Nature Love Family is founded by Vinnie Mahler and the intention behind Nature Love Family is to offer a service for children to get in-line with Nature. Mother Earth is our biggest teacher and healer of all, and she believe that we learn better, we feel better, and thrive better, des more time we spend in Nature.

Further intentions for Nature Love Family are:

To support children’s Emotional, Social, Spiritual and Physical Development.

To support children know they are loved and supported, ALWAYS.

We do this by supplying an outdoor environment that in itself is supportive, uplifting and healing on more levels than our eye can see. We don’t focus on development, because we know when we play and have fun, the development happens automatic in a natural way. In our experience, we can control and plan development, yet each child has each their own journey and whatever that happens for them is perfect.

Our job at Nature Love Family is to create an environment that challenge the children’s development with age-appropriate settings, yet keep the children safe without wrapping them in cotton.

Our job at Nature Love Family is to hold space for the children to go through the different stages of their development.

Our job as Nature Love Family’s educator is to guide, challenge and support children as well as being a positive role model to learn and grow holistically. “Tell me and I will forget, Teach me and I will remember, Show me and I will learn” ~ Benjamin Franklin

Our pride is that we enjoy the nature all day long both as our facilities and resources. Where nature do not/cannot supply, the community supply. This is a part of our intention by using the permaculture approach of Earth Care, People Care and Fair Share.

This is not a daycare service, this is a private service that think outside the box, in more than one way!

We value BEING, being with ourselves, being with each other and being in nature. We value Community. Community is meeting people, helping, and interacting wherever we can. We value nature and sustainability and believe that our health is enhanced by the amount of time we spend outdoor and in nature. We see it as our responsibility that the children know of their influence on the environment and nature around them.

We believe we thrive better in nature with the connection with Mother Earth. The fresh air calms us and keeps us open for learning.

We believe children are born with a story, with skills and gifts and that they can be our greatest teachers, when we allow them.

We believe the world is a better place when we allow the children to be children and let them guide us through their needs and interests.

We feel the parents and families are the most important people in a child’s life. We value them, their insights, and our partnerships.

We feel it is our duty to show our respect for the Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islander people, past present and future as well as all cultures. It is on Vinnie’s heart for the children to embed the respect for the original people of the land they walk on as well as respecting ALL.
