We are pleased to announce our new training partners ZimbOriginal with whom we have a shared dream to see children being proud of their heritage, cultural diversity and language. Mastery of our African etiquette “tsika dzedu” alongside the Western etiquette which they learn in separate workshops gives your child a competitive advantage.

Tsika Dzedu class of 2025.

Songs and dance, games, greetings, tribes and clans, food and drinks, culminating in the chores challenge made this an exceptional training day.

Etiquette begins in your own social context - it is only when you value and appreciate your own cultural values and manners (Tsika dzedu) that you appreciate and understand other forms of etiquette. It is not a case of “either, or” but a case of “and, with” . Mastering Tsika dzedu with Eurocentric etiquette and Asian etiquette makes for a well rounded global citizen.

Our ever-popular children’s cultural etiquette workshop is open for registration.

We believe that etiquette begins in your cultural context. Every culture has good etiquette.

“Tsika Dzedu Kids Workshop* is the perfect way to prepare your children with fun, interactive learning alongside their peers. In this course, they will explore:

- Greetings and gestures for different settings
- Making conversation and showing honour and respect
- Maintaining boundaries
- Being helpful with chores

- Enjoying traditional foods
- Learning about tribes, clans, and totems

Your image does not end at appearance, behaviour and communication. It extends to your home. The aesthetics of your house, the service and hospitality of your staff and children reflects your values and self-image.

As we enter the festive season where we will be hosting family, friends and business associates what better time to polish up on your hosting skills.

Doing what we do best.

Professional Presence team training the rising stars of Best Beginnings Nursery school at the Hyatt Harare. It’s never too early to teach good grooming and hygiene, good manners and behaviour.

On 27 September, we hosted our very first Au Pair Open Day Training in Belgravia, Harare. The day was filled with energy and excitement as participants gathered to learn more about this new and inspiring career path.

Mrs. Bellona Chopera, Founder of Professional Presence, opened the program by introducing the Au Pair Training initiative and sharing insights on service ethics.

Lorraine Shaw, owner of Purple Turtle nursery school, Springboard - learning for Life, and TEDx speaker, gave a practical and heartfelt presentation on “A Day in the Life of an Au Pair” and “Parents’ Expectation”.

Kitumetsi Majaga from ER24-7, spoke about the importance of first aid and led a practical class activity.

Closing the day, Lorna Ndlovu from Professional Presence guided participants through topics on child safeguarding, creative play, and homework supervision.

The event was vibrant, informative, and well-received, marking the official launch of Professional Presence’s Au Pair Training Program in Zimbabwe.
