I'm Emily Patterson, a mama of three with a passion for gentle and respectful parenting, and conscious, natural, child-led education. I have an extensive background working with children having been a nanny, childcare educator, early childhood teacher, and creator and facilitator of an early childhood homeschool program.​I have a Bachelor of Education in Early Childhood Studies and a Masters in Special Education but even with this knowledge my biggest lessons, knowledge and understandings have come from motherhood. Children are our greatest teachers and motherhood is a spiritual practice with lifelong opportunities to expand, grow and uncover all parts of ourselves. We reparent ourself as we practice this way of parenting with our children and embody this within our work with children. I love holding a gentle and safe space for children to truly be themselves, at their essence, and I am inspired to learn from their presence, creativity and curiosity.

I’m Gill Howarth, a Conscious Educator, an Educational Changemaker, Storyteller and Mother to 3 bright, beautiful and wild boys. With over 20 years experience working in education, studying and travelling across the world, I spent my early years immersed in a world of nature and the imagination. Days were spent mixing sand into the water, playing with the earth, asking questions, making up stories, and listening to the trees. I now find myself an advocate for nurturing these same elements in learning – for adults and children. I believe we create a strong foundation for learning (and life) via a strong connection to our inner world. I have always felt a connection to Teaching/Learning. I am a university qualified Early Childhood Educator and I also hold a Bachelor of Arts in Creative Writing and Philosophy. I have studied and practiced different forms of yoga, meditation, and mindfulness since the age of 16 and am a qualified yoga and meditation teacher. 

Hi, I'm Celeste! I am a mum of 2 and an Early Childhood Teacher. I have been very fortunate to work in progressive, alternative schools, that allowed me to share my passion for inspiring children to develop a love and appreciation for nature. Now, I am on the exciting journey of homeschooling/unschooling. I am happiest away from tech and traffic somewhere among the trees or at the beach! I am a student of and advocate for, peaceful parenting, as well as living a low tox lifestyle that is gentle on the Earth

Hi, I'm Linda, Mum to two big kids and Mimi to my gorgeous grandie, Cash. After 20 years in mainstream schooling, predominantly early childhood, I'm excited to be unschooling myself and getting back to nature, where my heart feels most at home. My passion has always been working with children, the most important thing for me, when it comes to education is providing a loving, supportive and safe environment for children to flourish and lead their own learning journey.
