My Summary
About Me
Hi, I’m Lani! I live in Newquay, where I’m lucky to enjoy the beautiful beaches and coastal paths on my doorstep. In my free time, I love sea swimming, playing guitar, time with my family, practicing yoga, and getting lost in a good book.
I come with 9 years of experience in Early Years childcare and specialize in outdoor learning and additional needs; I am committed to supporting and advocating for Neurodivergent children and their families. My approach is warm and holistic, grounded in child psychology and respect for each child’s individuality. I focus on fostering trusting and playful relationships where children feel safe, valued, and confident.
I’m passionate about helping children build a strong sense of self through promoting their independence, resilience, and emotional well-being. I love encouraging them to explore the outdoors, from nature walks to messy play and storytelling. I believe time in nature is a crucial way for children to connect with the world, grow physically and emotionally, and spark curiosity.
My Experience
- SEND Expertise: Over 3 years as a Special Educational Needs & Disability Coordinator (SENCO), advocating for children & families. Experience supporting a vast range of needs, e.g., neurodivergence, trauma, behaviour challenges, Downsyndrome etc.
- Neurodivergent Advocate & Consultant: Dedicated to propelling the Neurodiversity-Affirming Movement, I encourage people to think differently about difference and strive for equity over equality; 'Different, not less'.
- Holistic Development: Focused on nurturing confidence, emotional well-being, and a strong sense of self-worth in every child.
- Outdoor Learning: Advocate for hands-on, nature-based experiences that promote curiosity and holistic development. Beach & Forest School experience.
- Early Years Knowledge: A deep understanding of the EYFS framework & extensive experience with birth - 5 years.
