I'm passionate about providing care and support to young people, with five years of experience in domiciliary care, focusing on children with Down Syndrome and complex learning disabilities. I'm actively pursuing a counseling career through Exeter College to enhance my emotional support skills. I also work as a Learning & Wellbeing Practitioner in a Dartmoor Forest School, assisting children with special needs. Alongside this, I've been a part-time self-employed Massage Therapist for three years, enriching my wellbeing-focused abilities. I believe in the power of play, a crucial aspect of childhood and adulthood that fosters exploration, problem-solving, creativity, and social-emotional development. Beyond work, I'm an avid walker and hiker, often on the South West Coast Path. Nature is my sanctuary, and I'm eager to blend my professional background and personal passions to support children while fostering a connection to nature and play.
