when you need ideas, guidance, and reassurance
You’re passionate about helping children connect with nature, but between packed schedules, curriculum demands, and growing expectations, it can feel almost impossible to bring those meaningful outdoor experiences to life.
Like so many early childhood and primary/elementary school educators, you’re juggling a thousand responsibilities, often working late to plan and prepare, while trying to keep up with documentation, answer parent questions, and meet everyone’s needs except your own.
And when it comes to finding support or fresh, practical ideas that actually fit your reality, it can feel hard to know where to start or how to adapt them to suit your children and your unique setting.

"Fabulous ideas for families and educators!"
Tania, I LOVE learning from you about this important topic! I was getting goosebumps thinking about how helpful and inspiring your ideas are in supporting families in getting outside. I can't wait to share it with Nature Nuts families!

"I have already shared these ideas with my team at our educational leaders meeting and they loved them!"
This was definitely one of the most important PD's that I have done in my life because we were very active and not just sitting and listening. The day actually took me to my childhood and was thinking about children these days. I have already shared it with my team members at our educational leaders meeting and they loved the resources and ideas. I have started doing lots of things with our kinder children and at this stage I see myself as a researcher. Once again thank you so much to you and your team.

"Inspires my teaching practice and fills my bucket"
There are certain professionals who I like to keep in regular contact with because they inspire my teaching practice and fill my bucket. Tania is one of those people, and I find I have had such amazing success implementing what I learn from her. I can barely contain my excitement and want to share it with everyone!

What makes us different
At Nurture in Nature we know that you want to continually grow on your nature-inspired teaching and learning journey.
To help you do that you need resources and ideas that you can easily embed into your programming as you support children in their learning and development, and you need experienced mentors who will support you as well.
The problem is you often feel over-stretched, under-resourced, overwhelmed and unsupported, which makes you feel stuck and frustrated.
You want easy access to relevant, relatable professional development that you can't wait to put into practice, and resources that you'll actually use more than once (or once a year).
And you yearn for a like-minded community to share ideas with and to help you work through challenges that come up. A community of nature-inspired educators who fill your cup with positive energy and your mind with intentional, implementable ideas.
What would be possible for you if you had trusted mentors, PD that inspires and excites you, high-quality resources to empower you, and a 'village' that supports you?
And what if you could find ALL of those things in one place?
At Nurture in Nature we will work with you and walk alongside you, to inspire you, empower you and get you really excited about playing, learning and exploring in and with nature with children.
And we'll connect you with a likeminded community to help further inspire and support you every step of the way.
Here's how we can help you...
In addition to the programs and resources that you can choose from above, we also offer customisable programs and customisable professional development.
1. Let's Talk
Book a time for a chat with us and we'll take the time to learn about your needs, wants and challenges.

"Amazing resource to support nature play and a love of learning"
What an amazing resource to inspire educators, parents and carers to take up the challenge of immersing their children into the beauty of nature and storytelling.
Play Australia wants every child to play outside every day, and these resources will support children’s fascination with nature and nurture a love of learning through engaging ways to develop early literacy.
A brilliant contribution to enhance the hectic life of parents and educators today.

A Message From Tania Moloney,
Founder of Nurture in Nature
When children are given regular and meaningful opportunities to connect with the natural world - and they are supported by a passionate mentor - they learn, grow and thrive with nature by their sides and in their hearts.
I started Nurture in Nature in 2012 to help educators, parents and others like you who care deeply about kids and nature, to grow their knowledge and skills, so they feel confident and supported in their nature-inspired teaching and learning practice.
I hope you enjoy the resources, ideas, programs and activities that you'll find here.
If I can support you in any way on your nature connection journey, please get in touch.
I hope to have the opportunity to meet you in the 'real world' at one of our fab programs too!
See you outside!
