About Nest Consulting
Nest Consulting is grounded in a commitment to hauora – the holistic wellbeing of individuals, whānau, and communities. We walk alongside individuals, parents, professionals, tamariki and rangatahi with aroha and respect, believing strong futures are built through mātauranga (education), kōrero (conversation), and manaaki (support).
We envision a world where everyone has a strong sense of tūrangawaewae – a place to stand – where they feel safe, heard, valued, and equipped with the tools to thrive. When people are informed, connected, and empowered, our collective wellbeing is strengthened.
Established in 2008 by Robyn Fausett, Nest Consulting is a nationally operating social enterprise delivering innovative, accessible, and engaging programmes across Aotearoa. We hold multiple contracts across the health and wellbeing sector and are a trusted provider of education, facilitation, and advisory services.
Our work is supported by strong community connections and a network of experienced facilitators and educators committed to inclusive, culturally responsive practice.
