Mission
To provide a nurturing and happy environment for young children where they can learn to think independantly in a comfortable, outdoor setting - what every city child needs!
About meI have always loved children! From a young age, I was 'recruited' among family members and friends to look after their children. After studying music (performance and teaching), I combined my two greatest loves - children and music - and became a class music teacher at a local private school. Subsequently I studied Early Childhood Development and the rest is history. I have worked with children both in and out of South Africa for many years. I believe in learning through personal experience as well as the focus on the individual child. Most importantly, I believe in 'back to basics', which is outdoor space, smiles and laughter and Kids@Play provides just that -"What every city child needs!"

Description
Kids@Play is a playgroup, pre-school (and holiday care program) where the aim is for children to learn through play experiences enhancing the development of the whole, individual child. We provide a range of activities with an emphasis on perceptual development. A large portion of our focus is on music and movement for the promotion of physical, social, emotional, intellectual and language development of each child, within the context of a warm, caring environment. It is recognized that individual children have their own pattern of development and therefore experiences are prepared appropriately and in line with their specific needs.
