Meet the Team

Nursery Manager

Harvey Kalsi

I've worked with children for the last 21 years and opened Cherry Tree Nurseries in December 2007.

I have a great passion for working with children and their families and always strive to get the best outcomes for the children, their families and my team. I want the nursery to feel like a home away from home, while maintaining good learning and development opportunities for the children.
