With over 20 years of nannying experience across all age groups from newborns to teenagers, including twins—I specialize in supporting children with additional needs including ASD, ADHD, ADD, OSD, and PDA. Currently pursuing a Diploma in Community Services, I've discovered my true passion working as a support specialist for families with children who have additional needs.
For 28 years, I built and operated a successful beauty therapy business, running my own salon for 17 years. This entrepreneurial journey developed my organizational skills, time management abilities, and attention to detail—qualities that translate seamlessly into providing reliable, professional childcare. My business experience taught me to create safe, welcoming environments while managing multiple responsibilities and anticipating needs before they arise.
When surgery required me to close my business last year, I embraced this transition as an opportunity to pursue my newfound calling in childcare and education.
As a mother to an 18-year-old son, I've navigated every stage of child development—from early childhood care through supporting a teenager with academic challenges and personal growth. This hands-on parenting experience has instilled in me the patience, adaptability, and understanding that forms the foundation of my childcare approach.
I combine maternal wisdom with professional expertise, creating an environment where children feel secure while being encouraged to reach their potential. My approach emphasizes nurturing support within gentle structure, helping children thrive at their own pace.
The mutual connection I've discovered with children who have additional needs has revealed where my true passion lies. They are drawn to me as much as I am drawn to them, creating the foundation for meaningful, supportive relationships that help children flourish.
