Hello! My name is Frances and I have been nurturing the development of children aged 6 weeks to 10 years since 2016. From 2020, I have focused on assisting families with little ones in their first two years of life and have enjoyed this immensely. When I'm off the clock, I'm often reading to keep my knowledge up to date, with one of my favourites being The Whole Brain Child by Dr Siegel. I have continued to care for children year after year because I find it genuinely fulfilling, and I am passionate about giving little people the best start to life they can have. I believe it really does take a village, and I feel grateful to be a part of that. I am especially interested in neurological development and neurodivergence more broadly.
