About

I am a friendly and hardworking professional with experience of working in film, TV, events and theatre. I have been working with children for 20 years as a teacher, nursery nurse, nanny, tutor and chaperone and enjoy every minute of it. My first experiences, via tutoring and chaperoning, made me passionate about furthering my career in the industry and I am eager to build upon my current experience and knowledge. I bring a wealth of transferable professional and personal skills from my career as a teacher, key stage leader and manager.
