My Summary
About Me
Please note: I am not currently seeking any childcare opportunities or new commitments.
I'm a friendly, caring and dedicated individual with a strong passion for children's education, wellbeing and development.
I hold a Master's degree in Special Educational Needs and Inclusive Education and am currently completing my PGCE Primary with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).
I have experience working in both mainstream primary schools and specialist educational settings, supporting children with a wide range of abilities and additional needs. In particular, I have worked closely with autistic children, providing individualised support to promote their communication, emotional regulation, independence and confidence.
I believe that every child is unique and deserves an approach that recognises their individual strengths, interests and needs. I particularly value positive relationships, emotional wellbeing and learning through play and meaningful experiences.
Outside of my studies and professional commitments, I enjoy spending time outdoors, exploring nature, reading and engaging in creative activities.
My Experience
I hold a Master's degree in Special Educational Needs and Inclusive Education and am currently undertaking my PGCE Primary with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).
My academic background also includes a Foundation Degree in Early Years and a Bachelor's degree in Special Educational Needs, reflecting my strong commitment to education, child development, and inclusive practice.
I have professional experience working in both mainstream primary schools and specialist educational settings, supporting children across different age groups and with a wide range of learning needs.
In particular, I have extensive experience working with autistic children and young people, including providing one-to-one support in specialist school environments. This has helped me develop a strong understanding of neurodiversity, communication differences, sensory needs, emotional regulation, and individualised learning approaches.
Throughout my professional experience, I have supported children's social, emotional and cognitive development, encouraging independence, confidence and positive relationships. I believe in creating nurturing, inclusive environments where children feel safe, understood and valued.
My current teacher training continues to strengthen my knowledge of the National Curriculum, child development, adaptive teaching and evidence-informed educational practices.
I am passionate about supporting every child's individual development and helping them reach their full potential, regardless of their abilities or additional needs.

Guida came to our rescue when our usual nanny fell ill. She helped us out for over 2 weeks looking after two busy 2 year olds. We do a nanny share so there was a lot to take in covering both houses. Guida picked everything up quickly and the kids took to her immediately. She has her own daughter of 3 years old so knew exactly where to take the kids to keep them entertained. They were out at parks and playgrounds and had a ball. She’s very kind and nurturing and we really enjoyed having her in our space. We will definitely stay in touch!
