Yasmin

My name is Yasmin, and I have worked at Best Friends since September 2023 and am loving it so much. I was originally working in the Bumblebee room but after covering in the baby room I fell in love with the Caterpillar room so here I am! I am working towards completing my Level 2 and enjoy creating new messy play ideas for our wonderful babies.

Ladybird Staff

I work in Ladybirds as room leader. I have worked at Best Friends for over 14 years and love it so much! I am always looking up new and interesting messy play ideas and am the play-doh queen always finding new things to mix in like herbs, paints and smelling essence.

As the owners' granddaughter I have been coming to Best Friends since I was two, and then when I left for school I came back in the holidays with my mum. I left high school and came to join the family business and love every second of it. I have a Level 2 and am about to start my Level 3.
