Vidya Mani
Senior lead
I began my journey at Buzzee Beez Pre-school at 2 years old as a Buzzee bee myself. At that time my mum was a preschool worker, she is now the manager. Throughout my childhood and secondary school life, I would often help out and come into the preschool whenever I could. I really enjoyed helping out and when the opportunity arose, I left College & decided to start a childcare career. In September 2017 I began my l3 childcare apprenticeship. I really enjoy my job and I have a passion for working with SEND children. Knowing I can make a difference in all children's lives is important to me.
