Originally from the UK, Clare studied at the University of East London and obtained a Post Graduates Certificate in Eduction. Her career as a teacher and passion for cultures and travel enticed her into a new dimension of education within the expat community in the Netherlands. Clare has worked at the International School of Amsterdam, Amsterdam International Community School and the International School of the Hague. Holistic well-being has always been a dedicated aspect of Clare’s pedagogy as an educational practitioner and in 2022 she certified as a Child and Adolescents Counsellor.

Clare passionately advocates that every child deserves the opportunity to be the best version of themselves, to have a positive perspective of themselves, others around them and the world they live in. Clare uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to support even our youngest children in building confidence, tackling negative thoughts and negatively reacting to ‘big emotions’.
