Hello I’m Karen Gandy,

I’ve been working with children for over 35 years, and so I have a great understanding of their needs and how build on their strengths.

After completing my nursery nursing qualifications I moved to London as a full time nanny. I progressed into early years education and worked in a Montessori school and primary schools and nursery environments for many years.

I am passionate about making a difference and providing creative experiences that improve children’s thinking skills and performance. I believe in encouraging children to nurture themselves to enable healthy mindsets and to build strong relationships, while building on their knowledge and skills.

Building a concrete foundation that captures the importance of effective communication and emotional development that will provide them with a structure of strength and resilience.

I completed my yoga instructor qualification in 2007 and I have been working in schools providing this during the school day or as an after school club session or can be held as a one off session in your setting.

I’ve been working with the elderly / older generation since 2019. This is another dimension of being able to bring nurturing and compassion together. I started off my journey working with a company called Home Instead, where I was working with elderly clients, caring and supporting them in their own homes. I am now self-employed and take on private clients of my own, where I offer home help to meet your own personal needs.
