With over 19 years of dedicated experience as a playschool franchise owner, I weave compassion and expertise into every facet of our nurturing environment, passionately cultivating young minds. My enriching journey, spanning multiple playschools and heartfelt work abroad with children on the spectrum, deeply ingrains my commitment to crafting spaces that are both supportive and stimulating.
At the core of my philosophy lies an unwavering belief in the unique potential of each child, partnering closely with our extraordinary team of educators to nurture growth enveloped in warmth and care. I am steadfastly focused on laying enduring foundations that spark lifelong learning and holistic development.
I lead my playschool franchise with pride, embodying these cherished values as I forge meaningful partnerships with families, tenderly supporting their children's precious early years

Roxanne Kotze
Head Teacher
I have been endlessly passionate about growing children's minds for as long as I can remember.
I started working with children from age 16, by babysitting. 17 years later, that fire for teaching still rages! I see no bigger honour in life than to be entrusted with someone else's child(ren) and I endeavour to give each child specifically what they need.
I am a PlaySense teacher, with many years experience teaching at various other schools, including Mindstretch preschool for children with autism. I am also a professional photographer, specialising in children's portraits. I run a children's craft workshop under the name The Crafty Fox and I am an au pair to two wonderful little girls.
I also write children's books (unpublished as of yet!) and spend a great deal of time hand making educational toys, wooden play equipment and I try to foster as much creativity in young minds as possible!
Testimonials
My daughter is an introverted child, taking long to warm up to new people but she was completely drawn to Yumna from day one and she settled quickly. I’m constantly amazed at how beautifully Yumna connects with each child in the group, each with such different needs. She’s so creative and has created such magical experiences for our children. She has also taught the children to care for each other and build strong friendship bonds. We feel extremely lucky to have had Yumna teach our daughter at such a formative stage in her development. We couldn’t imagine a better person to facilitate young learning. She is definitely a dedicated early learning professional with an incredible caring nature.
