Mrs Jemma Black

I am new to the position of Teaching Assistant, but am not new to working with children! After graduating in psychology, I have worked in a variety of settings with children and young people, within the health service and the education sector. I chose to work from home once I had my own children and have been an Ofsted Registered Childminder for over twelve years. I love working with children and enjoy the new challenges each day brings. I have been a parent at Estcots for eight years and have been part of the Parent and Friends Association (voluntary fundraising team) throughout those years, so I feel like I know the school well, but it’s great to have a new perspective and I am thoroughly enjoying working in the classroom.

When I’m not working, I’m a mum to 3 children and enjoy spending time with them and my wider family. I also like to bake, socialise with friends and do a spot of gardening!
