About Me

I'm an empathetic, outgoing and attentive childcare practitioner based in Hastings, East Sussex. I offer a range of services including babysitting, nannying, and teaching/tutoring, providing personalised support tailored to each child's individual needs. With a background in babysitting, education and childcare, I have extensive experience working with both neurotypical and neurodivergent children, helping them to build confidence, develop new skills, and thrive in a nurturing and supportive environment.

My teaching experience has given me a strong understanding of the many different ways children learn, communicate and engage with the world around them. Having firsthand insight into neurodiversity myself, I am particularly passionate about creating an inclusive, patient and understanding environment where every child feels valued, respected and supported to be their authentic self.

Outside of childcare, I have a love for animals, nature and the outdoors, and I enjoy incorporating outdoor adventures, creative activities and hands-on learning into my time with children whenever possible. I am also happy to assist with pet care as part of my services, making life that little bit easier for busy families.

For parents' peace of mind, I hold an Enhanced DBS certificate, a full UK driving licence, and have access to my own reliable vehicle, allowing me to provide safe and flexible transport when required.
I pride myself on building positive, trusting relationships with both children and parents, offering dependable, compassionate care that helps families feel confident their little ones are in safe and capable hands.

Nothing brings me more joy than seeing children grow in confidence, discover their interests, and feel happy, secure and supported in their everyday lives.
