Local carers in Stroud

Claire M
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.
