Childcare Available

Maree from Nawton

HišŸ‘‹. I am a home-based educator based in the Nawton area with a space for a full time or part-time child close to or over 2 years old.
I have 25 years of experience as an educator and I have a level 4 childcare qualification, an up to date first aid certificate and I am police checked.
I work through Kids At Home so you can access childcare subsidies and the 20 ECE hours for 3+ year olds. I take the children out to Playgroup and KAH Gym sessions as well as extra excursions to parks and going on nature walks.
I provide a nurturing home away from home environment and I encourage and support children's learning and development through playbased learning opportunities.

Poll: šŸ¤– What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: thereā€™s no such thing as a ā€œsafeā€ job anymore šŸ›ŸšŸ˜‘

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.

But whether Hamilton Eastā€™s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton Westā€™s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.

Are you a Te Huia fan? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
