University of Leeds Institute of Education, Leeds, Yorkshire, England, lecturer, 1949-57; Educational Clinic, London, Ontario, lecturer, 1958-60; Teacher's College, London, Ontario, staff member, 1960-63...
From 1963 she was able to be a full-time author. Here is a fellow professional's take on her work:
Tim and the Hidden People by Sheila K McCullagh is a 1970s reading scheme originally devised for young children 4-7 yrs. It consists of 32 books, each 32 pages long and illustrated by Pat Cook and later Ray Mutimer. There are also four lesser known paperback "novella" books intended for older readers. ...
The Tim books are about a boy called Tim who lives in a house in The Yard. The books begin with Tim finding a key which enables him to see the Hidden People, he befriends Tobias the black cat and has many adventures.
Of course she wrote many other books, and in fact won an MBE, a high honor in Britain.
And here is an illustration from one of her books.

Her funeral notice describes McCullagh as: "Much loved companion of Lois, aunt of Michael and teacher of reading to millions through her books."
