About me

I am a fun and creative childcare professional with over 20 years’ experience working with children and families. I bring lots of energy, warmth and imagination to my work, and always provide a calm, safe and dependable presence. I have a background in art and drama, I love encouraging creativity through play, storytelling, crafts and games, and I’m happiest when children are laughing, learning and feeling confident to be themselves. I am currently a social worker, which means I’m highly attuned to children’s emotional wellbeing, boundaries and individual needs. I absolutely love my job. Outside of work, my interests include art, fashion and board games — all of which often find their way into fun activities. I have experience with behaviour management, tutoring, teaching, homework club, swimming, crafting, and more. Emily holds a Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts and is also secondary school teaching assistant. She is confident with behavioral management and can provide excellent homework support. She has a great sense of humour and offers excellent emotional care.

She is reliable, trustworthy; I line managed her for nearly a year and I can say that she is always punctual. Really good with the kids. patient and helps with their development, especially the kids with special needs. She runs homework clubs, arts and crafts with some of them. That's her area of interest. She's been my saving grace.

“We love Emily! She is providing a series of night-time sitting for our nine-year-old son. She is patient, knows about and loves kids, and is very kind and responsible. We feel grateful to have found someone who we trust, as it allows us to go out a couple of times a month to really enjoy the city and know that our son is in great care.”
