I am children’s picture book author creating gentle, heart-led stories for young children. I’m also a mum to two boys, and much of my writing is inspired by the everyday moments of family life; the big feelings, the questions, the resistance, the humour, and the small moments that often shape childhood.

 

Many of my stories began as reflections from life “in the trenches” of parenting, where emotions are real and rarely tidy.

​

Alongside writing, I work as a career coach and resume writer, and my background in coaching has shaped how I think about emotions, behaviour and the way children (and adults) make sense of the world. That understanding quietly informs my storytelling, without ever losing sight of warmth, simplicity, and reassurance.

​

My books are written to help children feel seen and supported as they navigate everyday experiences and to offer parents a little comfort too. I believe stories don’t need to fix feelings; they just need to create space for them.

​

When I’m not writing, I’m immersed in family life, finding inspiration in ordinary moments that often become the heart of a story.

 

This website is a place to explore my books, find gentle resources, and stay connected as new stories are released.
