My Experience
I'm a mother to 3 wonderful little boys which I believe gives you a wealth of experience first hand and helps you really understand what's important to children and their parents when it comes to childcare needs. I've worked for the NHS for 11 years within the adult service for learning disabilities and profound physical disabilities where I have gained many valuable and transferable skills for my new role. My co-minder (my mum) who is a mother and grandmother has 14 years experience of working in education where she has specialised in SEND.
