About Me

Hi :) I am a mum to 2 girls in the Mossley area with several qualifications and work experience in childcare. I am currently working on my BA (Hons) Early Childhood studies through The Open University. I will soon be fully registered through the Early Years Team and NICMA to start childminding from my home. I believe that every child is unique in their learning and processing life experiences, which is why I believe ongoing training (on my end), strong partnerships with parents, patience and flexibility are key features in my role as a supporting adult. Please feel free to message at any time and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

My Experience

*I have done all necessary training recently with NICMA, including Health and Safety, Safeguarding and Paediatric First aid, all certificates can be seen on the premises. I also have a Philips defibrillator on site (provided and maintained by Pulse4All).
*I have worked as a 1 to 1 Nursery assistant- during covid.
*I have had several work placements between day care, nurseries, primary school classes throughout my years training to support teaching and learning and developing knowledge of child development.
*I was a young carer for my mum and young siblings for years while still trying to study GCSE's, my life experience has served me with Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE's) which many children and their families face- This has helped me develop into a strong and resilient woman with a passion for helping people feel seen, heard and welcome.
*I now have 2 wonderfully loud children of my own who are very excited to meet and play with other children more often. My experiences include working with children with a variety of behavioural and additional needs so I am pretty adaptable, with a focus on positive reinforcement.
*I'm always willing to learn, whatever you need for your family, please let me know, I will do my best to accommodate anyone.
