Nursery Manager
With over 20 years of experience in Early Years education, I am a dedicated leader and coach supporting children, families, and childcare settings to thrive. I hold a BA (Hons) in Early Years and have worked as a freelance Ofsted inspector, giving me strong expertise in high-quality practice, safeguarding, and effective leadership. I have supported nurseries through inspections, helped new settings open successfully, and worked with teams to create nurturing environments where children and practitioners can flourish. I am passionate about ensuring every child feels safe, valued, and ready to learn, while empowering practitioners to grow in confidence and deliver their very best. At the heart of my work is a simple belief: when children feel secure and understood, they can truly thrive.
