About Me

Dear Parents, I have spent the last eight years in various childcare roles, gaining deep insights into how children learn and understanding their emotional needs. I believe children thrive through direct experiences and play, with engaging, fun activities being key to their development. I am committed to providing the best care during their formative years, maintaining professional standards from my Nursery experience in my role as a Nanny. Building strong relationships with parents and respecting their values is a priority, as I’ve learned every family is unique.
