My Summary

My Experience

I'm a passionate and experienced ballet teacher with over a decade of working with young children. I have taught ages 2.5 and up in a nurturing, creative environment and currently run my own dance school, where I lead a team of four teachers across two London branches.
Alongside teaching, I have also worked as a nanny for two families in Surrey and provided babysitting for several families over the years — giving me hands-on experience with children in home settings, including routines, meal prep, creative play, and emotional care.

My Qualifications

I hold a Level 3 Diploma in Dance Instruction (ISTD), have an enhanced DBS check, safeguarding training, and previous First Aid certification. My work with the English National Ballet’s Ballet Futures project reflects my commitment to inclusive, child-focused education.
While I don’t hold a formal qualification in childcare, I bring over 12 years of hands-on experience working with young children through teaching, nannying, and babysitting — and I’m also a mum myself! I deeply understand the needs of young children and the trust that families place in their carers. My approach is nurturing, patient, and responsive, always aiming to support both the child’s development and their sense of security and joy.

My Availability

I can do school drop-offs, pick ups, I can come to your home in the morning and assist in your children's routine, I can prepare lunch, snacks, tidy their room and look after their laundry.
