Qualifications:

I am a qualified Teacher from Northern Ireland with a first class honours Bachelor of Education degree. I have taught in a secondary school for 7 years mainly in the Technology and Design Department and the Geography Department, but I've also taught Physics and Games.

Reference:

"Anja has looked after my 2 year old daughter on a number of occasions and I would highly recommend her to other parents. My daughter felt immediately at ease, Anja played really well with her and she just got on and sorted things like lunch easily. With her teaching background I felt very safe leaving my daughter with her as she has the experience and is really easy to get on with. "
