The Heart School/The HeART of Home-i-tising

The HeART of Home-i-tising

In this one-hour virtual gathering, Kimberley sets out what home means to a very young child, and shares genuine ways of offering a homely, nurturing safe haven for the children AND the adults.

Is your place WORTHY of a miracle unfolding?

"A home away from home". 
It's a description of ECE settings that is bandied about so often that its true meaning tends to be overlooked.  It is not enough to use the phrase as a selling point for parents.  We need to think about what home means to a very young child and find genuine ways of offering a homely, nurturing safe haven. 

What does a 'home away from home' look and feel like?

Is your place truly a "home away from home"?

Listen to Kimberley as she shares what a home away from home means for our children. 

Join us on a tour and explore ways to furnish your setting with heart furniture.

Many children spend more waking hours with us at their ‘early childhood’ place than their own home! They are living their days in our services.

The biggest question we should be asking ourselves as we look around our space is this: “What does being here each day do for the soul of a child”? Home-i-tising is the epitome of heartfulness. It is the perfect 'how' of offering an environment that is from the heart, for the heart and full of heart.
