About Me

I have around twenty years experience working with children from newborn right through to teens, and indeed am still in touch with many of the children, who are now young adults studying at university or beginning their careers.

I love to be outdoors and active with the children in my care, but appreciate the value also for calm, creative time including arts and crafts, baking or child led free play.

I also walk dogs, my own and others. If there are any household pets requiring care or just a bit of attention, I would be delighted to help with them too!
I have a keen interest in dressmaking and upcycling of all kinds and enjoy to plan and engage children in creative and arty projects.

Please do get in touch if you would initially just like to have a chat or video call.

My Experience

I began working in childcare via a temp agency as a nursery assistant, which I enjoyed very much. A Mothers Help role became available and I was put forward as a candidate via the same agency. I was lucky enough to gain employment in this role and am still very much in touch with this family.

Thereafter I was offered roles mainly through word of mouth, gaining varied experience of different age ranges and needs including some additional support needs and attachment issues.

After gaining my HNC in Equine Studies I began working, combining nannying and horse care. Further employment over the years I have gained through registered childcare agencies.

Please do have a look at my CV and references for more specific info on my job roles and further training.
Additionally, I have a full driver's license and my own car, and also have up to date first aid training and hold a full PVG. I can provide reference contact details upon request.
