About Me

-Available during school hours (9-3) Mondays and Tuesdays from Sept 2024.
-I'm open to term-time only care if required.
-Queens Park/Hanover area.
-I have a calm, playful, connection-based approach.
-I love helping children enjoy time in nature, and love facilitating creativity of all kinds- music (especially singing), art, crafts, building, baking, imaginative play, stories...
-I love nurturing children's natural passion for learning through play and exploration, and I never stop being inspired by all they have to teach me in turn.
-Highly experienced working with children with many different disabilities and individual needs for over 15 years
-I work part time to fit around my job with a local early years charity.
-Interested in RIE/Montessori/Peaceful parenting/Whole brain child etc.
-Top childcare motto: 'start with empathy'!

My Experience

-4 years (and counting) working as an At Home Childcarer registered with Brighton & Hove City Council.
-7 years working with families as a nanny and helping run specialist play/home ed programmes for children on the autism spectrum
