My Philosophy

At Bright Minds, my mission is to help children build the confidence and skills they need to truly flourish, both in school and in life. 

In my role as a teacher I am seeing more children struggling with anxiety, school-related stress, and emotional overwhelm, especially since the COVID pandemic. This rise in anxiety and Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA)  shows how urgently we need to nurture social and emotional resilience from a young age - before children lose confidence in their ability to thrive.

As well as developing children's confidence and resilience I am also passionate about supporting neurodivergent minds - children with dyslexia, ADHD, autism, or additional needs - who often find the school environment challenging. My goal is to help them develop the confidence, coping strategies and emotional tools they need to navigate school life successfully. 

In my calm, welcoming space, children are encouraged to decompress, build confidence and learn practical strategies to manage the pressures of modern schooling. When they leave, I want them to feel ten feet tall - proud, capable and ready to shine!
