Meet the Team!
Heather Weitz
Director & Owner
I took the leap of Faith in 2017 and decided to resign as a full time Grade R Teacher at a special needs school and open my own Day Care.This was my 5 year goal after graduating as an ECD Practioner in 2013.I later on completed my studies and hold a Bachelors degree in Foundation phase Education. It has not been an easy road,But it has been worth it!We survived a pandemic and today we are proud to say that Kidz Castle is home to happy, beautiful and intelligent children.
We hope to be around for many more years as we continue to provide a home away from home experience for the children in our Comunity and surrounding area's of Gqeberha.
