“I’m not a teacher any more” Daisy? You never were a teacher! She was a teaching assistant, which I know is a tough job, but it’s not the same as being a qualified teacher. Daisy is holding herself out to be a teacher, which is extremely misleading, especially when she’s shilling these courses to help primary school aged children with spelling and times tables etc. It makes people think that they’re getting the expertise of a qualified teacher in Daisy, and they’re not.

More passive aggressive stories, this time showing the person who messaged her profile picture

what an odd collection of stories today. Humble brag about her at least £300 a night air bnb that’s fully booked for the next 2 years. Whinging that her sons broken arm means he won’t do as well in her SATs (I think she’s always properly disappointed that her kids aren’t as clever as she thinks they should be based on HER as a parent - if you know what I mean - I’m sure her kids are perfectly able but she comes across as annoyed that they aren’t child prodigies because she was a TA for a few minutes).
Then all that pass agg stuff about people commenting. She can bore off.

What a bitch Daisy is. If it’s obvious your books are about play, then why is this person assuming they aren’t about play? It’s not obvious at all. Of the four books she shared, two have school in the title and one of them she described as preparing children for school. The other one is On the Go, which the person probably didn’t want as she wasn’t travelling. Daisy is horrible, singling out this comment and complaining about it. Even if she feels this way, there’s no need to share it and she could reply nicely to this person instead. She’s as bad as the original commenter. Actually, she’s worse, as she’s supposed to be a professional and the one with the public platform. Ick.

I used to follow but now she just irritates me. I’m a teacher of over a decade and I cannot stand her ‘I know it all’ ‘school expert’ nonsense. She was a TA for what a year?! ta’s are worth their weight in gold and are fabulous but her peddling this false narrative she was planning phonics and lessons, responsible for you name it and delivering everything under the sun. Sorry no, in no planet would you have had that responsibility and role. Completely false advertising when she refers to herself as teaching. Phonics specialist?! How much training and delivery did you do in your five minutes in a classroom as a ta?
I can’t think of many other ‘influencer’s so full of their own self importance, she’s just a know it all smug.

She thinks she something special. She hit it lucky with that book and now she has nothing left to offer. I think she thought she would become more famous but ultimately she doesn’t have the knowledge to develop her 5 min brand further. She could have done a lot with it. Even if she didn’t want to grow the brand with her kids, she could have re developed what she’s already done - exploring SEND, screens, specific topics etc. As with all this insta lot, they want the fame but don’t want to work for it.

She’s very rude to a lot of people who message her as well, without them she wouldn’t have a following base!

I used to follow her and enjoy her content, especially during lockdown with my young children. However, these days she seems very smug and I’ve also noticed she’s constantly commenting on celebrity posts and acting very fake. Is she trying to drum up more followers for some reason? I always liked how in the past she didn’t seem your typical Instagram mum.

She’s really become an entitled princess recently. In one of her stories today she complained that she’d spent “her own money” “it wasn’t an ad” so she expected it to be brilliant. What, so if it’s an ad then it doesn’t matter as much? I’d bet you’d still tell us all it was the best holiday of your life if you’d been paid for it though, wouldn’t you Daisy? She’s becoming very unlikeable.

Unless you are purchasing the washing on your own line, the word is ‘brought’ Daisy. Tell me again how you’re the expert on teaching children to read and write, and you don’t know the difference between brought and bought.

Daisy, if your niece really cut her head open, then instead of being smugly grateful for your Amazon wish list, I’d be grateful for the NHS, and I’d be taking her to A&E or a walk in centre, not aff linking your stupid first aid box.

I wondered if Daisy had a thread and here it is. The comments about her being rude to people who message her are so true. I messaged her a few years ago asking what age one of her books was for. She replied “all ages”. That was all she said. So, what, my 99 year old grandmother wants a tat bag does she?

Daisy the philanthropist. Quick, somebody notify the honours list, Daisy is missing an OBE! If she writes these books purely to help us, I wonder where she donates all the fees she receives 🤭

Back with her passive aggressive replies of people’s messages. Boo hoo your millionth Disney trip wasn’t as good as the others. Poor thing.

I wish she would just calm down with the Amazon links or is she trying to pay off the holiday to Florida that she’s been hinting at. She’s getting a bit nippy with anyone who brings it up too. Just be a bit more honest that you are doing it for the kickback (hey, we all need to make a living), just don’t make out that you are doing it out of the goodness of your heart 🙄
