My Summary
About Me
I am a qualified teacher with experience in Early Years and KS1. My top priority is to provide the children in my care with a safe, warm and welcoming environment. Being a father, I wish to be an exemplary male role model in the lives of the children I look after. Through a wide range of activities, learning opportunities and resources, children will be encouraged to explore the world and grow their confidence and independence. I have planned meaningful routines which include various out-of-setting activities, such as library visits, soft play, parks, animal farm trips, and much more. Self-expression and communication are at the centre of the practices I follow. These are flexible in a way that ensures the healthy development of every single child I care for. I am a step-father of my partner’s 10-year-old girl and 13-year-old boy who have been an invaluable influence to our 3-year-old son. We also have the pleasure to provide an outdoor space where children can explore and learn in a safe, homely environment.
My Experience
I have a wide experience in education, in the private and state sector. I have worked with nursery children as well as big classes of 30 children from Reception to Year 2. I can help primary school-age children with their homework. I speak fluent English and Greek.
