About Me

Hi,

I’m conscientious, caring, and (with the right audience) very very silly.

I have a background in art and literature, am a qualified yoga teacher, and love to sing, dance, and adventure in nature. I’ve worked jobs in and around Brighton for the past 10 years, including at Portslade’s climbing centre, as a freelance yoga teacher, and as a kids swimming teacher where I worked with ages 3-12.

The most important thing to me as a childminder is that kids always feel accepted, loved, and encouraged. At any age, playing, learning and exploring should always be prioritised. As a carer, it is my job to facilitate this and it's a massive bonus that I can also help parents rediscover some of their autonomy!

I would love to make a difference in your day-to-day. Whether that’s freeing you up to enjoy a night out, or providing a full day's care as you return to work.

Things I offer for infants:
- gentle yoga-based movement
- gentle massage for infants
- contact napping
- sling napping
- pram napping

For toddlers and up:
- kids yoga
- story time
- creative/art
- play
- days out to age-appropriate galleries/museums, soft-play areas, parks etc.

I will always follow the schedule and personal preferences of each family I work for. My goal is to alleviate and help, not disrupt your pre-established processes.
