Kim Sallis
Owner/Director
I am the proud owner and director of Little Wisp preschools in Eastleigh, Hampshire. The preschool started with one small setting in Chandlers Ford that has grown in four years to our amazing settings across Eastleigh and Bishopstoke. I am passionate about childcare and Early years training to a Level 5 as well as having a first-class honours degree in Bachelor of Arts. I am a mum of three amazing unique children, one of whom has autism. I believe in children being treated by staff with respect, love and outstanding care and partnerships with all families. Your children are treated as if they were our own and everybody who works, plays and is part of Little Wisp preschools is part of the Little Wisp family. The success of Little Wisp is through the hard work, commitment and passion from the managers and staff of each setting. We look forward to welcoming every family to our unique settings and pride ourselves on our compassion and love for what we do.

Gemma-Rae Hall
Manager of Little Wisp Bishopstoke
I have worked in Early Years for over 8 years, what started as a job to fit around my two daughters soon grew into a passion for providing care and education. I'm very proud that I have progressed from an apprentice to Manager and feel very lucky to spend every day doing a job I love. Our setting offers a family feel, with many of the staff's children having attended at one point and many families returning to us over the years with younger siblings. We have close ties to the community, often going for walks to feed the ducks, wellie walks to the local woods and performing our Nativity in St Mary's Church, which is situated opposite our building. We have a large hall that gives us room to offer many activities to help the children explore and learn, an enclosed garden (that we use no matter what the weather) and our very own mud kitchen.
