About Me

Hi, I'm Leonie, I provide a small, intimate setting for a maximum of three children per day, to ensure each child receives the best tailored care and attention. I do not offer school pick ups/drop offs and my setting is tailored towards children who are not yet school age. My own daughter who is 16 months old is included in my numbers, meaning most days I have two available spaces. My program is rich in outdoor time, excursions, and activities, designed to promote learning and development in a fun and engaging way. With my extensive background in education and child development, I use my experience to provide a nurturing environment where children can thrive. Hours are 8 - 6, possibly with a very slight flexibility, and home-cooked meals are provided for a small daily charge. We also have a small, friendly Shih-Tzu.

My Experience

I have 17 years of experience working with children. I started working as a full-time Nanny, then trained as a Primary School Teacher, completing a PGCE course at the University of East London, before spending the last 7 years working as a Governess both overseas and in the UK. I am trained in Lego-Therapy, a form of play therapy aimed towards helping children with SEN communicate effectively and I hold a TEFL qualification.
My specialist areas are preparing children with English as an additional language for the UK education system, working with Gifted and Talented children and using Music to encourage development.
