My Summary
About Me
I'm Steph - caring, creative and friendly. I have been working with children for 15+ years, in both school and home settings.
My Experience
I currently work as a part time nanny for a fun, curious 2 year old boy, alongside studying towards my MA in Play Therapy. I love play therapy, because I believe wholeheartedly in the therapeutic power of play for children's well-being and development. Nannying fits wonderfully alongside Play Therapy, with a focus on spending focused, quality time with a child/children.
The decision to train as a play therapist came from the variety of experience that I have working with children, especially through my work in schools as a fully qualified primary school teacher - I have been teaching for 7 years, and currently teach flexibly on a supply basis whilst I study. Play therapy fits with my ethos of valuing and really seeing a child as the individual that they are - whilst I TREASURE my teaching experience, I did not feel that I was able to 'reach' children in the way that they needed, particularly in terms of their social and emotional development. To any nannying role, I bring with me a huge variety of experience (and a lot of heart!)
I have well over a decade of experience working with families and children, both in nannying roles as well as within education. I am more than happy to discuss any of my background and work experience in more detail when we connect.
I believe that a trusting relationship is central to any work, especially where children and families are involved. I love to bring fun, warmth and genuine connection to the children that I work with.
