A wonderful resource to help us share our passion for stories with the children we work with. The Nature Storytelling Playbook is respectful to reflect diversity within our community. A great companion to support working within the early years learning frameworks.

Hi! I'm Tania Moloney.
Since founding Nurture in Nature in 2012, I've been helping educators and parents bring the power of nature into children's worlds.
From the places I visit in my Nature Bus mobile classroom in Australia, to early childhood settings, schools, homes and conferences worldwide, I've seen firsthand how nature transforms the way children learn and grow.
Through my award-winning children's book, 'Nature Ninja Saves the Natural World', the Nurture in Nature Podcast, our immersive Campference Teacher Nature Conference, Campference: Where Nature Meets Story Online Summit, and our amazing Treehouse Educators Professional Learning Community, I've empowered educators and others to embrace nature as a powerful ally in helping children thrive - socially, emotionally, physically, mentally and in their learning too.
I believe connecting kids with nature isn't just about getting outdoors. It's about helping them grow into emotionally strong, resilient young humans who understand and care for themselves, others, and our natural world.
My mission is simple: to help you grow your knowledge, skills and confidence to open the door to nature-inspired learning opportunities, more easily, more often and with less overwhelm.
Because when we work together, our ripples of impact reach further than any of us could on our own.
I can't wait to connect and support you in bringing nature into your stories and your stories into nature through this Playbook!
See you outside!
Tania
