I’m an experienced mentor, consultant, and educator with over 20 years of experience in early years education. My work spans all aspects of early years practice—from creating rich learning environments and planning responsive curricula to supporting intentional teaching and documenting learning.

With a background as both an educator and manager in early childhood settings, I’ve worked closely with children, families, educators, and students to foster meaningful, developmentally grounded learning experiences.

I work alongside early years professionals to strengthen their knowledge, planning, and reflective practice through practical, context-based learning and high-quality professional development. I collaborate with teams to build dynamic, child-centred environments that inspire curiosity, critical thinking, and community impact.

In addition to my consultancy and mentoring work, I deliver two modules on the BECE course at Dublin City University and offer workshops to individual settings and county childcare committees. My academic foundation includes Paediatric nursing, Nutritionist, a Master’s in Early Years Education, and ongoing doctoral research in STEM education at DCU.
