Meet the team

Everyone who works at Westcliff Treasures Preschool is dedicated to providing a positive, safe, caring, warm and friendly environment for your child. All staff have a current DBS and undertake regular training in Paediatric First Aid, Safeguarding and Food Hygiene as well as other relevant topics to support and enhance our provision.

Each child is allocated a Key Person to be their “special person”, to be your point of contact and to use their observations to track and support your child’s progress. Within each session, we have at least 3-4 members of staff with direct care of the children. During higher-number sessions, we increase this and aim to to work above the required staff to child ratios of 1:8 for over 3s and 1:5 for under 3s enabling us to provide high quality support for children’s wellbeing and learning.

    Owner/Director

    Hi I’m Charlotte. With 18 years of experience in Early Years Education and as a proud mother of four, I’ve developed a deep understanding of what truly matters in a nurturing, high-quality preschool environment. Having lived in Leigh-on-Sea all my life, I’m passionate about creating a setting that reflects the warmth and spirit of our local community.
    At Leigh Treasures, my vision was to build more than just a preschool — I wanted to create a place where families felt welcomed, involved, and connected. A place where children could flourish through inspiring enrichment activities, engaging resources, and the support of our highly qualified and dedicated team. I’m achieving this and now I want to do the same at Westcliff Treasures.
    I’m so excited to watch each child grow in confidence, curiosity, and creativity as part of our Westcliff Treasures family.
