Lexi Davey

New to Christchurch with two kids and a dog, founder of nook, Lexi, has been hunting for family-friendly activities and unique things to do in the city since moving from Hong Kong in 2022. Finding herself endlessly Googling the same old articles, only to come up empty-handed, Lexi wanted to create a platform where parents across New Zealand could scroll with their morning coffee and be inspired to get out and explore (toddlers in tow).
