Chrissy

I have a wealth of knowledge and over a decade of experience working with children. I also have the insight of being a mother to my own two boys. My experience in early childhood education has equipped me with the tools to support and nurture young minds, while motherhood has taught me the importance of empathy, patience, and adaptability. These dual roles have enriched my understanding of child development and education, allowing me to create engaging and supportive learning environments that cater to the diverse needs of children.

Being a home-based educator creates a unique learning setting which allows me to foster a deeply personal, enriching learning environment, where every child’s needs are attentively listened to and tenderly met.

My approach, deeply rooted in the philosophy of Te Whariki and play learning, revolves around crafting bespoke learning experiences that celebrate the individuality of each child, encouraging them to explore, connect and thrive at their own pace.

My learning environment Emphasizes the beauty of learning within the familiar warmth of a home setting, I keenly observe, engage, and inspire, facilitating moments of discovery and growth that are as meaningful as they as memorable. With a decade of heartfelt dedication in home-based education here in New Zealand, I am passionate about continuing to create a nurturing, vibrant space where children feel valued, understood, and excited to learn each day. I love to provide a variety of learning experiences through resources the children are interested in, these include painting, baking, puzzles, letter learning, trains and tracks, picture cards, kitchen play, story time ect and many more! We also explore the community by going to local play groups and parks.
