Maggie started Otii after a tough Ofsted Inspection
Having twice created groups of nurseries and family club centres, she is no stranger to the responsibility of being a nominated individual. Maggie felt it hard one day, when Ofsted gave a pretty damning verdict about the nursery. It wasn't because it was unsafe. It wasn't because the practise was poor. It was because the evidence wasn't to hand, and her manager wasn't on top of it.
Stuart ran compliance across several large early years groups
Trusted with managing operations and compliance for large multi-site nursery groups, his largest being 70 nurseries. Stuart knows the importance of top-level oversight and how data can help to make the right investments and to tackle the true root cause of operational problems. Otii is that tool that would have made him a better leader and would have helped him to sleep an awful lot better at night too.
Kat ran nurseries as a manager
The voice of the nursery manager here at Otii, guiding the platform to make a difference at a nursery where it really counts. Her rich and recent experience of managing a large staff team, servicing the community of parents, and ensuring the safety and development of the children day to day, puts her in a great position to shape features and workflows in Otii.
Our advisors
We strongly back ourselves when it comes to running nurseries, making sense of early years regulations, and building really great features and tools for those caring for and educating children.
We're also smart enough to know what we don't know. Smart enough to know where to find great people who do know.
Kellie Peters
Data Protection Officer
Our external Data Protection Officer. Independent of the team that builds Otii, reporting directly to our CEO, to ensure that data is represented at the highest level.
Ann Marie Christian
Safeguarding consultant
Our external safeguarding consultant, offering valuable insight into safeguarding practices from a nursery level and from a local authority child protection viewpoint too.
