Meet our Volunteers

Meet Liz – Our Wonderful Doodlebugs 'Nanny'! 💛

With a background in primary education and a degree in Textiles and Fine Art, Liz brings a wonderful blend of creativity, warmth and experience to Doodlebugs. As a volunteer, she’s a calming, joyful presence — always ready to lend a hand with crafts or spark a lovely chat with the children.

Liz says Doodlebugs reminds her of all the best parts of teaching: laughter, imagination and a whole lot of glitter! We’re so lucky to have her as part of the team.

Meet the Marvellous Yvonne – Always Smiling, Always Helping! 🌟🧶

Say hello to Yvonne, one of our much-loved Doodlebugs volunteers! With her warm smile, positive energy and heart of gold, Yvonne brings joy to every session she attends at our London Colney club.

A lifelong local, Yvonne has always been passionate about supporting children — from her days as a Snowy Owl with the Brownies to reading with pupils at St Bernadette’s School. Now, she shares her time with us twice a week, helping little hands create big masterpieces.

When she’s not at Doodlebugs, Yvonne loves reading, knitting and crocheting — and we’re so lucky she’s chosen to share her time, kindness and creativity with us.

We’re absolutely thrilled to have her as part of the Doodlebugs family — the children (and the grown-ups!) adore her!
