Our Team

At Childcare & Community Centre – Carr Manor Nursery you can be sure of a warm, friendly welcome as soon as you enter our doors.

CEO Sue Benson, according to her staff is a very easy-going, approachable, and friendly boss. Early 2020 Childcare and Community Centre took over our nursery, since then Sue then has made some exciting changes to our nursery and is looking forward to seeing it grow and expand involving the wider community. To her mind, the thing that makes our nursery a fantastic place to work are the staff.  In her free time, she keeps horses which are competed across the country.

Fitness fanatic and financial whizz Lisa Fisher can be found munching away through her mammoth daily fruit salad while furiously processing our in-goings and out-goings. She always has a smile for everyone. A former athletics county champion, our furtive biscuits are quickly put away from her glaring eyes. Unless it is short bread – she’ll partake in eating short bread.
