Renata is a children’s musician and storyteller, starting her business in 2002.  Before professional performing Renata began working with children both overseas and in Australia in 1991.  Over 10 of those years were spent in the relief industry where she experienced a wide variety of teaching styles and creative ideas for children’s programs.
Renata now travels all over Australia to speak and present at conferences and delivers in-services with CD’s, DVD's and books to purchase to compliment these workshops.

Renata has entertained and inspired at our services for the past two years.  In particular the staff training not only has acted as a wonderful stimulus for our practice but also as a team building exercise…with lots of laughter

.Louise Jackson, Operations Manager, Lady Gowrie Centres

Renata’s in-services are a great opportunity to learn some new and easy ideas for everyday interactions.  They are designed to boost the confidence of staff in the area of the creative arts and to excite programs for young children.  Staff will walk away inspired with new musical ideas, storytelling techniques or multicultural ideas, tools essential to help children have fun while learning.

Renata takes time to put all participants at ease and involves them in a program designed to educate and inspire on the importance of music and story telling in a child’s development. Participants are challenged to take themselves out of their comfort zone and to try something different. At the end of the session, participants leave with a new confidence and are armed with techniques to help them in their work with children.
