Managing a nursery can be challenging but rewarding. Andy Hillier reports on what is involved.

What does a nursery manager do?

The manager is usually the most senior person at the nursery and has overall responsibility for the setting. They will be responsible for managing the nursery workers as well as administration staff. They will also have responsibility for the educational performance and financial success of the nursery.
