About Me

As a skilled caregiver, I prioritize creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can thrive. My artistic flair adds an extra dimension to our time together, whether it's through creative activities, storytelling, or imaginative play. I understand the importance of building strong relationships with children based on trust, respect, and understanding. With me as your manny, you can rest assured that your children will be in capable and caring hands.

My Experience

My experience in teaching allows me to engage children in stimulating and enriching activities that not only entertain but also educate. Whether it's through exploring colors and textures in art projects I strive to ignite curiosity and foster self-expression in every child I care for.
Growing up in a large extended family has provided me with invaluable hands-on experience in looking after children of all ages. From soothing infants to keeping up with the energy of toddlers and engaging with older children, I understand the diverse needs and dynamics of family life.

Additionally, my role as a football coach for 7s-10s during the summer holidays has honed my skills in communication, teamwork, and leadership. I know how to create a fun and supportive environment where children can learn, grow, and develop essential social skills.
Combining my passion for art, teaching, and sports coaching, I offer a holistic approach to childcare that prioritizes creativity, education, and personal development. With me as your manny, your children will not only be well cared for but also inspired to explore their interests and talents.

My Qualifications

With a comprehensive educational background, including a PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate in Education), a Bachelor's degree, an HND (Higher National Diploma), as well as A-levels and GCSEs, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to childcare and education.

My PGCE has equipped me with the necessary skills and expertise to effectively teach and engage with children of various ages and backgrounds. It has provided me with a solid foundation in educational theory, teaching methods, and child development.

Furthermore, my Bachelor's degree has given me a deeper understanding of my subject area, allowing me to incorporate enriching and educational experiences into childcare activities. My HND has provided me with practical, hands-on experience in my field, enhancing my ability to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world situations.

Additionally, my A-levels and GCSEs demonstrate my commitment to academic excellence and provide evidence of my strong educational background.

Together, these qualifications have not only prepared me for a career in education but have also equipped me with the skills, knowledge, and experience necessary to provide exceptional care and support to children. As your manny, I am dedicated to creating a nurturing, stimulating environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive.
