She is passionate about healthy living and eating, especially now that she has a child. Being a full time working mom she was eager to find a business where she could earn money but at the same time work from home and spend time with her child.
"Little Cooks Club was just the perfect career for me and my life stage. I absolutely love cooking, it is my way of destressing and I love experimenting with new recipes. In addition, I want to help moms, like myself, find interesting and fun ways to spend time with their children while at the same time learning new recipes that are easy and nutritious," says Deborah.
Deborah has recently moved to a beautiful new studio in Fourways.

The kitchen is my happy place, great things can come from humble ingredients - and my best part is sharing with family and friends.I am happy to say that my daughter and I enjoy spending time together in the kitchen; she loves to help me prepare meals and already has a very good understanding of what is healthy and nutritious. She attended Little Cooks Club and enjoyed it so much that it was not a hard decision to open my own franchise. I can't wait to get started.

I come from a family that has been involved in catering and hospitality for three generations. We all "talk food" both the nutritional/health side as well as the new and exciting finds we come across.
My background before travelling overseas was initially in Journalism and then Advertising and Marketing. All of these industries overlapped within the food industry as well.
I'm so excited about having the opportunity to join my passion for food, children and learning with that of Little Cooks Club. We are currently building a new kitchen studio in Midrand that will open at the beginning of August. We will be offering a full range of all Little Cooks Club classes.
I look forward to seeing you there.

I enjoy being creative with food and I love to encourage the kids to be creative, as I get immense satisfaction from watching the kids enjoy themselves while bring out their creativity, uniqueness and having fun.
I love creating a party for a child; I have been doing this for my daughter for the past 7 years and I am like a child myself when I get into it.
I look forward to a wonderful relationship with all of you.

I believe that having a healthy, well balanced lifestyle is essential – this includes good nutrition, exercise and the odd treat every now and then. It is for this reason that I'm thrilled to be a part of Little Cooks Club. I believe that the sooner we learn healthy eating habits and how to prepare good food, the better. The Little Cooks Club kitchen provides a great learning environment and a good mix of fun and facts.
I look forward to sharing my passion for good food with you!

Alberton
My name is Deirdre, better known as Dee. I am married to Gerhard, and we have two wonderful daughters. We have been residing in Alberton for the past 23 years. It has always been my dream to become a teacher. Sadly this dream never materialised. However, this changed when I discovered Little Cooks Club. I knew instantly that I had been given a second chance, not only to be able to teach children about the preparation and execution of easy, fun recipes, but also to equip them with very valuable basic life skills. I would also like to instil in them a love and passion for cooking.So... I have chosen to trade the corporate world for an apron!
I look forward to meeting all the enthusiastic little cooks in Alberton!

When I was little, I would drag our dining room table into my 'restaurant' - AKA my bedroom. I would then set the table and invite my family. I would serve supper - and then demand payment!! I have always had a passion for food and was fortunate enough to come from a family who helped instill the importance of nutrition, dining together and entertaining. I remember spending many happy hours in the kitchen with my mother and grandmother. Since graduating from Hotel School, I have worked in contract catering, coffee shop franchising and airline catering.The kitchen is my happy place, great things can come from humble ingredients - and my best part is sharing with family and friends.I am happy to say that my daughter and I enjoy spending time together in the kitchen; she loves to help me prepare meals and already has a very good understanding of what is healthy and nutritious. She attended Little Cooks Club and enjoyed it so much that it was not a hard decision to open my own franchise. I can't wait to get started.

My name is Megan Hall. Originally from the Eastern Cape, I have been living in Johannesburg with my husband, Richard, for almost 4 years. Growing up I spent many happy hours baking on the farm with my Mom. I've always loved creative activities and after brief stints in interior design and events management I decided to follow my passion for food. I completed a Patisserie Diploma in 2009 and have been making cakes for all occasions since then.I believe that having a healthy, well balanced lifestyle is essential – this includes good nutrition, exercise and the odd treat every now and then.
