Our littlest people need your help. Poverty doesn’t start at 5, but until now there’s been no nationwide programme to help preschoolers who are hungry and cold.
KidsCan is changing that. They’re delivering raincoats, shoes and five fresh meals a week to 25 early childhood centres. Attendance is up, and the children are happier and more settled.
"Everyone has the same meal so children don't feel like they have less," Manaia View Kindergarten teacher Kathy Belz says. "It's upholding everyone's mana.”
40 more centres are waiting for help. KidsCan, Stuff and Neighbourly have partnered up to raise enough money to support 1000 more children - and we need 400 more generous Kiwis to hold little hands. To support a child, sign up at KidsCan.org.nz

These days however they are not so natural :( with most being created with a complex blend of petroleum derived chemicals.
Many conventional perfumes contain over a dozen chemicals that do not have to be disclosed on the label.
Among them are chemicals associated with hormone disruption and allergic reactions, and many substances that have not been assessed for safety in personal care products.
Scary huh!
Especially when you think this is what you every day may be putting on your skin, every day what you are breathing in and every day what your family and kids are breathing in.
Again scary!
So why not make your own?
Come along to my class and learn how super simple it is to use doTERRA essential oils to blend up your own signature scent that is not only 100% natural, it can also do positive things for your emotions, your hormones and your health - with 0% side effects.
Win. Win. Win.
The class is $30 and you will learn how to choose essential oils that complement each other to make three different personalized perfume blends to take home and try out for yourself.
Next class is Friday 19 April at 10am -12pm (Easter Friday).
Classes are small, so message me to book your seat ASAP.
And if you can't make it this time, message me and we can arrange another class time or gather a group of friends and I can come to you.

Having compassion and understanding helps us to see the need. Seeing the need is changing your frame of reference so you realize that these aberrant behaviors are survival strategies rather than willful disobedience. If you look at your child’s behavior through the lens of his history, his actions make perfect sense. Understanding attachment and any deficits in early development also helps us to see the need behind behavior.” – Dr. David Cross

Why do you need a custom fitted mouthguard from Bachmann Orthodontics?
.
Playing contact sports without a mouth guard has been likened to rally driving without a seat belt! A simple injury can leave you with a gap in your smile. A mouthguard is a protective device that prevents injury to the teeth, lips and gums.
.
But not all mouthguards are created equal, and a store bought mouthguard will never give you the protection of a custom designed mouthguard.
.
Why is a custom mouth guard necessary?
Store bought mouthguards don’t encase the teeth or cover the back molars. They tend not to fit very well, lose their shape, fall out in the middle of activity, and often have to be replaced. They can also make breathing and talking difficult, and feel bulky in the mouth.
.
A properly fitted mouthguard is especially important for people who wear braces or have fixed bridge work. A blow to the face could damage the brackets or other fixed orthodontic equipment. A mouthguard also provides a barrier between the braces and your cheek or lips, limiting the risk of soft tissue injuries.
.
Bachmann Orthodontics in Auckland create the perfect fitting mouthguard that allows for speaking and doesn’t limit breathing. Our custom made mouthguards will stay firmly in place during action and help protect your teeth from injury.
.
If you or your child play contact sport, make a custom fitted mouthguard part of your team uniform.
