Meet the team - Treetops Botany Town Centre

At Treetops Early Learning Centre Botany Town Centre, our teachers are more than just educators—they are dedicated guides in your child’s early learning journey. With a blend of professional expertise and genuine care, our team creates a nurturing environment where each child is valued and inspired. Our teachers bring a wealth of experience and a passion for fostering curiosity and growth, ensuring that every day is an opportunity for exploration and joy. We are committed to partnering with you to support and enrich your child’s development in every way possible.

My name is Lisa and I have been a part of the Treetops Whānau since 2008. I have had the privilege of growing with the Centre from the beginning of my Early Childhood career as a student, team member, to team leader and now Centre Manager. I have always had a passion for working with children and for being a teacher. I believe we are all learners, always improving and learning something new no matter what age we are.

My husband Dylan and children Kane and Kendall inspire me to do my best in life. Kane and Kendall have both been at Treetops since they were 6 months old and saw the centre as a home away from home. I love the family feel Treetops has and the support they give to teachers to grow from within. I aspire to lead from my heart, in order to inspire others and provide the best learning outcomes for all children.

I joined Treetops Botany in 2014 and I thoroughly enjoy spending my days at the Centre with the adorable children. My mum, Maree is the Centre Owner and I love being a part of our family business.

I am happily married to my wonderful husband Lionel and we have three beautiful children together. We live in Beachlands, right by the beach which fits in perfectly with our outdoor lifestyle!

Kia ora,

My name is Abbey and I am a fully registered kaiako, with almost a decades worth of experience teaching and growing alongside tamariki of all ages.

My passion has always been with our precious pepi; and so it has been my great joy to join the Treetops whānau as Kaitiaki (team leader) of The Nest.

Our Nest philosophy sits rights alongside my own teaching philosophy. I truly believe that our pepi are capable and curious, and with a strong bond of attachment they gain confidence to explore and make sense of their world around them.

I’m an East auckland local alongside my son and partner. I’m an avid artist in my spare time which comes through in our colourful room.

I look forward to working together with you to make your precious baby’s learning journey a positive one.

Arohanui, Abbey
