As a child I started skiing early and I was a junior and then FIS ski racer, I raced internationally and I loved to help coach and care for the younger children on my race team. The moment I was old enough I qualified to officially become their race coach and traveled around Europe with them training them and taking them to races.

I then went on to become a ski teacher for the disabled and learnt skills on how to include everyone in skiing. It gave me the confidence to share my dedication and spirit for skiing with all my four children as soon as they were ready to be involved and with each child I’ve just expanded my knowledge more and more.

I believe that ‘we ski because we love it’ so I have my own unique philosophy and methods on how to teach young children to ski in a happy and fun way, where they are free to lead the way as the future of skiing. 

It was 15 years of extensive experience and training in the ski industry that led me to achieve the highest qualification globally in snowsports. At age 28 I was holding a gold medal, one that I could go in so many directions with. I considered becoming a high level race coach, a mountain leader showing clients the back country and gnarly decents or running my own ski schools.

However I grew up in a home where for my whole childhood my parents fostered children who needed a safe loving home and through this I was gifted the skills of having a very special connection and ability to communicate with all children. Over my years of working in ski schools, I found that being a parent myself and a British english speaking lady, that families wanted me to ski with their children because they knew that not only would I support them to ski well and love skiing but most importantly that I would take care of them as if they were my own child in the harsh snowy mountain environment. This led me to be to gain the most experience with our littlest skiers.

My oldest son Ossie started on skis at 6 months old, just little plastic skis in the house and then on snow at one years old. He is a young man now and back in 2006 nobody that I had ever seen was doing this, but I believed that he was capable to participate too and I invented all the ways that I possibly could to include him too. Ossie was skiing on flat terrain at 18 months old and then controlling his speed and line by 2.5 years old, he showed me that it was possible, safe and worth it and ever since then I’ve been helping other families to do the same.

Two more sons and a daughter joined our family in 2018, 2020 and 2022 and again with each child I started introducing skiing from soon after they were born until they too were skiing the mountain freely. Over these years I have studied everything that I possibly can to come up with the best philosophies and methods to make their experience of learning to ski as comfortable and successful as possible.

I came to the conclusion that if I keep my focus, skills and knowledge on only skiing with children then I can offer the highest quality introduction and journey to a child becoming a free and skilled all mountain skier possible to obtain worldwide.
