Central Auckland
I am a certified Early Childhood home-based educator with over 10 years of experience.
Supporting little ones as they begin their new journey with love, patience, and understanding is very meaningful to me.
My two daughters have grown up in a warm and safe home environment, and these are the values I love to share with the children in my care so they feel comfortable, loved, and at home.
We enjoy connecting with our community, visiting playgroups, and exploring nature. These experiences help children build friendships, develop confidence, and feel a strong sense of belonging.

My Background and experience
With over 14 years in early childhood education, I am deeply passionate about supporting children during their early years. My journey, alongside raising my own children, has given me a strong understanding of the importance of nurturing care, patience, and meaningful relationships in a child’s development.
My Home-Based Childcare Philosophy
My approach is gently inspired by Steiner philosophy and guided by the principles of Te Whāriki. I believe children thrive in a warm, unhurried environment where they feel secure, respected, and connected.
I value:
- Strong, trusting relationships
- Consistent daily rhythms
- Thoughtful, responsive care
Each child is seen as an individual, and I support their natural development, interests, and unique pace of learning.
My learning Environment
In our small, family-like setting, children are welcomed into a peaceful and nurturing home environment. Our space is shared with our gentle spoodle, Tui, and two friendly bunnies, giving children opportunities to build caring connections with animals.
Through hands-on experiences and a calm atmosphere, children are supported to develop confidence, curiosity, and a genuine sense of belonging.
My Commitment
My goal is to provide a true “home away from home” where every child feels cherished, supported, and encouraged to grow with confidence, curiosity, and joy.
