Joanna Norris
As a dedicated early childhood educator, I have experience nurturing the social, emotional, and developmental well-being of tamariki across both ECE and hospital settings.
I have worked closely with children who have additional needs, neurodiversity, and anxiety, always adapting my approach to suit each child's individual strengths, interests, communication style, and ways of learning.
I am passionate about child-led play, responsive relationships, and creating safe, supportive environments where children can play, learn, and thrive—and I always bring a bit of fun to my work (bubbles are my superpower!).
