Nelson Area Manager and Visiting Teacher
Hi there, I’m Janelle, and with over 30 years of experience in the early learning sector, I’m convinced that home-based care is the gold standard for providing high-quality care and education for children and their whānau. I’ve seen firsthand the magic that happens in home-based settings, where smaller group sizes allow for deeper connections and more personalised attention. I love how our Educators have the freedom to follow the child’s lead, creating a rich curriculum of hands-on learning experiences in the home and community that spark curiosity, wonder, and a love for learning. In home-based care, we’re not just about providing a service – we’re about building a community that feels like a large, extended family. We work together as a cohesive team, supporting one another, and celebrating the unique strengths and talents of each child. I’m passionate about empowering our Educators to be the best they can be and providing the resources and support they need to create a nurturing environment that fosters growth, development, and a sense of belonging.
