About Us
A Nurturing & Caring Environment For Your Child
At Nature’s House, we believe that to a child, everything is a wonder. Curiosity is at the heart of learning, and young minds naturally absorb the world around them as they explore and make sense of their environment.
Our mission is to provide an exceptional early learning experience in a thoughtfully prepared and enriched setting, guided by highly trained and experienced educators. We cultivate critical thinking and encourage imaginative play, following each child’s natural interests to inspire a love for discovery.
Every activity is carefully designed to support the emotional, intellectual, and physical development of our children. Through hands-on learning, engaging experiences, and a nurturing atmosphere, we equip them with the tools and confidence needed to thrive—while ensuring they have fun along the way!
At Nature’s House Preschool, we build on each child’s strengths and interests, fostering independence and exploration while laying a solid foundation for lifelong learning.
Our comprehensive curriculum includes:
✔ Language and literacy development
✔ A strong mathematical foundation
✔ Social-emotional growth
✔ Creative expression
Join us in providing your child with a warm, inspiring, and enriching early learning experience!

Tanya Jordaan
After earning a B.A. in Fine Arts from the University of Cape Town, my career began in community development, focusing on arts, culture, and heritage. However, becoming a mother to two beautiful girls sparked a deep passion for Early Childhood Development (ECD), leading me to shift my focus to education.
In 2016, I embarked on my journey as an ECD practitioner at Stepping Stones Montessori School, working with children aged 3 to 6 years. Over time, I advanced to the role of Head of Preschool, further refining my expertise in child-led learning and development.
With a strong foundation as a qualified foundation phase teacher, I always envisioned creating a nurturing environment for toddlers aged 18 months to 3 years—a place where young children could explore, learn, and thrive. Today, that dream has become a reality with Nature’s House Preschool.
I firmly believe that early childhood is where the magic happens—a critical stage in laying the foundation for a lifetime of learning. Children learn best through sensory experiences, art, play, and exploration, and I am passionate about providing an environment where they have the freedom to discover, create, and find magic in the world around them.

Phumla has been like a second mother to my own two daughters, and her gentle, compassionate approach creates a comforting and supportive environment for young children.
