I work with parents, school founders, and early years settings who want to live, lead, and raise children with more clarity, calm, and emotional awareness.

My work sits at the intersection of psychology, education, leadership, and real-world experience. I hold a Master’s degree in Psychology, I am a qualified Montessori educator, and I spent over a decade working in senior corporate finance roles before founding and running my own Montessori school in London.

I understand both systems and people. Structure and emotion. Strategy and human behaviour. And I care deeply about what actually works in real life, not just in theory.

Before moving into education and parenting work, I spent more than ten years in corporate finance, holding senior leadership roles with international companies including Marsh & McLennan, AIG, Aviva, and Barclays.

My work involved regional leadership, budgeting, systems, compliance, and operational decision-making across large, complex organisations. That experience gave me a strong grounding in structure, responsibility, financial reality, and what happens when systems are either well designed or poorly thought through.

After the birth of my son twelve years ago, I stepped away from corporate life and returned to psychology, later training as a Montessori educator and deepening my work in conscious and respectful parenting approaches.

In 2017, I founded My Montessori School in London, which I ran for seven years.

During that time, I lived the full reality of running a nursery: finding premises, working with landlords, hiring and managing staff, handling parent relationships, navigating inspections, dealing with financial pressure, burnout, and the emotional responsibility that comes with leading a setting for young children.

Those years shaped my work more than any course or qualification ever could.

Becoming a mother twelve years ago changed the direction of my life and work.

It brought me back to psychology, child development, and a deep interest in how we raise children, form emotional patterns, and create family cultures that either support or undermine wellbeing.

Out of that period of study and self-inquiry, I created an online baby-led weaning course that went on to reach parents in over 60 countries. I also built a YouTube channel on conscious parenting, which grew to over 14.4k subscribers.

This work formed the foundation for my later decision to found and run a Montessori school in London.

Over the years, across my online work and my school, I supported hundreds of families through workshops, talks, and education focused on respectful parenting, emotional development, and practical ways of understanding children’s behaviour.

My work with parents focuses on helping them understand children’s emotions, boundaries, behaviour, and developmental needs in a way that is respectful, practical, and grounded in both psychology and lived experience.

At the heart of it, I care deeply about how we raise children.

I am interested in how we support children to grow into independent, confident, emotionally resilient human beings who also experience joy, safety, and self-trust.

That is the thread that runs through all of my work.

 I work with:

 – Early years settings and schools that want grounded support in translating Montessori and respectful principles into everyday classroom life.

 – School founders who are opening or building nurseries and need practical, reality-based guidance through what is often an exciting but overwhelming process.

I am not a theoretical consultant. I do not offer idealised models or one-size-fits-all frameworks.

My work is individual and takes into account the specific realities of each person, team, and setting.

 – My experience of founding and running a Montessori school.

 – My background in child development, psychology, and early years education.

 – My corporate leadership and operational experience

 – The real mistakes I have made and the lessons I have learned

 – The everyday realities parents, founders, and teams actually face.

In awareness, we become freer to choose. Freer to respond rather than react. Freer to align our decisions with our values.

To become more aware is to become more intentional — whether as a parent, a leader, or a team.

The early years are the most formative period of a child’s life. Supporting children, whether through their parents, their teachers, or the founders building their schools, is what truly matters to me.

I am thoughtful, honest, uplifting, and direct in my work.

Like Montessori, I observe, listen, and support.

I help people understand themselves better, become more aware and make choices that are aligned with their values, nervous system, and real-life constraints.

When I work with organisations and school teams, I bring the same grounded approach. I focus on clarity, emotional culture, leadership presence, adult behaviour, and the practical realities of running a setting day to day. I support teams in translating values into routines, boundaries, communication, and workable systems rather than abstract principles.

I am a mother, a founder, and someone who has rebuilt her life more than once.

I understand uncertainty, responsibility, emotional load, and what it means to make difficult choices without guarantees.

That lived experience is present in my work, even when it is not explicitly spoken about.

My work today bridges the analytical and the intuitive, the strategic and the human.

I loved my CFO chapter as much as I love my work in psychology and education. To me, connecting these worlds feels natural.

Whether I am working with a parent, a founder, or a leadership team, my intention is always the same:

To bring more awareness, clarity, calm, honesty, and grounded direction into how people live, work, and lead.
