My Summary
About Me
I am a warm, creative, and emotionally attuned childcare practitioner with experience supporting children across early years, SEND, and residential care settings. Alongside my practical experience, I am currently undertaking Master’s-level training in Psychoanalytic Observational Studies at NSCAP, deepening my understanding of child development, attachment, and emotional wellbeing.
I have a calm and nurturing approach and enjoy building trusting relationships with children and families. I particularly value creating safe, engaging environments where children feel secure, understood, and able to express themselves confidently.
Before moving into childcare, I worked for many years within the fashion industry and higher education, and I now bring a creative, thoughtful, and highly organised approach to my work with children. I enjoy arts and crafts, imaginative play, outdoor activities, reading, and supporting children’s emotional and social development through play and connection.
I am reliable, patient, and adaptable, and I understand the importance of consistency, communication, and creating a positive atmosphere within the home.
