My Background and experience
I have been a home-based childcare educator since 1981. Originally from Colombia in South America, that is where I spent my childhood. Before relocating to New Zealand, I worked as a secondary teacher in Ecuador. Upon my arrival in New Zealand, I continued to nurture my passion for working with children as a home-based childcare educator. I have now lived in New Zealand for over 20 years, with Spanish as my first language and English as my second.
My Home-Based Childcare Philosophy
My philosophy for home-based childcare centers on cultivating a fun and engaging learning atmosphere. I recognize the significance of nurturing each child’s unique talents through creative arts and crafts, which helps to inspire imagination and curiosity. By embracing play-based learning, children can explore their interests at their own pace, allowing them the time needed to learn and flourish.
My learning Environment
I love fostering creativity and provide a wide range of arts and crafts for the children. Additionally, I offer various learning resources that allow them to engage and explore their individual interests.
