My Summary
About Me
I offer a calm, intuitive, and highly professional approach to childcare that supports not only a child’s daily needs, but their emotional, social, and personal development.
My practice is grounded in the understanding that behaviour is communication. I prioritise active listening and considered responses, creating a secure, respectful environment where children feel genuinely seen, understood, and valued. I take pride in acting as a steady emotional guide—supporting self-awareness, confidence, and a strong sense of identity as children grow.
I am passionate about cultivating well-rounded development through nature, the arts, physical activity, and overall wellbeing. I encourage curiosity, creativity, and independence, while maintaining a positive and balanced approach to academics. I aim to instil self-belief and resilience, empowering young people to explore their interests, develop their strengths, and pursue their ambitions with confidence.
My Experience
Through my experience working within the care system, I have developed a deep understanding of safeguarding, confidentiality, and professional boundaries. I am experienced in working within structured environments and understand the importance of adaptability, flexibility, and seamless integration into established routines and expectations.
I have supported children with SEN and SEMH needs, providing a calm, consistent, and nurturing environment.
I naturally build strong, trusting relationships with the children in my care, while upholding clear, respectful boundaries. I support young people in understanding values, expectations, and behaviour in a way that is both consistent and compassionate. In many ways, I act as a mentor for emotional development—helping children navigate their feelings and relationships with confidence and security.
I am organised, self-motivated, and take initiative in both educational and day-to-day settings. I am comfortable adapting to dynamic schedules, travel requirements, and evolving family needs, ensuring continuity of care and a calm, dependable presence at all times.
My Qualifications
Holding a degree in Fashion Communication, I bring creativity into my practice, alongside being a confident driver with seven years’ experience and full flexibility for travel. I have certified training in ADHD and Autism, Trauma informed practice, Psychological first aid, safeguarding and Bereavement and Loss.
