About Me

Helping Little Ones Take Big Steps ?

With over 20 years of Early Years experience, I have spent my career nurturing, supporting and encouraging young children to learn, grow and flourish.

My experience in nursery settings and as a private nanny has given me a real understanding of the challenges and joys that come with those important early years. I have seen first-hand how the right support can make a huge difference to a child's confidence, communication, independence and enjoyment of learning.

This passion has led me to become an Early Years School Readiness Mentor, supporting children and families as they prepare for those exciting next steps.

Through play-based learning, nurturing support and practical guidance for parents and carers, I help children develop the skills, confidence and independence they need to approach their next stage with a positive attitude.

Because school readiness isn't just about being ready for school — it's about helping children feel ready for their next big adventure. ?

My Experience

I bring over 20 years of hands-on experience working with children in the Early Years, alongside valuable experience as a private nanny. Throughout my career, I have worked closely with babies, toddlers and young children, supporting their development, wellbeing and learning during some of the most important years of their lives.

My experience has given me a strong understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and the key areas of development that help children build a strong foundation for their future. I have supported children with their communication and language, physical development, social and emotional development, confidence, independence and early learning skills.

As a room lead, I have also developed strong skills in observing children's individual needs, planning appropriate activities, building trusting relationships and working in partnership with parents and carers.

Over the years, I have learned that school readiness looks different for every child. Some children may need support with communication, others with confidence, independence, social skills or simply becoming comfortable with a new routine.

This wealth of experience is what inspired me to become an Early Years School Readiness Mentor. I want to use the knowledge I have gained throughout my career to provide children and families with practical, nurturing and personalised support as they prepare for their next exciting step.

My Qualifications

My professional knowledge is supported by a range of Early Years qualifications, training and over 20 years of practical experience working with young children and families.

My expertise includes:

? Early Years Education & Child Development
Understanding how young children learn, develop and build the foundations for lifelong learning.

? Communication & Language Development
Supporting children to develop their communication, listening, vocabulary and confidence in expressing themselves.

?? Personal, Social & Emotional Development
Helping children develop confidence, independence, resilience and positive relationships with others.

Sharing practical strategies and ideas with parents and carers so that learning and development can continue at home.

My qualifications, professional training and extensive hands-on experience enable me to provide knowledgeable, nurturing and child-centred support, tailored to the individual needs of every child.

My Availability

Weekend appointments available ?

I offer flexible weekend sessions, making it easier for busy families to access personalised Early Years and school readiness support at a time that works for them.

Individual & Small Group Support

I offer one-to-one sessions as well as small group sessions, depending on the needs and preferences of each child and family.

One-to-one support allows me to focus closely on a child's individual strengths, interests and areas for development, creating a personalised approach to help build confidence and school readiness skills.

Small group sessions provide children with opportunities to learn through play, develop communication and social skills, build confidence, take turns, share and interact with other children in a fun and supportive environment.

Whether working individually or within a small group, my aim is to create a positive, nurturing and engaging learning experience where every child feels encouraged, valued and supported.
