Testimonials

Nicki is so kind caring, gentle but also fun!

“I put my daughter in with Nicki when she was 15/16 months old and it was the best choice I could have made. My daughter only goes 2 days a week but she settled in so easily and quickly as her educator / kaipoipoi is so kind caring, gentle but also fun! Nicki made my daughter and I both feel so comfortable from the get go! This was so important to me as I just had a new baby and was so worried about how my daughter would get on with so many changes happening.

The experiences they get with nurture at home is awesome, such a cool environment for our tamariki with lots of exciting activities. I love how they experience time with their familiar small groups and get the chance to experience learning with large groups of tamariki too. The communication between parent and educator is such an underrated part of this childcare service. I love reading the learning updates from her teacher and seeing the photos of my daughter experiencing new things, learning, making friends and having fun. Definitely recommend placing your child with one of the awesome home based educators that work for Nurture at Home. I couldn’t be happier”

Beautiful company to work with, in fact describing Nurture@Home as a company doesn’t feel right at all – it’s closer to being a large extended family in every sense & words can’t describe how amazing this is. I am thankful and blessed to be part of such a kind, loving, nurturing, heart centered, supportive community. I have truly flourished in my time with Nurture. If your considering either placing your pride and joy with Nurture@Home or becoming an Educator yourself, the only advice I have to offer is – GET STARTED YESTERDAY – because this is a fabulous opportunity & people are clicking on to it. Spaces do not hang around long! Thank you for all of the love, support & opportunities you provide us with as Educators Nurture, we adore you.

🤍 Preparing for Birth with Confidence 🤍

Pregnancy is an exciting journey, but it can also bring plenty of questions, emotions, and sometimes uncertainty especially for first-time parents. That’s why childbirth education can be such a valuable and empowering part of preparing for your baby’s arrival. ✨

Childbirth Education Nelson Tasman offers FREE face-to-face weekend childbirth education classes throughout the Nelson Tasman region, led by Wendy Hardwick a retired midwife with an incredible 41 years of experience, and a passionate current childbirth educator dedicated to supporting growing families. 💛

Welcoming a child into the world is one of the biggest and most special moments in a parent’s life. Having the knowledge, support, and preparation beforehand can make such a positive difference to the birth experience and the transition into parenthood. ✨

Thank you to Wendy from Childbirth Education Nelson Tasman for continuing to support local families with compassion, knowledge, and decades of experience.

If you are expecting a baby, we recommend to get in touch with her!👶🤍
