About Me

I have recently retired after 21 years in Social Work Service within Perth & Kinross Council. I have recently registered as a childminder after looking after my own 2 grandchildren full-time which has been fulfilling and a pleasure. Now they are at School and Nursery I want to continue caring and nurturing children which will give me a good family and work life balance. Additionally, I have 11 years’ service in HM Forces and enjoyed worldwide travel and experience working with many nationalities and different cultures, this has given me a wealth of experience and knowledge. I have also worked in an international nursery school in Hong Kong where I taught English as a second language, previously trained as a playgroup leader with the Federation of Army Wives and have participated in Makaton through the sing and sign learning programme which is something I would like to further develop.

My Experience

Having successfully had a career in HM Forces and Social Work Services as well as a mother to my own two children and now my own grandchildren.
