After graduating from Manchester Medical School I worked as Doctor in the NHS for 5 years before deciding to join the team at Ashbridge. My chosen clinical speciality was Psychiatry and I also completed a BSc in Psychology alongside my medical degree.Professional interests:\u00a0<\/strong>From my experience working in clinical psychiatry and from studying for my Psychology degree I have developed a keen interest in the social, emotional and cognitive development of early childhood, as well as the theories around \u2018Attachment\u2019. I use my knowledge and experience to deliver training sessions with our nursery practitioners about the importance of quality interactions and nurturing care. I have also played a key role in developing and implementing the key person policy.Personal interests:\u00a0<\/strong>Outside of work I enjoy going for long walks in the countryside with my husband, daughter Orla, who attends Ashbridge Nursery at Maxy Farm, and dog, Hector. I am also a black belt in Shotokan Karate and a qualified Ski Instructor!\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
