I have worked in Childcare since 1995 and have been involved with Udny Station Pre-school and Playgroup since both of my children attended in 2005. I started working here in 2007. I relax by baking a lot and pottering in my wood workshop, and I also enjoy being outside.
Trying to get glitter in every craft and messy play activity!
Making sure all staff, parents and children feel happy and involved.

I live with my four children Willow, Alfie, Evie and Sam and my husband Marcus just outside Foveran. We moved there in May 2021 after moving up from Norfolk where I spent the previous 17 years. I trained as a primary teacher and have mostly spent my teaching career working in Norfolk in the Early Years. It's exciting to be working here in Udny station as I went to Cultercullen Primary School when I was little!
I love working with the children and especially enjoy reading stories and singing songs. I also enjoy being outside in all weathers.
I grew up on a farm and loved all the animals especially the baby lambs.
Pink and Purple.
Hello, I'm Lynsey and I have been part of Udny Station Pre-school and Playgroup in various roles since my son started in 2013. I started out volunteering as part of the committee as snack buyer and over the years I've also dealt with uniforms, parent rota and I was treasurer for 2 years before becoming a staff member as Finance Administration Assistant in 2018. Both of my children have attended the setting and absolutely loved their time here. In my spare time I enjoy going out for walks and you'll usually see me walking the local railway line in my crazy leggings.
I am responsible for providing financial reports to the committee and keep them up to date with the day to day finances of the setting, I also produce the invoices for any fees that are due to be paid.
Anyone who knows me would say it's making up spreadsheets.
I'm not sure if I have a favourite animal but I grew up with dogs and hamsters.
Purple, blues or reds.
