I joined Watkins and Tasker Vets in 2005 after completing my Veterinary Nursing Degree. I have managed the Portishead branch as Head Nurse for 10 years and am now our Group Head of Nursing.

My role alongside nursing duties is to support the nursing teams and ensure we always provide the highest level of care to your pets. I am responsible for continuing the development of the nurse team professional skills and knowledge plus also looking after the team’s wellbeing. I am a Mental Health First Aider. The practice has grown a lot since I first started but I love that we have kept the friendly, family atmosphere that makes our staff, clients and pets feel at home.

At home I have two young football obsessed boys, three cats; Kevin, Pig and Doris, ‘Mr Sausage’ the Syrian hamster and a husband who is very understanding that my role has never quite been 9-5.”

I have been working within practice for over 12 years but joined Watkins and Tasker Vets at the Nailsea site in 2014. After qualifying in 2016, and returning after having my third child, I worked at the Portishead Practice. This allowed me to further my clinical skills and become a clinical coach. I really enjoy helping the next generation of vet nurses and love passing on helpful tips that I have learnt along the way. In October 2020, I became the Head Vet Nurse at the Nailsea Practice. It is great to be back where my WTV journey started.

Outside of work I am kept busy with my three young children, husband, chickens, two cats and our two rescue tortoises. If I do get any spare time, I enjoy running and horse riding.

I am a Registered Veterinary Nurse who joined the team in 2006.  I have worked in a variety of roles within the Practice and I enjoy all aspects of veterinary nursing but have a special interest in helping our more nervous patients overcome their fears with socialisation clinics and our Puppy Academy.

When I am not working as a nurse helping to care for your pets, I spend most of my free time walking, training and competing at agility with my Border Collie, Mayhem, or snuggling on the sofa with my Birman cat, Mr Paddy Paws.

I joined Watkins and Tasker Vets in March 2017 and graduated the same year from the University of Bristol with a degree in Veterinary Nursing and Bio-Veterinary Science.

I have a chunky Calico cat called Persephone, and have had pet rats and hamsters in the past. In my spare time I enjoy (attempting) to bake and go to aerial hoop classes.

I moved from Ireland to study Veterinary Nursing and started my training at Watkins and Tasker Vets in 2018. I qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2021. I look forward to increasing my skills in areas such as dental care and developing our Feline Friendly Practices.

In my free time I take part in sports such as rowing and weightlifting.

I joined Watkins & Tasker Vets in November 2018 as a Registered Veterinary Nurse. I have been the Head Nurse of Yatton since 2020.

I have a Hungarian Wire-Haired Vizsla called Lincoln, who I am training to compete in Cani-cross and enjoy going away on trips to explore new countries.

I joined the Watkins and Tasker Vets team in February 2020 as a Registered Veterinary Nurse. I have worked in Practice since 2009 and gained my qualification in 2014.

My main interests are inpatient care, clinical coaching and carrying out nurse consults. I am currently studying towards my Medical Nursing Certificate, so I can further develop my skills in this area.

Outside of work I like spending time with friends and family, horse riding, cooking and keeping fit.

I started at Watkins and Tasker Vets in 2016 as a Receptionist and progressed over the years to become a qualified Veterinary Nurse in 2019. I enjoy all aspects of the job, especially looking after our exotic patients and small furries. I am currently working towards my Exotic Nursing Certificate to help build my knowledge to look after some more unique patients.

At home, I am kept busy with my own collection of small animals and a very mischievous tortoise, Don Juan.

I joined Watkins and Taskers Vets in July 2020 as a Registered Veterinary Nurse after completing my Veterinary Nursing degree.  I enjoy all aspects of the job and in particular enjoy in-patient care, nurse clinics and nutrition.

At home, I have 2 cheeky cats, Charlie and Lola, who are always keeping me on my toes with their antics! Outside of work I enjoy walking and exploring the countryside, as well as playing Netball. I am also part of the EcoTeam at Watkins & Tasker Vets.
