My Summary
About Me
I am the owner of Emz Little Gemz, offering warm, nurturing and inclusive childcare because your child is precious. I have over fifteen years of experience from nursery to Year 6 and specialist SEN expertise, I provide a safe, calm and child centred environment where every child can thrive.
