The most important job in the world!
Caring for children in their early years is the most vital influence anyone will have on their lives. With the decisions and experiences you give them having a lifetime of impact. Despite this, they do not come with a personalised guidebook and rarely do what might be expected, making these years seem tough. But it doesn't need to be.
I Work with families, settings and schools, helping them to identify and celebrate the impact of effective childhood experiences. And using these as preparation for all of life’s learning, development and personal growth.
