  • Tara-Ann van Schalkwyk

    I am 23 years of age my name is Tara-Ann van Schalkwyk. I have worked with children for the last seven years.

    I started at Sonia's Teddy Bear's Picnic on the 5 January 2009. I am qualified to work with children from birth to Grade R and have the papers to prove it. I take Grade 0/R at this establishment from 08-12 o'clock. The afternoons I help with the aftercare to do homework. They range from Grade 1 - Grade 6.

    My favourite pass time is interacting with the children.

  • Bronwyn Bilton

    My name is Bronwyn Bilton and I am 19 years of age. I am currently studying an Early Childhood Development course with Intec and am gaining my practical experience at Teddy Bear's Picnic.

    I take the Group called the Dolphins. Their ages range from 18 months to 2 years. My hope is to make my little children laugh and enjoy every day that they can as little ones. Everyday is filled with giggles and laughter from the staff and the children and so they make everyday happy and fun.

  • Sonia Swinton

    I'm the proprietor of Teddy Bear's Picnic which has been operating for the last 7 years.

    The group that I look after are called the Little Fish where I personally take care of all the tiny babies from birth up till the age of 8 months. I have loved children all my life and want to give them a good foundation, so starting at the beginning of their lives is where I like to be. In my possession I have a certificate of Child Care and First Aid. Children are special gifts from God and I hope that I can just be an extension of God's love for them.
