Kia Ora. Lovely to meet you…
My mission is to help adults to see the child in a new way and develop deeply respectful, reciprocal and authentic relationships. Through this understanding, adults will experience the joy that will come from this way of being with children.
Offering knowledge and experience from 12 years of working with children, families and professionals, I am a fully qualified, (B.Ed (Tchng) ECE) registered early childhood teacher.
