whole nursery team. With Early Years HR, you’ll gain insights that make everyday working relationships smoother, more effective, and more enjoyable.

Personality Profiling Services
We use the simple Clarity 4D model of four colours to work with clients and their needs. Your Nursery Manager might benefit simply from a personality profile and 1:1 coaching session.
You might want to extend the benefits to your whole management team. Engage in a group session and find out what the profiles mean for how you work as a team.
Or, how about a whole team training day? Everyone gets to explore their personality preferences and improve whole team working. This can be a fantastic investment in addressing and preventing personality clashes and frustrations between team members.
However you would like to utilise personality profiling and leadership training, Early Years HR for Nurseries can find a solution that works for you. Combining general HR knowledge, employment law and personality profiling with our expertise in the early years sector you can be confident that we can find the right approach to leadership training for your Nursery Manager.
