  My love for the water started at an early age, I used to go swimming with my Dad and siblings every week. I then went on to lessons and after that it was very difficult to get me out of the water!

  Before finding Puddle Ducks I worked in retail as a customer service manager before working as a childminder. I’ve always loved working with children, watching them grow and progress is such a rewarding experience.

  In 2019 I welcomed my beautiful daughter into the world (who is also a little water lover). I took some time out to be with my daughter after she was born before joining Puddle Ducks. 

  I am absolutely in love with this job! The smiles and laughter I hear when teaching is just incredible. What I also love about this job are the amazing life preservation skills that are built into every lesson plan, so that our little ones are learning to be safe whilst having fun in and around water.

  I can’t wait to meet your little Puddle Ducks and create wonderful memories together in the pool!

  I have always loved being in and around water, as a young child I loved collecting pennies from the bottom of the pool that my Dad used to throw in.

  After being spotted aged 8 by a diving coach throwing myself into the pool in a somersault at the local leisure centre I was asked to join the local diving team. This soon led to County and National teams where I won National medals and a couple of National titles.

  At the age of 16 it was time to choose between my two loves - diving and musical theatre, I chose the latter and went on to train at London Studio Centre and perform in many shows.

  After my daughter was born I knew I wanted her to have the same confidence, respect and love of the water that I have. A friend of mine recommended Puddle Ducks and I have not looked back!

  I instantly fell in love with the whole concept and I knew I had to be a part of it. I count myself so lucky to be able to do a job that I love, find so rewarding and teaches an invaluable life skill.

  I'll look forward to seeing you soon x
