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 Radio Podcast, our immersive Campference Teacher Nature Conference, and our amazing Treehouse Educators community, I've empowered 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, more easily, more often and with less overwhelm. Because when we work together, our ripples reach further than any of us could on our own. 

I can't wait to connect and support you in bringing nature's wisdom into your children's social and emotional world through this course. 

See you outside - and inside the Strong Foundations Course!

Tania
