A Foundation Built in Education
I hold a first class BEd Honours degree in Education with Science and have spent 28 years working as a class teacher and Wellbeing Lead. That depth of classroom experience shapes everything I do, giving me a genuine understanding of how children learn, grow, and thrive.
Specialist Training in Coaching and Wellbeing
I am a Certified Children's Life Coach and hold NCFE CACHE Level 2 qualifications in both Counselling Skills and Children's Mental Health. I am also a trained NLP Practitioner, equipping me with powerful, evidence-informed tools to support lasting change.
Community Roles and Awards
I am a PAPAYA presenter, a National Nurturing Schools Lead, and achieved the Angel Award for Young Carers in School. I volunteer with Home-Start Charity and am an active member of Smartphone Free Childhood, reflecting my commitment beyond the coaching room.
