The Little Mixing Bowl was created from a love of both cooking and working with children.

As a local Geelong mum of two young children, I wanted to return to work while still spending as much time as possible at home with my own little ones. With over 10 years of experience working with children and qualifications in Early Childhood Education, creating children’s cooking classes felt like the perfect way to combine my experience with something I truly love.

Cooking has always been a passion of mine, but since having children it has become even more special. Some of my favourite moments are in the kitchen with my own kids — watching them mix, pour, experiment and explore different foods. Seeing their excitement when they create something themselves is incredibly rewarding.

The Little Mixing Bowl was created to give other children that same experience. Our classes are designed to be fun, hands-on and confidence building, allowing children to explore food, learn real kitchen skills and enjoy the pride that comes from creating something from scratch.

Through small group classes in a supportive environment, little chefs can build independence, try new things and discover just how fun cooking can be.
