I have worked in childcare for over 22 years, with experience as a private nanny and in nursery settings. I am NNEB and First Aid qualified. I have been a member of staff at Jiminy Cricket's since 2014. Both my children attended JC's, they are now at primary and secondary school. I am thrilled to manage such a fantastic team.
Since finishing my NNEB at college, I have worked with children aged 0 - 5 years in various day nurseries & Pre-Schools over the last 20 + years.
I have a daughter and twin
boys of my own who keep me
very busy!
I joined the friendly, professional team at Jiminy Cricket's after working in Year R and Year 1 and then a nursery for more than 11 years. I have 3 grown up daughters and a baby grandson and hope for some more one day! I love working with young children and delight in their development and daily achievements.
I am NVQ3 qualified with over 20 years of experience working with children. I also have five beautiful children of my own which keep me very busy!
I am so lucky to be part of such a wonderful team here at Jiminy's where the love and dedication to all the children clearly shines through.

In 2014 I qualified as a Primary school teacher specialising in Early Years. I taught in Reception until I had my son in 2017 and then went onto have my daughter. I joined the wonderful team at Jiminy Cricket's in April 2020. It is such a pleasure to work at a lovely Pre-School and to see the children thrive.
I have been working in childcare for 14 years. During this time I have worked with children aged 0-5 years in two different nurseries. I have two young daughters, who have attended Jiminy Cricket's. I started working at Jiminy's in November 2020 and I am really enjoying working with such a great team and watching the children grow and develop.
