Meet the Team

Hello, I’m Charlotte, franchisee of Story Sense Exeter, and I run classes across Torbay, Teignbridge and Exeter. With over 12 years of experience working with children under six, I am passionate about creating meaningful early years experiences that inspire confidence, curiosity and a love of learning. I am Level 3 qualified in Children and Young People’s Workforce, and have worked across a range of settings including primary schools, childminders and private nurseries, building strong relationships with children and families throughout my career. My Story Sense journey began as a parent, attending classes with my own children, Millie and Albie. Watching their faces light up with wonder, excitement and joy sparked something really special in me, and I instantly knew Story Sense was something I wanted to be part of. Nearly three years later, Story Sense has become my full-time role, and since going full-time in March, I’ve loved growing the business even further. I now deliver sessions across nurseries, childminding settings, community classes and play cafés, as well as working in collaboration with local businesses to bring Story Sense to even more families. As a mum myself, I know just how precious those early years are. I bring both professional knowledge and personal experience to every session, including an understanding of breastfeeding, cloth nappies, baby-led weaning and babywearing, helping to create a warm and welcoming space where families feel supported and children can truly thrive. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing children’s confidence grow, watching them become immersed in the magic of stories, and sharing those special moments with families week after week. I feel incredibly lucky to do something I love every day and to be part of so many children’s early learning journeys.
