Forest School Leader, Yoga teacher, BEd in Primary Education ages 3-11 with Qualified Teacher Status, Mother (to a wild thing!), book worm and lover of all things creative, wild and free. Having worked with children for over 15 years from ages 3 to 11, I am inspired by their natural curiosity. I fell in love with Forest School because it gives children the opportunity to develop holistically: to be themselves, to explore, create, to develop physically and emotionally and to grow relationships with others.
As a qualified teacher I found my calling with the Forest School ethos and approach to learning. It combines activity and adventure with education, following the lead of the children, and sparking off their interests. You will find me in my outdoor classroom, helping children build physical and emotional skills, creating a sense of belonging whilst playing in nature.

After 20 years of working in a classroom I decided to expand my knowledge and train in Forest School. I've always enjoyed the outdoors and nature so it was a natural progression. It's great to see the childrens curiosity and enjoyment come to life when they are in a natural environment. I saw this in my own three children who we took on many a trip to the countryside. I embrace the values of Forest School where children learn through child lead activities, enabling them to gain self esteem and a sense of belonging. I strongly believe that it gives the children a greater sense of well being.
I fell in love with Forest School after working alongside Ellie and Chris, as a qualified primary school teacher. Joining them both in Little Sprouts over the past few years has been so much fun, helping children explore and learn through nature. Forest School enables children to develop their resilience, emotional and social skills as well as having a blast outside!

My past experiences include running Field Trips on the Jurassic Coast, working in Lapland and living in Seville. I am an enthusiastic and passionate advocate for the benefits of nature and the outdoors for all. I am a qualified Forest School leader and run sessions within schools and at venues across Staffordshire. My favourite thing about Forest School is allowing everyone the space to have freedom and choice. This means, with the same resources groups can create many different outcomes. I am excited to bring a mixture of passion, knowledge and skills to the Little Sprouts team!
