Our team includes a group of dynamic trainers and service driven placement agents – all mothers themselves that believe in empowering our learners mainly domestic workers and nannies through nanny training. Our workshops, like First Aid and CPR,are designed to enable nannies to use the knowledge and skills that they have learnt and apply it within their employer’s home as well as in their community and their own families.
THE TEAM
Karin Thomsen is a co founder and first aid trainer. She started training nannies when she was a single mother. She hired and trained her nanny and realized the importance of trained help whilst having to work and support her family.
Over the course of six years she has trained over 1000 nannies. “I believe that we are privileged in this country to have the abundance of choice in domestic help at such a reasonable cost to the family”
Karin is an avid trainer with a 15 year background in marketing, teaching and corporate facilitation as well as domestic training and placements. She has two young children.
Christine Rebe is also a co founder, trainer and super mom of two energetic children. She comes with plenty of patience and an abundance of knowledge concerning babies and children. Having facilitated autistic kids, reared a colicky baby for 8 months and a proprioceptive sensory child, she understands the complexities when is comes to rearing difficult children and young babies. She believes in having a good support system and her nanny/domestic worker has filled that gap.
Our First Aid trainers are mothers and have worked in the emergency medical services for several years. They are registered with the Health Professions Council of South Africa as well as the Resuscitation Council of Southern Africa. The CPR training module is endorsed by the American Heart Association.
We train nannies and parents. We choose our trainers carefully based on their experience and training abilities. Our practical approach to First Aid and CPR has been a great source of inspiration for all our nannies and domestic workers that we have trained.
