​

I have an extensive background in Special Educational Needs & Disability (SEND), specialising in Autism and I am a qualified Play Therapist.

​

I have worked within education for over twenty-five years, and as a Teacher for over twenty years. I qualified as a Nursery Nurse in 1990 and spent several years working in nurseries and schools. I then went on to train as a Teacher at Christchurch University in Canterbury, qualifying in 1999. Once I qualified, I went on to work in several schools as a primary school Teacher, before moving to a new initiate called Sure Start. I was one of the first teachers in the country to work in a Surestart programme, which then became a Children’s Centre. After 13 years working in the Children’s Centre I left to become a Specialist Teacher in special educational needs for the Local Authority.

In September 2018, I left the Specialist Teaching Service to set up my own business, delivering training and consultancy advice both face to face and online, to Nurseries, Schools, Organisations and Parents on all areas of SEND. Since 2018, I have delivered training to lots of Kent Nurseries, Primary schools, SEND schools, Children’s homes, Health Visitors, Educational Organisations. I trained as a play therapist in 2018, and currently deliver play therapy services in 2 Primary schools in Kent. I have also delivered training and consultancy advice on behalf of The Educational People.
