Nihao!

My name is Tanya. I am a passionate Early Childhood educator and experienced Team Leader and supervisor.

I'm now taking the next step to create a high-quality learning environment at Little Wonders Glendowie.

I bring strong leadership, practical teaching experience, and a deep understanding of Te Whāriki. I am confident in leading teams, mentoring teachers, and supporting smooth centre operations.

 I am committed to building strong relationships with tamariki, whānau, and colleagues, and fostering a positive, collaborative team culture.

Our Centre
Open Close

At Little Wonders Glendowie, we focus on love (aroha), respect, and independence values that guide us in helping children thrive socially, emotionally, and academically. Inspired by Te Whāriki, our approach celebrates each child's unique potential in a safe, inclusive, and nurturing environment.

Our centre features spacious, purpose-built indoor and outdoor areas, including sheltered play spaces for all weather, a vibrant vegetable garden, and a wide range of equipment to support motor skill development. We provide delicious, nutritious meals throughout the day and offer flexible hours to support modern family life.

Children are grouped by age to support their development, with engaging activities tailored to their interests and learning stages. From sensory play for babies to creative exploration and school-readiness programmes for preschoolers, we support every stage of growth with care and purpose.

Local care, supported by a bigger team

Our centre is proudly part of Evolve Education Group, giving us the strength and support of a wider network, with access to expertise and resources that help our centre, kaiako and tamariki thrive. 

That means our kaiako can focus on what matters most: building strong relationships with whānau, creating wonderful learning environments and helping every child feel safe, confident and ready to explore their world.

For whānau, it means enjoying all the warmth, connections and care of their local centre, with the added peace of mind knowing there's a whole group working to support quality early learning for your little one.

So, whether your whānau chooses Active Explorers, Lollipops, Learning Adventures or one of Evolve’s other brands, you’ll find a centre with its own unique character and a team dedicated to helping your child thrive.
