About Me

Hi, I'm Christiana and I live with my husband and 3 children in Crouch End, N8.

For the past 10 years, I have worked as a Family Support Worker providing complex and intense support for children who live within families who are experiencing difficulties. A big part of my role has been supporting parents/carers with how to promote early years development as well as a healthy lifestyle for their children, ensuring they have the best start in life.

I have spent hours studying children's behaviours, various parenting styles and have delivered positive parenting courses to families. Positive parenting felt natural to me so when it came to finding a direction for my own parenting style, it was the perfect fit. Positive Parenting is focused on developing a strong, deeply committed relationship between parent and child based on communication and mutual respect. Positive Parenting focuses on teaching children not just what but also why. I've worked hard to promote these principles and continue to build upon this. I hope to be able to enrich other children's lives with this approach.

I am warm, caring and provide a safe, nurturing home-like setting where your child will feel loved and cared for whilst learning through play. I am passionate about exploring nature, the environment and how we can teach children to protect their planet. I love cooking and providing healthy, interesting meals. I enjoy seeing children being involved in what they eat and trying new foods. I feel strongly that free & creative play is a necessary part of our days and we spend time out in the community as much as possible.

There is no greater joy or reward than watching children thrive and develop into young, happy, well-adjusted children who are ready to take on the world.

I hope to meet you soon!

Christiana
