Hi I am Thea Botha

My family means the world to me, and this love for them fuels my passion. Being a mom myself, I know how important it is to have the right support when caring for young children. I’m all about creating a positive, loving and supportive environment for our children to grow in.

With an honors degree in psychology and a PGCE, I’m passionate about early childhood development. My goal is to empower nannies to be an extension of the family. I believe that when nannies feel empowered, our children thrive. I find immense joy in seeing people’s eyes light up with excitement, I hope to guide many women through new discoveries, and in supporting them as they take on their journey.
