About Me
As a mum to four grown-up children and a proud grandmother to four grandchildren, family is at the heart of everything I do. I value creating safe, happy, and nurturing environments where children feel comfortable and parents have complete peace of mind.
I am 52 years old, CRB checked physically active, reliable, kind, and approachable. I enjoy spending quality time with my family, exploring new places, and embracing new experiences. I build positive relationships easily and am known by family and friends as someone they can depend on for support. My professional experience, combined with my personal experience as both a parent and grandparent, enables me to provide caring, dependable, and flexible childcare tailored to each family's individual needs.
