Member Profile

My career working with children and families spans over 35 years, during which I have been dedicated to nurturing and supporting their development. As a community nursery nurse, I worked closely alongside health visitors to ensure families received the resources and care necessary for healthy growth and development.

In addition I have also worked as a Childminding Network Coordinator, playing a pivotal role in connecting families with quality childcare options. My passion for early childhood development has also led me to teach baby massage and baby yoga classes and I have been teaching classes for 20 years in various settings, including yoga studios and children’s centres.

I firmly believe in the power of holistic practices to enhance the bonds between parents and their children while promoting physical and emotional well-being. I am very passionate about my work and my approach is friendly and supportive.

I love the interaction with parents and witnessing them build the relationship with their baby.This journey has been deeply rewarding, i feel very honoured to be able to make positive imprints and I remain inspired by the families I work with and the incredible potential of every child.
