Hi families, My name is Kirsten and I am 27 years old. I have been working with children since I was 17, starting in preschools. I have my nanny certificate, level three ECE certificate, and a current first aid certificate.

I started as an Educarer with JeMMa’s in 2007 and I’m loving it!

I have been with Jemmas for the last five years and previous to that I was doing homebased care for Barnardos for 11 years and privately for four years.

We do many activities - water-play, arts and crafts, baking and many more and the children are always busy.

My name is Adele and I come to you with over 15 years experience. I have raised three beautiful daughters and have cared for preschoolers, including twins.  I am a passionate Playcentre Mum and still attend, promoting learning through play and nurturing developmental challenges and social skills.  I provide safe and quality learning experiences while empowering children to lead their learning through play.

Hi everyone,
My name is Laura. I'm from the UK and moved to NZ in 2017 with my lovely family. I have two children Leo who is 5 and Ava who is 3.
I have a passion for giving my children an amazing upbringing and give them as many experiences as possible. We love to be outside exploring and playing games. We are lucky enough to have lots of outdoor space for the children to run around in.

My name is Shina Ali. I’m from Fiji and moved to NZ in 2015. I was a qualified Dietitian back in Fiji. I’ve worked in daycare for more than 2 years before my son Isaac was born who is almost 8 months old now.

I have attended Food safety course while I was working in Rainbows end and Children Focus-community nutrition course with Heart foundation and Pacific Heartbeats during my work in a daycare center.

I have a great passion for working and caring for children and giving them as many experiences as possible. Isaac loves meeting new people and his such a happy baby to be around and he loves being outside exploring and playing. We are lucky enough to have lots of outdoor space for children to play and run around in.
