About Me

I am married with 4 teens. Two boys and two girls. I have 10 years of experience working with children, of all ages, especially special educational needs. Two of my children are also Autistic. I've just started my own business as a Holistic therapist so I'm very flexible with my time, I also home-educate our youngest daughter. My calm and friendly personality goes a long way in making children feel at ease in my presence.
