About Me

I am a Steiner teacher, childcare practitioner, yoga teacher, forest school teacher and now also a mother. I have a 2 year old daughter Lili, who will be with me on the childminding days. I love the outdoors and all kinds of nature activities, muddy puddles and climbing trees! I like to encourage adventure play and risk taking on the childs level. I also enjoy music and arts and all activities around those subjects. I paint and play the piano and would love to share those with children.

My Experience

I am a trained Steiner/Waldorf teacher from Finland where I mostly worked in after school helping and tutoring children with their homework and coming up with fun and creative activities for them.

In Sweden I worked as a preschool teacher with 2-5 year olds in a multilingual environment for 2 years before moving to UK where Ive worked in childcare settings and being a nanny. Ive worked with all age groups from 6months to 5 years as a room leader trying to make the nursery days as fun and imagination filled as possible!

As a childminder I love coming up with activities that suit the child and really following their unique interests. I enjoy taking the children to nature and to explore outdoors but also to do activities in the city too!
