Our Belief System

We believe that finding the best education and care for children comes down to finding the best educators! We know that people with a passion for their role in children's lives are essential. We prioritise finding (and keeping!) educators and nannies who understand the impact they have on education and development in the early years.

​

Our team adopts a respectful interactions approach always. We believe that children have a right to:

-Have a strong sense of identity

-Connect with and contribute to their world

-Have a strong sense of wellbeing

- Be confident and involved learners

-Be effective communicators

Michaela was so lovely with our little one. We felt comfortable to leave after we saw how well entertained she was. It was a nice touch that she also sent us some photos throughout the day! 

Thanks Michaela and the Ambient team!
