I have always been passionate about working with and supporting children and families. I have recently graduated from Edge Hill University with a BA (Hons) in Social Work. I have previously worked as a play worker for Brighton Pebbles, an organisation offering weekly drop in sessions for children with SEN and their families. I have also previously worked as a carer for children with special educational needs, such as autism and Down's syndrome. (References available). I have accompanied these children on residential trips as well as doing respite care at my home. I have also worked as a youth worker and carried out other voluntary and paid roles with children. I have a current DBS and can provide reference upon request.
