We partner with you to provide a safe, quality, family-centred learning environment where every child is respected and nurtured. We continually develop our skills and explore new ways to enrich your child’s early learning experience.
Indoor and outdoor play based experiences are an integral part of our program. Educators plan a diverse range of experiences to create opportunities for your child in both structured and spontaneous play.
Our programs are inspired by the wisdom and teachings of early childhood theorists and the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), and aim to develop children’s emotional, social and cognitive intelligence.
The Kindergarten curriculum continues to emphasise play based learning, however offers additional intentional learning times where the focus is on literacy and numeracy, socialisation, self-regulation and independence.
What led you to a career in the childcare industry?
I was fortunate enough to have a memorable experience throughout my early Childhood based on my teachers to which I remember to this day. I wanted to ensure children had those same memories to grow up with.
What are your favourite memories within the workspace?
Being a part of a new centre and seeing it’s growth each week. When children are starting in our centre for the first time we experience their journey with them.
What are you passionate about?
I am passionate about creating a safe and nurturing environment to support our team of caring educators as they inspire children through their learning journey.
What type of leadership style do you have?
The more people you have in your circle the more you can achieve. I want to give my team as much opportunity as possible to have growth within themselves and in their career.
