Diane, home-based educator in New Plymouth

Diane

Hi, I'm Didi (Diane) to all my tamariki. I have been a home-based educator for over 16 years, and I am a mother to two boys. I provide a safe and caring environment, where play-based learning is my philosophy. I have a Level 4 Early Childhood Education Certificate, along with an up-to-date First Aid Certificate too. I am passionate about attending regular professional development and enjoy the topics about play, behaviour and transition to school. We enjoy all that Taranaki has on offer, such as visiting playgrounds, parks and the zoo. We love going on bush walks and spending time in nature. The children enjoy the variety of having the option to attend music, Kindy gym and playgroup too. After all this fun, we are home in time for a sleep. I look forward meeting any whānau and your tamariki.
