Meet Our Team

I started my teaching journey working in a Montessori centre and studying to gain my teaching degree. After graduating I took some time off to travel and spend time with family and friends in Canada. Prior to joining the Kidditech team I had been teaching in an ECE centre in Opawa.

I am a passionate teacher who values building strong respectful relationships with tamariki and their whānau. I believe in fostering curiosity, confidence, friendship and fun in the classroom encouraging tamariki to love learning and reach their full potential. I am very excited to be a part of you children’s learning and growing journeys.

I have been a relief teacher at Kidditech on and off for years. I am currently filling a maternity leave position and work school hours every day.

My husband Tony and I have two daughters who are both at school and in my spare time I enjoy baking, gardening and sewing.

I enjoy teaching at Kidditech because I love seeing the children grow and develop and we have a great team to work with. I love offering children experiences in craft and baking and particularly enjoy gardening.

I’ve been at Kidditech since 2010. After a couple of years here I headed off on my big OE. However, after an amazing 2 and a half years travelling some of the world it was time to come home, I loved being at Kidditech so just had to come back! After being in a teaching role for a few years I moved into the centre leader role here leading the teaching team.

When I’m not travelling I love relaxing with a book, heading out of town to enjoy the countryside and spending time with family and friends.

I love working with children as I get to learn alongside them and encourage their ideas as new discoveries are made. I enjoy developing and inspiring children’s learning through fun and creative activities.

I’ve been part of the Kidditech since January 2017 for 2 days a week while studying towards my degree in Early Childhood Education. I have always known I’ve had a passion for teaching young children. This started when I was Irish dancing, working with and alongside the younger dancers.

My partner Ben and I have a school aged daughter and a preschool ages son. The days that I’m not working consist of family time, gardening, house renovations and being outdoors.

As a teacher, I believe providing an environment that allows children to; explore, experiment, learn and develop independence is one which they will thrive in.

I’ve been a teacher at Kidditech since July 2018 after relieving for 5 months, I loved Kidditech too much and just had to stay.

I studied in the UK and have both my early childhood and teaching degrees. I have always enjoyed working with children as I love the way they view the world with wonder and delight. My working life has always been jobs with children from being a swimming teachers assistant, a holiday club leader and then on to teaching.

Outside of work I spend time with my husband and two children.We really enjoy going on walks to explore this beautiful country, which is still quite new to me. I also love to bake and get creative in the kitchen with new ideas and designs. If I get some quiet time I can be found with my head in a good book as I am a huge bookworm.

As a teacher I believe in providing an environment where children and families feel safe and included. Helping children to explore, develop and understand their own ideas is a very important to me. I look forward to meeting and getting to know you.
