Hello

Hi I'm Jenni, a mother of 5 and childcare professional of over 12 years. 

I currently work in a local primary school nursery, in Teddington. 

​

At the beginning of lockdown in March 2020, the preschool I worked in closed temporarily. Children in schools were offered anternative provision, but many nurseries didn't offer this.

Myself and a colleague started a facebook page called 'Teenyminds'. In order to offer fun, educational activities to children and to help stay in touch with children and parents.

This helped the transition back into preschool, once things were open again. 

Since then, I have moved on from the nursery scene and am working in a local primary school as a Year 1 TA. I had very little time to continue posting educational activites, so started to post #ARTMondays on social media and running an afterschool art club, instead.

​

I have always enjoyed planning and creating pieces of Art at home. I think Art is a great way for children to learn how to express themselves, build confidence and improve mental health. ​
