Olivia Ridden

Teacher

Kia ora,

I’m Olivia, one of the Kaiako in the Nursery at Moa.

I graduated from the University of Canterbury in 2018 with a Bachelor of Teaching and Learning (ECE).

I am a passionate infant and toddler teacher and I always strive to provide high quality care ands education for our youngest learners.

My personal teaching philosophy is inspired by the RIE/Pikler and Reggio philosophies.

I am a heart-led teacher whom places great importance on building strong, trusting and reciprocal relationships with tamariki and their whānau.

In my spare time, I love to be with friends and family, getting out in nature, enjoying delicious food and travelling.
