My Summary

My Experience

I have a number of years experience raising my own little boy which has allowed me to have well established routines and create nutrition-guided menus that cater for various allergies. I have additional experience in working with nieces and nephews of various ages and am able to support children in their journey to big school!

I cater for ages 6 months to 8 years and my hours will be Mon - Fri 7.30am - 6.00pm. I have early drop-off and late pick up options available and will also be available for babysitting where needed.

I live central to Southport giving us the opportunity of many trips out where possible to the town centre with all its various activities, the seafront, local soft play, museums and libraries!
