I began my career in music some 17 years ago by running classes for the Poole franchise of Jo Jingles. I ran my classes in the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Ferndown areas, together with providing birthday parties across Dorset. I also planned, organised and ran Summer sessions during the holidays.

During this time, I developed many long-lasting friendships and a strong interest in how music plays an important part in children’s development.

In 2018, I joined a private nursery in Bournemouth. After studying for 2 years, I became a qualified Nursery Practitioner gaining a CACHE level 3 Diploma for the Early Years Workforce (Early Years Educator). Alongside this I hold a Level 2 certificate in Child Protection, together with various other qualifications in relation to child development in the early years.

I also have an enhanced DBS Certificate and Paediatric First Aid qualification.
