About Me

As a mum of three energetic children, I bring not only lived experience but also a deep, personal understanding of the daily joys and challenges that come with raising a child with special educational needs. I’ve walked the path many parents find themselves on — navigating assessments, advocating for support, and learning to celebrate every small victory. These experiences have shaped me into a strong, compassionate, and determined individual, and have given me invaluable insight into the real-life impact of SEN provision.

I understand firsthand how important it is to feel seen, heard, and supported — not just for the child, but for the whole family. This is why I’m passionate about offering more than just education. I want to provide care, empathy, and practical support to both children and their families, helping them feel confident, respected, and truly understood.

My Experience

I have a vast amount of experience working with children with additonal needs. I began my teaching career in early years mainstream but my passion for SEN soon led me to become a teacher in charge at a SEN nursery. Here I taught children with a specific speech and language impairment. I then became an advisor for the local authority for primary aged children. During the past 9 years I have been teaching children who are unable to access their education in any setting and I have providing education for these children at home. I am a qualified teacher with a post graduate qualification in language and communication impairment in children.

I recognise that every child is part of a wider support network, and I am equally dedicated to working closely with families to provide compassion, consistency and care. I aim to build strong, trusting relationships with parents and carers, offering guidance, communication, and practical support that helps them feel empowered and involved in their child’s journey. I believe in creating an environment where families are heard, respected, and supported, ensuring that the care and education we provide together are fully aligned and personalised to each child’s needs.

My Qualifications

BA Hons
PGCE education
Post Graduate certificate in language and communication impairment in children

I have actively developed my knowledge and skills through a range of additional training courses, including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Makaton, sensory processing, auditory memory, cued articulation, and understanding the difference between speech and language delay versus disorder. These courses have deepened my practical understanding and equipped me to better support children with diverse communication and developmental needs.

My Availability

I am open to considering a variety of roles and am happy to review each opportunity on its own merits. While my preference is for positions that align with school hours to support a balanced family life, I am flexible and willing to discuss the specific requirements of each role individually. I value open communication and am committed to finding a working arrangement that supports both the needs of the family and my ability to give my best in the role.
