Tracy Murdoch
Nursery Manager
SVQ Level 4 Children & Young People
Working towards a BA Childhood Practice
I am honoured to be part of a loving and caring team at Fly High. I love having the opportunity to watch every child learn, grow and develop in our care. Fly High is a unique nursery where staff and children all feel like part of a family, in a safe nurturing environment for your child to become confident individuals.
I was delighted to join the Fly High when it opened in 2019 and now to be the Manager is a dream come true. I am looking forward to taking the nursery from strength to strength and watching the team and children thrive in an environment that offers lots of experiences where children can investigate, be curious and use their imaginations allowing them to become the best they can be.

Lead Early Years Practitioner
BA Childhood Studies (Hons)
I am looking forward to getting know the children and see them grow! I love outdoor and messy play and can’t wait to organise lots of experiences for the children.
Handing in my honour’s dissertation was an amazing feeling and passing was even better! Every day is different working in early years, and I love that.
Sharon Morrison
Early Years Practitioner
HNC Early Education and Childcare
I have been a part of the Fly High team since we opened and although I've had time off on maternity leave it is lovely to see the nursery continue to develop and all the children having so much fun through all the learning opportunities provided.
I have worked in childcare since 2010, I was part of a private nursery group in Edinburgh for 8 years where I gained lots of experience with various age groups and was room supervisor for many years. When I moved back to Ayrshire I worked within school nurseries on supply. Being a mummy to two young children helps boost my skills on caring for children as well as knowing the challenges and fun of being a parent.

I enjoy my job as I love watching the children grow and develop their own personality. I love building relationships with children and teaching life skills. I enjoy being able to call myself a role model for the children.
My biggest achievement in my time in childcare is leaving school and going straight into getting my qualification for a job that I love and have wanted from a young age, as well as becoming qualified so quickly.

I enjoy my job at fly high nursery because I enjoy watching the children grow and learn new things.
I have experience of working with children in my old workplace as I worked as a soft play assistant at Heads of Ayr Farm Park, where a key part of my role was to look after the needs and wellbeing of young children.

I love my job at Fly High as I get the privilege to watch the children grow and develop crucial skills which will benefit them later in life which I feel extremely grateful to be a part of.
I have gained experience in a local primary school which has gave me the opportunity to carry out and demonstrate the skills I have already learnt at Fly High.
