About
Sue Wheeler

The Trainer
Safe In Your Hands training and consultancy was launched in 2017.
I am a qualified teacher and nursery nurse and began my teaching career in 1998 when I qualified from King Alfred's University.
I have worked in schools in both England and Spain, have lectured at Bath College teaching Early Years Practitioners, have worked for Barnardo's BASE training the night time economy and now I run my own business, Safe In Your Hands.
I have specialised in safeguarding throughout my career.
Safe In Your Hands offers training and consultancy for those working with adults and children in any sector.
Background Information
I am passionate about teaching people how to keep children and adults safe and secure. I have a wealth of knowledge and experience in this area and I alsways strive to make my training informative, interesting and interactive.
​
My education background has given me the opportunity to work with people of all ages, of all orientations and from all walks of life. I love interacting with delegates, imparting knowledge, listening to experiences and learning from them too!
​
I have had a variety of work opportunities, working as a deputy manager at a nursery, a primary school teacher, a lecturer at college, a trainer for a children's charity and now the owner and founder of my own training and consultancy business. All of these opportunites have allowed me to grow and develop as a person.
​
I believe that training should not just be a way to gain new skills and knowledge but it should also be a valuable opportunity to meet and interact with other practitioners; building relationships, sharing good practise and supporting each other through what can be a challenging time.
