Hi, I'm Kim!

Mum and Educator

I’m an adult education specialist by trade - but also a mother who, like many of you, had to learn everything from scratch after having my child later in life. When my son was born, I realised that despite my years of experience training adults, parenting was a whole new world. So, I enrolled in a Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care - not just to upskill professionally, but to grow as a mother who wanted to be truly present, informed and supportive.Like many modern parents, I strive to practice conscious parenting. But let’s be honest - it’s incredibly hard when your main job is... well, your job. That’s why I’ve redirected my life and career to support other families like mine. I want to offer a safe, warm and developmentally rich environment for children while their parents work hard to provide.At Safe Haven, I focus on what I believe truly matters:- STEM learning and foundation skills that build lifelong capabilities
- Reading readiness, so children aren’t starting school already behind
- Workplace and life skills that foster independence and confidence
- Emergency preparedness and emotional self-regulation, including breathwork and mindfulnessAs a qualified Trainer and Assessor, I deliver Certificate I and II in Workplace Skills - and yes, even children as young as 8 can start to grasp and apply these concepts when taught in an engaging, age-appropriate way.But my story isn’t just professional - it’s deeply personal. I grew up as a refugee child. My parents, with no English and no access to formal childcare, worked long hours in sewing factories. I often slept in cardboard boxes under piles of fabric. It was far from ideal, but they did what they had to do.Today, I want to be the safe haven that families like mine never had - a place where children are not just supervised, but supported, nurtured and truly seen.Your work matters.
And so does your child’s wellbeing, growth and joy.Let’s raise capable, kind, and confident young people - together.
