For relocating families, by relocated families
About As The Kiwi Flies
Kia ora! I'm Nicki!
I set up As The Kiwi Flies to support families just like yours.
In 2022, I made the move from the UK to Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, never having even visited New Zealand before.
Relocating is a huge step and I know what it feels like to plan a big move while juggling the unknowns of a new country, so I've created a corner of the internet especially for people moving to, and living in, Aotearoa New Zealand.
Why work with me?
As The Kiwi Flies offers practical support searching for rental homes in Auckland and across the Upper North Island - the service is professional and comprehensive, but never stuffy or corporate. We'll communicate via messaging not email, that way you have a direct line to the answers you need as and when you need them.
Finding a home for you is not just a tick-box exercise for me - my service comes with tailored relocation guidance, and the kind of honest, reassuring support that clients often describe as feeling like having a friend on the ground.
I take care of viewings, liaise directly with agents, provide detailed property feedback, and help strengthen applications to give you the best chance of being accepted for a rental you love. Working with me means you have someone in NZ who listens, understands where you are in your journey, and delivers support that feels personal, responsive and reassuring.
I'm often lucky enough to be the one of the first people to welcome you to Aotearoa - that's an unbelievable privilege I never take for granted. If this sounds like the kind of support you'd love, please feel free to drop me a message in the chat box below and tell me all about your move.
