  • “I worked together with Nikki helping her to facilitate the Resilient Kids in Nature programme. Nikki was fantastic at working with the tamariki and teaching them numerous strategies to help identify and manage some of their big feelings. The feedback I received in my evaluations was all very positive and many of the tamariki have asked if they can do the programme again”
