About Me

I am an energetic person with a great sense of humour and I like to build warm relationships with both adults and children. I was born in Portugal to African parents , I speak Portuguese and English often to the children in my care. Promoting diversity and awareness of different cultures is important to me. I do this by celebrating, cooking different types of foods, outings, reading and watching educational programs.

I enjoy working in this profession because I like to contribute to making a difference in children’s lives. I am a reflective and enthusiastic early years practitioner and I feel I have been making a difference over the years. Every child is unique and I value these differences. I have learnt with hand on experience how to observe these different needs and expectations.

I aspire to enable children to develop to their maximum capabilities and to become confident individuals who can reach their full potential.

I love creative activities such as, planting, baking, role play, junk modelling, outdoors and so on.

My Experience

I am very passionate about working with young children, and have gained vast experience in the last 10 years working mainly with children aged 0-5 years. I have also worked with special educational needs (autism) in children centres and private nurseries across London.

My house is well designed to provide your child with a best start. I've a playroom and good size garden for your little one to explore. My approach is influenced by Montessori and Reggio Emilia , the children in my care will be encourage to be curious, independent, kind and to have fun!




Looking forward to hear from a lovely family

15 September 2021
An inspection revealed a positive learning environment where children enjoy their time and develop confidence. Good links with other settings and strong partnerships with parents support children's development. The culturally aware atmosphere includes bilingual activities, while healthy lifestyles are promoted through balanced meals. Children are motivated learners, though more encouragement in problem-solving skills would be beneficial. Overall, the childminder provides good-quality care and education.
