A BIT ABOUT ME
My home is Greystones but I am originally from Dublin. I am the mother of three resilient children, each bravely contending with dyslexia & dyscalculia. My overarching mission is to nurture their growth in areas spanning learning, empathy, and overall success, esteeming each achievement as a significant stride forward
I am committed to nurturing growth in learning, empathy, and overall success. Every accomplishment is a meaningful step, and I celebrate each one with enthusiasm. My unwavering dedication is centered around helping them overcome challenges, not only rebuilding their confidence in literacy but also nurturing their self-esteem.
With the necessary skills and knowledge, I am well-equipped to provide comprehensive education and support to children who may have Autism, ADHD/ADD, DCD (Dyspraxia), Dyslexia, Dyscalculia or are facing challenges related to Emotional Behavioral Difficulties
