About Me

I’m a friendly, caring, and reliable person who genuinely enjoys spending time with children and helping them learn, grow, and have fun. I love getting involved in activities, whether that’s arts and crafts, crystal art, baking, outdoor adventures, or days out exploring. I’m a big animal lover and enjoy encouraging creativity, confidence, and curiosity through play.

I’m patient, organised, and happy to adapt to each child’s individual personality and needs. As well as providing a safe and nurturing environment, I’m also happy to help with cooking, light household cleaning, homework, and maintaining routines to make life a little easier for busy families.

I believe childcare should be engaging, supportive, and fun, and I always aim to build trusting relationships with both children and parents.

My Experience

I hold a Master’s degree in Psychology and currently work as an Assistant Psychologist specialising in Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA), supporting children and young people with their emotional wellbeing, school engagement, and mental health. I also work as a part-time tutor, helping children develop academically while building their confidence and resilience.

Alongside my professional roles, I have extensive experience supporting children with autism, learning difficulties, and additional needs. Growing up with a brother who has autism has given me valuable personal insight alongside my professional knowledge, allowing me to provide compassionate, patient, and understanding care tailored to each child’s unique needs.

My background has equipped me with excellent communication skills, a calm approach to challenging situations, and the ability to create positive, supportive relationships with children of different ages and abilities.

My Qualifications

* Master’s degree in Psychology
* Bachelor’s degree in Education and Psychology
* Three A-Levels
* Nine GCSEs
* CPD training in Safeguarding
* CPD training in Autism
* CPD training in Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA)

My academic background, combined with my specialist training and practical experience, has given me a strong understanding of child development, emotional wellbeing, neurodiversity, and supporting children with a range of additional needs. I am committed to providing safe, compassionate, and engaging care tailored to each child’s individual strengths and needs.

My Availability

During school holidays I am able to babysit for up to 3 hours during the day as my work is fully flexible.

During term-times I only have three flexible working days.
