Our Team Kidz Biz Ed

Wendy Hill- Director, Principal Consultant/Educator of Kidz Biz Education
- Bachelor of Education
- Registered Enrolled Nurse

Wendy HillWendy is founder, principal consultant and educator of Kidz Biz Education. A qualified teacher and  nurse, Wendy has generated widespread interest and enthusiasm among students and the teaching fraternity with her affable and engaging teaching style.

Her teaching particularly focuses on primary and middle year students due to the increasing difficulties they face with puberty (both physical and on an emotional level), their vulnerability to peer group, media and social pressure and the mounting complexities associated with liberal attitudes within our society.

Wendy has over 20 years of educating experience including as a classroom teacher with DECD, as well as a health educator with Family Life SA. During this time she developed and delivered educational courses to state/private primary and secondary schools within South Australia’s metropolitan, regional and outback areas.

Drawing upon her own household experiences with children and teenagers, her familiarity with inadequate and inconsistent levels of personal and social development education across some public and private schools, along with an astute knowledge and awareness of emerging teenage issues and trends, Wendy has developed a strong passion, commitment and advocacy to propagating knowledge on young people’s safety and well being.

With her originative tutoring techniques and her ability to connect with young minds, Wendy found her niche in contemporary and advanced personal and social development education.  With a constant demand for her services and the need by primary and middle schools to address issues like cyber-bulling/safety, "sexting", peer pressure, self-esteem/body image, drugs and binge-drinking, Wendy was inspired to establish Kidz Biz Ed towards the end of 2008.

With the same level of unwavering enthusiasm as her teaching, Wendy has skillfully guided her business to a steady and prosperous growth, firmly positioning Kidz Biz Ed as a leading provider of quality and affordable standard and custom-tailored educational courses, including consultancy and referral services to schools and the media industry.

In addition to her teaching and family commitments, Wendy’s busy work schedule includes working as an operating theatre nurse with two large private hospitals. With over 30-years experience in all aspects of nursing, including paediatric nursing, her knowledge and experience is extensive and complements her teaching credentials in personal development and sexuality.

With her astute knowledge and experience of  raising three children on her own, due to their father's untimely death, Julie is empathic with the difficulties which many parents face and the affects of outside influences.

Julie has over 30 years of educating experience including classroom teaching, managing a number of school sports teams, coaching and umpiring, assisting on school camps and chairing on various school committees. She has also had a research paper on "Girls In Education" published by DECD.
