The Owner / Manager
My name is Nicole Salmon and I have worked within education for over 20 years. My roles have included classroom teacher (Reception, KS1 and KS2), Assistant Headteacher and Early Years Lead and Phonics Lead.
I am passionate about Early Years and the development of children within their formative years. I am aware of the importance of quality early years experiences, and how they create the foundation of children’s progress with regards to their educational future. As such, Unique Day Nursery aims to ensure that every child has daily access to opportunities and experiences that will help to mould them holistically.
My qualifications include:
- BA (Hons) Education Studies
- PGCE (Post Graduate Certificate in Education)
- NPQSL (National Professional Qualification in Senior Leadership)
- CACHE Level 3 SENDCo
Our Staff
Nursery Nurses and Nursery Assistants have attained an NVQ Level 2 qualification (or equivalent), or a higher qualification, as well as experience of working with young children, in order for them to offer optimal support for all of the children within the setting.
The Nursery Kitchen Assistant has attained appropriate Kitchen/ Catering qualifications and kitchen experience, in order for high standards of cleanliness and organisation to be established and maintained, when preparing healthy meals and snacks as planned.
All staff employed at Unique Day Nursery have completed a DBS check to ensure that they have been recruited safely, which is a key element of the safeguarding process. Staff have also completed an accredited Paediatric First Aid course, to ensure that they are confident to administer the appropriate first aid when necessary.

Staff Training
All staff initially complete a staff induction programme. As part of our commitment to staff professional development, we offer ongoing training in order for all members of the team, to remain up to date with all aspects of the Early Years framework, inclusive of knowledge and understanding of healthy eating, safeguarding and child protection.
Our training package also includes health and safety and first aid.
Working in Partnership with Parents
We recognise the importance of working in partnership with parents. Once you have registered your child, we will create a secure online 'Tapestry' journal account for your family. Daily observations will be accessible through these accounts in order for you to be made aware of development, progress, milestones achieved and the general day-to-day care of your child. As a parent, you will also be able to securely add comments and photos of your child, which can be used to evidence development and progress that occurs at home.
Parents will also be kept up-to-date with learning, experiences and events, through weekly e-newsletters.
