Kia Ora my name is Leah Whiteoak,

I’m very excited to be able to get to know you and your tamariki. I live locally in Wellsford and love being able to live and work in the local community. I am a mother to two beautiful girls aged 10 years and 2 year old. I have experience working with children of all ages and can’t wait to extend this experience whilst working alongside your tamariki.

My personal teaching philosophy is to uphold children’s mana (pride, confidence and integrity) by recognising and responding to each child’s holistic development in ways which are individually empowering.

Nga mihi nui Leah
