GL6 6DH 7760 I love nature, being outdoors, appreciating the seasons and what they bring. Simple gardening for a pleasing outlook and a small allotment for growing my own vegetables. I have a horse, a dog and a cat at home. All have been rescued! And I love making their lives better by spending time with them to notice their needs as well as their gifts. I spent 5 years teaching/assisting in a Steiner school in the kindergarten and upper school. This experience allowed me to share arts and crafts in the making in a selfless, encouraging and quiet way. When I left I began baking various breads for my local community and offered baking workshops to children and adults on a one2one basis as well as groups. Also held regular cookery classes at a home in Cheltenham for homeless young adults. A good number of these participants were able to get jobs and their own lodgings with the knowledge they had gained. Recently I have been working with the over 55s to enhance their wellbeing in a holistic way, using mixed methods; NLP, TFH Kinesiology, Nia technique, Steiner philosophy, massage, dance and mindfulness. All of which I have qualified to the practitioner/facilitator level. I love to get to know my people so that they feel comfortable with me. And I can talk their language, using appropriate words and exercise for their bespoke programme. The outcome is always joyful, and a relationship that evolves into a trustworthy friendship. {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":"0","field_care_type_first":null,"field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":"0","field_care_type_second":null,"field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":"0","field_care_type_third":null,"field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":"0","field_care_type_fourth":null,"field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":"0","field_care_type_fifth":null,"field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":"0","field_care_type_sixth":null,"field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":"0","field_care_type_seven":null}
