I am a qualified teacher with over 10 years of experience working in early childhood centres, including leadership roles, and nine years as a teacher aide before completing my teaching degree. I am also a proud mum of six grown children, and working with children has always been my passion.
I have been doing home-based education for over 2 years and have loved transitioning into home-based care, where I can offer personalised care, build strong one-on-one relationships, and truly follow each child’s interests, rhythms, and developmental pace. I believe in educating while I care and caring while I educate, creating an environment where children feel safe, valued, capable, and genuinely connected.
I enjoy creating calm, respectful relationships with children and supporting them to learn through play, exploration, and meaningful everyday experiences at their own pace.
