About Me

A nurturing and creative therapeutic Nanny with a passion for helping children grow, explore, and express themselves. I bring over a decade of experience supporting children with a range of emotional, social, and developmental needs, always putting their wellbeing and individuality at the heart of everything I do.

I use creativity and play as powerful tools for learning and self-expression—whether through art, storytelling, music, or imaginative play. I create safe, playful, and structured environments where children feel seen, heard, and supported to build confidence, resilience, and independence - in the safety of a positive nurturing relationship.

I also work closely with families, offering guidance and practical strategies to strengthen connections, manage challenges, and create a calm, nurturing home environment. My approach is always compassionate, flexible, and tailored to each child’s unique personality and needs, ensuring every child feels empowered, valued, and supported.

I am here to support children flourish emotionally, socially, and creatively, while giving families the confidence and support they need to thrive together.

I am a highly experienced and compassionate Creative Arts Therapist and Nanny with over twelve years of clinical experience supporting children, young people, and families in diverse settings, including specialist education, healthcare, residential care, and private home environments. My practice is rooted in trauma-informed, client-centered care and the transformational power of creative expression. I am passionate about nurturing emotional growth, resilience, and self-expression in children, and supporting families in navigating complex challenges with empathy and professionalism.
