Our Nursery

Child Dynamix Community Nursery Savoy Road opened in 2010 and is situated in the Ings Centre, within the grounds of Ings shopping centre. This means there is plenty of available parking for when you need to drop off and collect your child. We are also near to East Park, allowing us to extend the children’s learning beyond the confines of the nursery walls.

Our nursery is open-plan, with the kitchen as the focal point. This design means children are able to form relationships with all other children who attend our nursery. This supports their confidence and sense of security and belonging, as they can build relationships and connect with children of different ages.

Stay and Play

We offer a no obligations 'trial' for our nursery, called 'Stay and Play'. You can, subject to availability, bring your child in for a free session in a nursery to make sure it's a good fit for them. This will also give you the chance to look around and ask our staff any questions you need. Make sure to contact us in advance to organise this.

Meet the Team

Naomi Clark, Head of Childcare

Naomi Clark

I became inspired to work with children from a young age, through various volunteering roles and was able to see how children grow, learn and develop this then developed my interest to pursue this as a career. I first started working for Child Dynamix as a Nursery Officer when the Janet Genter Community Nursery opened in 2001. Now with over 23 years’ experience in the childcare industry I have progressed through a variety of roles and currently hold the position of Head of Childcare Services.

I have a BA Degree in Early Years and hold the Early Years Professional status and my role is very varied and includes responsibility for all childcare projects across the company, including day nurseries, crèches and holidays schemes. During my time with Child Dynamix I have successfully completed my degree and professional status as well as qualifications in leadership and management and assessing amongst others.

Lizzie Darnell-Wragg

I am currently the Nursery Manager at Child Dynamix Community nursery – Savoy Road. I started my career at Child Dynamix, as part of the team at Janet Genter Community Nursery (now known as Child Dynamix community Nursery) as an adult trainee in April 2003, after serving as a mechanic in the Army.

I completed a L3 in Early Years Care and Education as an adult trainee and have since completed a BA honours degree in Early Year’s Policy and Practice.

 I have now worked for Child Dynamix for 18 years, and progressed on through positions, and managed our Preston Road nursery for 11 years, before moving to the Savoy Road Nursery in February 2021. I have also completed my PGDipE in lifelong learning, (Teaching adults), as I am interested in supporting vulnerable adults with their learning and development, as well as enhancing the breadth of knowledge for early year’s practitioners

Seeing children grow and develop from babies, to now seeing some of them as parents themselves, gives me overwhelming pride and hope that I inspire others to achieve the most out of their lives.

I have worked for Child Dynamix since October 2016 and have over 10 years’ experience of working with children between the ages of 6 weeks and 5 years. I began at the Boulevard nursery when it opened with Naomi and the rest of the team, and I am now based at Savoy Road.

Since starting with Child Dynamix I have completed my foundation degree in Childhood Studies and then continued my development by completing a BA in Early Childhood Education and Care

I am the appointed SENCO for the Savoy Road nursery and have lots of experience working with children with Special Educational Needs. I keep up to date with SENDCo training and like to know how best to support our SEND children.

When I was younger, working with children was never anything I wanted to do, I wanted to be a nurse. That was until I completed my work placement at my former primary school – I changed my mind within half an hour! From then on I wanted to work with children, my aim was to be a teacher in a primary school but the more time I have spent in private day nurseries, the more I have wanted to help younger children.

I began with Child Dynamix as a student in 2015. After 6 months I was offered a supply practitioner contract, followed by an offer of a fulltime position in the baby room in October 2016. I was delighted to apply and be appointed as the nursery’s Senior Practitioner in July 2019 a position I still hold.  

It is a real pleasure to work with the youngest children in our setting, and to be around for those first development millstones such as walking and talking. Seeing our babies grow, being able to watch them go from strength to strength knowing ‘I have helped to achieve this’, always makes me go home with a smile on my face. I like being able to offer that extra help and support to our families, the children and my colleagues – I work alongside a fantastic team of practitioners.

Although I have spent time in other areas of the nursery, my main experience is based within the baby room, and the baby room is where my heart lies.

I start working for Child Dynamix Community Nursery – Savoy in March 2020 during the COVID pandemic! This was a very difficult time to start a new job however, with the amazing support of people around me we all came through it stronger than ever. In March 2024 I was given the opportunity to take on a senior role at Savoy, this role has helped me build my confidence with my team, learn more about supporting families and felt that I was ready for a new challenge.

I chose to work in childcare because I was inspired by one of my family members.

Working in the preschool room and working closely with Tanya (the assistant manager & SENCO) and the SEND children. I like to help children, watch them grow and develop for their next adventure of school, being  the person who helps children to achieve and meet their milestones in life is amazing. Each day  I reflect on how I have helped a child or their family

I work with some fantastic people and I wouldn’t change a thing! Everyone in the team are always willing to help, support each other.

I began my journey at Child Dynamix in March 2012 as a supply member of staff and I was then offered a permanent role as Nursery Practitioner a few months later. 

In September of 2023 I was given the chance to take on a new role and I became a Senior Practitioner for the setting. This role has helped me build my confidence and has given me the opportunity to take on further training and develop new skills.

I currently work in the Toddler room but I have experience working in all three of the rooms. I have a passion for nurturing young minds and creating engaging and educational environments for the children to thrive and reach their potential.

It is an honour to see all these children, grow, learn and develop and to be part of their learning journey and to be part of the team of people I work with – who are the best!
