Hi I'm Donna and I am a fully qualified Home Educator with years of parenting and grandparent experience. I am Mum to three grown up children and I'm also lucky enough to have a gorgeous 7 year old granddaughter who I've had the privilege to help bring up and nurture.

Becoming a home-based educator has been the best decision. I've always loved caring for people little, big and elderly. I joined PORSE nearly 4 years ago and since then have completed the New Zealand Certificate ECE Level 4 and cared for many families. Check out what my families say about me by scrolling down to the testimonials.

I am a kind and caring person, who loves working with people and children from all walks of life.
Prior to joining PORSE I spent the last 9 years working with the Elderly as an in home assist for Nurse Maude, which I have loved as I appreciate the elderly and all they offer.

I look forward to working with parents to develop a learning plan specifically for your child.

What I offer
I provide a caring, nurturing, fun, learning environment and a large shaded outdoor area. We have a variety of resources and enjoy crafts, painting, cooking, our new garden, sandpit and fantastic swing and slide set.

I utilize the local community and incorporate lots of creative experiences in my programme. As we have birds, a dog Elmo and cats, animals play a part in my programme I will be providing. I will cater specifically for your individual child and ensure they make the most out of their time spent in my care.

Caring for the community since 1896 Keeping people out of hospital and residential care and in their own homes and community wherever possible was the promise made by Nurse Maude when she started New Zealands first district nursing and home care service in 1896 Today that promise is at the heart of our homecare services across the Nelson and Marlborough region, providing domestic assistance and personal care with skill and compassion.
