My Summary
About Me
I'm a dedicated, passionate childminder with a genuine love for children and their wellbeing. Fluent in three languages, I create a warm, inclusive environment where little ones thrive through play, learning, and exploration.
I believe in the power of hands-on experiences and the great outdoors. From gardening together (planting seeds and watching them grow) to hiking local trails and discovering nature’s wonders, every day is an adventure that builds curiosity, confidence, and joy.
My Experience
I’m a dedicated mum to a lively two-and-a-half-year-old daughter and a proud dog owner. After a successful career as a senior manager in a tax firm, I faced the challenge of finding suitable childcare and made the heartfelt decision to change paths. I’m now fully trained in childminding, having successfully completed an accredited course, and I have a solid understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework. Earlier in my professional life, I also taught German as a foreign language.
My Qualifications
I hold a university degree in Philosophy, which might not seem directly linked to childcare at first glance, but it has certainly broadened my perspective and deepened my understanding of how young minds develop and explore the world. I’m fluent in three languages and am a certified German teacher (C2 level from the Goethe-Institut).
