Sha

She is happily married, and has one adult daughter.  She has successfully completed her NZ certificate in ECE Level 3 and this knowledge is woven through her practice.

Sha’s home is light, bright and warm, and has great indoor/outdoor flow to a lovely safe cobbled and grassed area for outdoor play/messy play.  Her section is also fully fenced. Sha provides a nurturing environment that feels like a “home away from home” for the children in her care. The children are considered part of her extended family and she values forging close friendships with the families whose children she cares for.
Her home is walking distance to many wonderful parks and playgrounds.
She has a passion for nature and the outdoors and many of her planned excursions involve exploring the natural world around us. She enjoys planning creative ways to learn and provides the children with fun and stimulating activities including various arts and crafts, gardening, reading, rhymes and songs, water play, sensory play, baking and imaginative and role play.

Sha takes full advantage of the benefit of having smaller groups of children in her care by attending regular playgroups and library visits. This helps develop social skills and wider friendship networks. She believes in learning through experiences and plans exciting outings to parks, playgrounds, beaches, Auckland botanical gardens, and the many other child friendly activities Auckland has to offer.

Sha believes that childhood should be filled with fun, adventure and exploration. She positively creates an environment where learning through play is encouraged. She believes in the benefits of home based childcare for children in their first formative years where smaller groups ensure individual attention and that the children’s emotional needs are met.  She aims to create a positive environment where children can grow, socialize and learn giving rise to confident, happy and settled children.
