I have worked in the field of Early Years for 18 years before joining Higher Education. My work was based in nurseries and children's centres in the main and I undertook roles including Early years Pedagogue, Senior Children's Development and Learning Co-ordinator and Early Years Professional Co-ordinator. My work took me right from working with young children and their families directly to eventually taking on the role of Early Education Lead for a Local Authority where I had responsibility for overseeing quality assurance in early years services for the borough as well as working strategically with other partners.
I have previously worked within higher education as an assessor, mentor and visiting lecturer and I am now in the role of Lecturer in Early Years Education.
I have taught across all programmes within our Early Years Education Department. My current teaching is mainly on the FdA Early Years Education and Leadership and BA (Hons) Early Years Education and BA (Hons) Early Years Leadership. I am also Programme Lead for these 3 programmes.
My research interests include consultation with young children and enabling early years environments.
