My Summary

My Experience

I currently work in a primary school supporting children in Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2, where I help pupils with their learning both in the classroom and in small groups. Part of my role involves supporting children with Special Educational Needs (SEN), and I’m also receiving ongoing training in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) throughout the academic year so I can better support children with different needs and learning styles.

Alongside my school role, I’m a fully qualified gymnastics coach, which means I’m used to working with children of all ages in a fun, energetic environment while always keeping safety a priority. I love encouraging children to build confidence, try new things, and enjoy being active.

I’ve worked with children in lots of different settings over the years, including as a nursery assistant, childminder, holiday club play leader, and party host, so I’m very comfortable caring for children of different ages and personalities. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, doing crafts, or just making sure they feel happy and secure, I always try to create a positive and relaxed environment.
