My Summary
About Me
I’m someone who believes childhood should be rooted in wonder, play, and connection to the natural world. I love helping children learn through hands-on experiences, exploring nature, understanding where food comes from, and discovering the joy of creating with their hands. Baking, cooking, messy play, and rainy-day crafts are some of my favourite ways to spark curiosity and confidence. Music, outdoor adventures, and time spent in nature are woven into everything I do. When I’m not creating or exploring, you’ll usually find me with my dog, Lady, embracing simple moments, fresh air or on roller skates with my roller derby team, cooking delicious plant based food and travelling in my campervan.
My Experience
Two families in particular have been my main child experience.
Dan & Andre had twins Chloe & Cara in 2015. I was their nanny, 3 days a week from 6-18months, then changing to evening, weekend and holiday care sporadically up till most recently in Dec 2025. The twins are now 10 years old, so I have an array of experience across their age changes.
In the school holidays I have the girls plus 2 friends for 2-3 day 'holidash club' sessions.
We go out for nature walks, picking fruit to bring home and bake or collecting flowers & foliage to create arts n crafts. We also create little shows with dance, music and silly fun ideas, plus play outdoor games and when its grey & miserable we make a den, some popcorn & watch a nature documentary or classic musicals / kids animation.
I have also helped the girls with homework, reading, writing and creative projects for school.
Fern has Jasper (now 6) and Bodhi almost a year. I looked after Jasper while his mum was at work or on evenings when she was out in 2022 and since have helped her out on occasion when needed.
I coordinated children's activities at seasonal market days at The Fold in Worcesteshire across 2021-23 ... which included creative treasure hunt on nature trails, learning about plants, animals, water, soil and energy.
