Hi, I'm Del...
I’m a mum, phonics teacher, early reading specialist, lifelong book lover, and digital artist. I'm also the founder of The Little Reading Nest, where I help overwhelmed mums feel confident supporting early reading, writing, and phonics at home.
I work with busy mums who want to give their child the best start with literacy, but often feel stretched thin by daily life and unsure where to begin. Through simple, low-effort, high-impact tools, I make early learning feel manageable, even on the busiest days.
After more than a decade as an Early Years teacher, SENCo, and Early Literacy Specialist, I understand the pressure parents feel to create 'perfect' learning environments filled with sensory play and elaborate activities. While those activities have so much value in those crucial early years of development, they can feel out of reach on some days.
That’s why I focus on helping mums build strong early literacy foundations through everyday routines. So when there is time for bigger activities, it’s simply building on the learning that’s already happening.
Through The Little Reading Nest, I support families in creating confident, connected literacy habits that fit into real, busy life - because meaningful learning starts in the small moments you’re already sharing.
