I am passionate about caring for children and supporting parents when they need it most. I am based in the North West of England, working mainly in and around Lancashire and Cheshire. I have over 10 years experience in caring for children professionally in a range of roles. I have experience as a nanny, mother's help, carer for children with special needs and a trained hospital playwork specialist. I have worked with a variety of families in the UK and abroad, developing my skills and doing what I love. I have learned that both first-time and experienced parents need support and advice when things get stressful, confusing and a bit overwhelming. I can offer advice on parenting skills which complement techniques that you already use in a non-judgemental way. Because no child or situation is ever the same I can draw on experience to provide alternatives when you have tried everything else. Parents can feel like they have never been busier, so find it all the more important that they time they spend with their children is peaceful, bonding and rewarding.
