I’m Michaela, a Montessori teacher and nanny with over 15 years of experience supporting children through a caring, respectful, and holistic approach.
My work is rooted in creating nurturing environments where children feel safe, seen, and free to grow. Through meaningful, child-led play, I gently weave together Montessori principles, meditation, yoga, storytelling, and forest-school-inspired adventures. My intention is to support the development of independence, patience, kindness, confidence, and joy — allowing each child to unfold in their own time.
In the water, my passion lies in helping children develop a natural, trusting relationship with it — a sense of truly feeling at home. Whether supporting first swims, overcoming fears, or discovering the quiet magic of floating, my aquatic practice centres on relaxation, confidence, safety, and playful exploration.
