VALUES

Children are naturally curious - that’s one of the ways they learn. Everything we do, everyone we meet and everywhere we go encourages children to be curious about the world around them so they feel confident to be curious throughout life. 

Confident children thrive because they feel capable and safe learning, exploring and interacting with others. I help build children’s confidence through praise, encouraging independence, setting realistic boundaries, rewarding good behaviours, having positive interactions, listening and being present with them. 

Every child is unique and wonderful.

I encourage individuality by encouraging children to lead with their interests, encouraging them to contribute using their unique talents and helping them build self-love.

Principled children make better choices and demonstrate better behaviours.

I help children develop strong principles by modelling and rewarding honesty, courage, fairness, respect, kindness, empathy, loyalty, trust, patience and gratitude.

Children who develop resilience in the early years will be better equipped to face challenges throughout life.

I help children build resilience by helping them manage their emotions, providing challenging opportunities for learning and encouraging problem solving.
