ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Callan, an outgoing mum of 2 young children. I enjoy meeting and socialising with people and I absolutely love being outdoors and have an adventurous side. I like to ensure my children’s minds are constantly active and make sure they have fun while learning. I moved to Dubai 4 years ago and spent my first 3 years at home and taking full advantage of Dubai life, but I have recently started an exciting position working with small children. I am introverted when I first meet people but once I have gotten to know someone, I have been told I talk a lot.😀  I enjoy the beauty and excitement of Dubai and all that it has to offer.
