Janet Casey
Leader Tumble Tots Reading
Hi, I’m Janet and I’m a leader with Tumble Tots. My journey began in 2009 when I started attending sessions, as a mum, with my son. I clearly didn’t want this fun to end so all these years on I’m still a part of the Tumble Tots family! My son started school in 2011 and I was fortunate enough to join the team as a Tumble Tots lady, where I now work 3 days a week. I consider myself very lucky to spend this time helping the little ones develop their co-ordination, agility, climbing and balance whilst having huge amounts of fun with them, their parents, grandparents and carers, not to mention the other staff. When I’m not ‘Tumble-totting’, I enjoy visiting the seaside and playing badminton.
Ruby Jalland
Leader Tumble Tots Reading
Hi, my name is Ruby, and I am excited to have recently joined the team at tumble tots! I have had a lifelong passion for the performing arts, which I am fortunate enough to share both through my own performances and by teaching young performers several days a week. For me, it is important to do work that you truly enjoy, and Tumble Tots provides the perfect environment to do just that. Helping young minds grow in a lively, supportive atmosphere where work doesn’t feel like work!

I attended Tumble Tots with my grandson 10 years ago and thoroughly enjoyed the classes. I have been a chaperone at many shows, helping back stage and worked in a primary school. It has been wonderful joining Tumble Tots as a trainer, seeing so many happy faces. In my spare time I enjoy meeting up with friends, going to Clubbercise and looking after my grandchildren.
