I am now retired to the beautiful Illawarra & I want to share my love of reading with children and their families. Hi I’m Ingrid and although I’m not yet a granny, I can’t wait to be one! I love to read especially to young children and to share wonderful books with them. For my working life I was a primary school teacher (mostly kindergarten), a teacher librarian and a children's librarian at a public library. I value promoting reading and providing a quality role model of reading to children. I value the benefit of singing, playing, reading and talking to very young children to develop their language skills and readiness for reading. I understand the importance of connecting children to books in a stress free and enjoyable way. I especially value the wonderful gift parents have at their disposal in reading to their children as it builds such a wonderful relationship with their child.
