Founder, homeschool mentor & Kozi Kidz head honcho

Tutor01

Mama O

Hey, it's Mama O! I'm the proud head-honcho of KoziKidz Tutoring, a home-grown, anti-establishment haven where kidz can come and thrive. As a single mom, I knew I wanted to empower young minds by creating a cozy environment where they feel safe to learn and grow. My transport business, KoziKidz, shares the same vibe - "not your average kidz" isn't just a slogan, it's a mantra! Expanding into tutoring felt like a natural fit, and I'm loving every minute of it. In fact, my love for education was born out of necessity - I homeschooled my now 22-year-old son for the first half of his primary education. He's now a star tutor (and occasional critic) - let's just say he's earned the right to give me a hard time, having been put through his paces since he was 15! Through my entrepreneurial journey - after being a hardcore corporate girly - it has been proof that with determination and passion, anything is possible. When I'm not running the show, you can find me spreading the word and teaching people about the Bible for free - it's my true calling. Come join the KoziKidz fam, and let's do this!
