My Summary
About Me
I've spent my whole life with children and I love to spend time in nature with them, being curious and ensuring they have fun and feel safe. When children feel safe and loved they are free to create and express themselves, for their own growth and development.
I am passionate about supporting learning through play, games and activities to enhance social, emotional, physical and intellectual development.
I'm keen to work with families who value time in nature, healthy eating, time for creativity, with minimal plastic toys and minimal or no screen time, and who aim for a low impact/ sustainable lifestyle.

I have many additional qualifications and trainings including, mentoring, The Way of Council facilitation, coaching, emotional literacy, children's mental health, outdoor and paediatric first aid, challenging behaviour, safe-guarding, teaching English as a foreign language, grief tending, food hygiene, hand-in-hand parenting and much more.
