My Summary
About Me
Hi there! I'm Melissa :)
I have worked with children for 14 years, in many settings inc unschooling family nanny, home Ed nanny, forest school assistant, bushcraft camp teaching assistant, VIP live in private nanny and more.
I now have a little one of my own, she is 3 years old now. and will be in forest school whilst I work.
I am passionate about aware parenting (very similar to hand in hand) But can also adapt to your style for your own child if necessary.
To get a feel for what I'm about... I enjoy foraging, psychology, car boot sales, festivals, travel, reading, walking, dancing.
In terms of learning /education im most into Montessori and democratic schooling.
I have experience making meals with many different intolerances and diets. I follow organic, local, seasonal diet myself and I am also experienced with naturopathic style of health and first aid so happy to adopt these things in too if needed.
Thank you so much for reading, please do get in touch with any questions or anything you want to share at all.
Look forward to hearing from you! X
