My Summary
About Me
As a mother of two in my late 30’s I have discovered I am strongest, happiest and most fulfilled when in the company of my children. Whether it be a morning of role play or collecting colours outdoors I love nothing more than seeing my children grow. It’s the love and inspiration I find in those days that’s drawn me to a career in childcare.
I pprovide childcare within our family home within walking distance for school/nursery drop offs and collections at Neville's Cross Primary School. I adopt the EYFS 'unique child' approach to schedule days tailored to suit childrern's interests and needs to provide a motivating, explorative, fun environment encouraging development through a variety of activities and resources.
My Experience
I have worked primarily in retail management and within the education sector as an officer for an awarding body. Both roles have allowed me an opportunity to understand people’s differences and specifically the ways we learn in order to have the most effective outcome.
I believe that every person/child is unique, shaped by the choices we make and the experiences they bring. I continued to study after school part time to achieve my A-Levels and eventually BSc in Psychology. This pathway enabled me to explore various avenues and has bought about a passion to be a driving force in the creative motivation children develop for their own learning.
Over the years I have given childcare to my two nieces and nephews providing consistent and regular care over a given period in their early years. I am inspired by how many children’s lives my mother has been an influence in through her management of playgroups and a university creche.
I am passionate about utilising the skills, qualifications and life experiences I have gained to work closely with parents to help children through their journey of learning and development at a pace and style effective for them.
