Meet Maxine McCormick

Hi, I’m Maxine, the Pre-School Manager at Parnwell. I’ve been in childcare since 2006 and have a Level 3 Early Years qualification. I absolutely love being part of the early years—it’s amazing how children absorb everything like little sponges! 

I’m passionate about developing their interests, especially through messy play, and I love the relationships we build with families in the community. Watching the world through a child’s eyes is so special. I’m also lucky to have an experienced team here at Parnwell, and together we create a fun, nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and explore.

Aspirational Curriculum

Our experienced and dedicated team closely follows Star Day Nursery’s unique ASPIRE curriculum. This follows the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum in the UK (DfE, 2025).

Our curriculum focuses on five main goals: Learn, Achieve, Protect, Develop and be Ready.

With a well-rounded focus on self-growth, the community and the wider environment, you can expect your child to learn about themselves and develop an appreciation for the world around them.

As well as focusing on social interaction and communication, we also provide quieter activities to develop their thinking, imagination and independence.

Our curriculum is designed to spark their interest whilst developing their social skills and independence. We also incorporate sessions which promote healthy living.

Special Educational Needs Support
