CPD training for your nursery staff
NoodleNow! (the exclamation mark is important) was a leading provider of online training courses, specialising in the childcare sector. The platform offers over 120 CPD-certified courses, accessible 24/7 on any device, with a new course delivered every single month.
With a focus on delivering engaging and effective e-learning, NoodleNow! aims to improve the performance of learners, managers, and owners in the industry.
In 2024 NoodleNow! entered a partnership with KidsKonnect, the leading nursery software company in Europe. This brought growth, innovation and fresh technology to NoodleNow! users, and now Ovivio and NoodleNow! are working hand-in-hand to get industry-leading CPD training to the hands of as many nursery workers as possible.
Read on to find out more about NoodleNow! and why if you aren’t using it yet, you should be.
From humble beginnings to industry leader
NoodleNow! first came into being 9 years ago when founder Craig Stables realised that so many businesses needed to train their staff but couldn’t afford to do so, or found themselves lost in a pool of available training providers.
His mission was to become the training provider for every nursery business in the UK, always have fresh courses to learn from, and remain affordable all the while.
From that mission, NoodleNow! was born. And now, tens of thousands of UK nursery practitioners use NoodleNow! to broaden their knowledge and complete their CPD requirements
The ever-expanding training library
NoodleNow! has over 120 CPD-certified courses available in its training library, growing with at least one new course every month. That means a year’s subscription includes everything already on the system and 12 brand-new courses across the year.
From Advanced Safeguarding and Apprentices In The Workplace to Understanding Neglect and Water Safety, there’s a course for everything your staff need for their CPD requirements. And to become well learned practitioners to boot.
Certified CPD
Continuous professional development is relatively easy to do, but hard to prove without something concrete after it or test after test. That’s why every course on NoodleNow! comes with a certificate after completion, accepted by Ofsted as proof of CPD.
Log those certificates your staff earn in your nursery management software staff profiles, and you can easily show any Ofsted inspector how you support your staff’s CPD.
Eternally affordable staff training
As part of our mission to keep NoodlwNow! accessible, the pricing plans are the lowest you’ll find. £15 for a full course, £50 for a year’s worth of their entire training catalogue, £25 per user for business (again for a year) and a special £5 offer including 10 mini-courses aimed especially at the early years, perfect for a trial run or staff onboarding if you don’t want to go all the way to £25.
