After 40 years as a teacher and head teacher along with the care of two of my own children, I have developed a diverse range of skills in childcare and educational development. I am a practicing artist who is passionate about passing on knowledge and skills to children in a fun and engaging way. Children need to be loved, and encouraged to learn about their world through a variety experiences that I am more than qualified to cater for. I have a working with children check, a first aid certificate and years of experience with children who are gifted as well as those with special needs.
