Melanie, home-based educator in Te Puke, with her family at a theme park

Melanie

Kia Ora my name is Mel, I have over 11 years of experience in homebased childcare. We are an outdoor loving whanau who enjoy, camping, fishing, hunting and spending time with our dogs.  This love of the outdoors is also strong within my homebased programme where the natural world is woven into our everyday. 

I have a passion for painting and the creative arts that I share with my care children as I encourage their creativity through exploration, including messy play! Some other experiences we enjoy are baking, waiata, and mat times.  Please contact me to arrange a meet and greet.
