We believe that the value of play is of utmost importance to children as it is their way of learning about their world.
While children play they are able to experiement with new ideas, test theories and their understanding of concepts, express their creative ability, release their emotions and share their feelings.
While engaging in play children are developing across all domains and creating the building blocks for their future.

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?
Many years ago, when I first began working in early learning it was just a job to me, however it became my career when I discovered that my true passion was to connect with the children and their families and become a part of their journey through life and have a positive impact on the way in which the children developed.
What are your favourite memories within the workspace?
The way in which I have been welcomed to this company and specifically this centre has been amazing.
Who Inspires you and why?
I am inspired by many things around me, from the way a child’s face looks when they work something out all by themselves for the first time to the reaction of an educator who witness a child reach a goal that they have been trying so hard to obtain. I am inspired my best friend who taught me to advocate for fairness, equality and social justice with love, empathy, and kindness.
What are you passionate about?
I am passionate about teaching and embedding indigenous culture within the centre and sharing my knowledge with the children, families, and educators.
What type of leadership style do you have?
I lean towards a democratic and participative style of management.
What makes your service such an amazing service?
I think it is important for the educators to know that I am here to look after them. To me they are the most important people in the centre, as they are the ones that develop deep and respectful relationships with the children and put everything that they have into their care. I see it as my job and duty to support and encourage this as much as I can. Everything else that I do would be worthless if it were not for the way in which the educators care for the children.
What are your goals for the service over the next 12 months?
In the next 12 months I would like to see a few more new faces in the team as the number of SHEL NP families grow. I would like to see my educators enjoying themselves at work whilst also knowing how truly appreciated they for what they do.
