Our story at Learning Differently NZ

Based in Christchurch New Zealand, we create visual learning resources and offer pre-loved children's books to support early childhood educators, neurodiverse learners, and families. 

Born from a mother's journey

Learning Differently NZ began from the heart of our home in Christchurch. As a parent homeschooling two neurodiverse children, I wanted to build a small business that allowed me to support my family while creating meaningful tools for everyday learning. Every resource we make comes from real, lived experience with different learning styles.

Saving educators time and money

We design our printable materials primarily for teachers, early childhood educators, and busy parents. By focusing on essential developmental skills taught through clear visual aids, board stories, and games, we help you enrich your classroom without spending hours making materials from scratch.

Preloved Books

Our secondhand book collection features cherished classics from my own childhood alongside beloved stories that my children adore. Our goal is simple: to keep books out of landfill and place them in children’s hands, where they can be enjoyed again and again.
