Background and experience
I am originally from Scotland although I have made London my home for the past 16 years. My journey into a career in childcare began many years ago when I was a fresh-faced kibbutz volunteer in Israel. I had the pleasure of working in the kindergarten there with young babies which I loved. I was told by my colleagues that I had a natural affinity with young children.
This was something that stayed with me and led me into studying an HNC in Childcare and Education years later back in my home town of Glasgow. After qualifying in 1999 my son Solomon was born and I was glad of everything I had learned as I ventured into the unknown world of motherhood. I have worked as a Nanny and Childminder ever since.
I have been so privileged and happy to have worked with many, many families over the past 16 years, most of whom I am still in touch with. I have a deep understanding of children and how they learn and develop.
