Ari is an amazing educator with a world of experience, my son was just under 2 and half yrs old when started with Ari a year ago, he was a socially shy and quiet little boy, lacking in confidence around other kids and new people, he didnt like to join in with activities, he had a speech delay and struggled to play amongst other kids, within 6 months my sons speech has improved immensely and is now not considered to have any speech delay, he now plays with other kids without being anxious and interacts in group activities, he dances around when music is playing when previously he would just stand and watch other dance, he has so much confidence since being at Nature play, he has really come out of his shell which is the most exciting and heartwarming thing for a mother to see, he aslo loves counting and saying his colours. Ari has supported my son from day one, she has customised activities to help him be part of the group, Ari followed my sons lead and has given him the resources and support he needed to succeed and continues to do so, my son is so excited each day I drop him off, he comes home a very happy and content little boy. Ari has always been great at communicating changes at her day care or suggestions that may help my child over come certain struggles, I am always told when my son achieves something significant or if theres something that he needs to work on, which I really appreciate, she has always been easy to converse with and I have never felt pressured or dictated to about my parenting. I highly recommend Nature Play family day care 🌻
