Jodie Hannaford
Centre Director
Hi my name is Jodie Hannaford and I your new Centre Director at Goodstart Plympton. My passion for working with children began when I was in high school and did a work placement in a child care centre. After leaving school, I completed my Certificate III before moving on to complete my Diploma in Children’s Services. My child care career began in 1998 where I was an assistant in a Nursery Room before becoming the Team Leader. I was then fortunate enough to work my way up to an Assistant Director before being offered a Director’s Position within another centre.
I believe that all children are unique and should be respected, and I thoroughly enjoy watching them grow and develop into independent little people. I'm very passionate about delivering high quality care to all families and children within my centre. I want all children to know that they are successful, capable and confident learners and that they are all unique. I want to offer them a place where they are comfortable and confident to engage in learning relationships with their educators and peers. I will endeavour to help them understand they have the right to belong and contribute to many communities and groups and they are part of the greater world - and in so have shared responsibility for the natural and built environments.
I am an advocate for professional development for myself and all educators, as I believe this only continues to build strong and passionate professional educators who actively implement, promote and advocate for high quality outcomes for all children and families.
When working with families I want them to understand that they are and always will be the most important part of their child’s life and education and as a director believe that they are a fundamental part of our role in teaching. In this I ask families to contribute to their child’s learning in the Centre through parent involvement and input. I understand that time can be an issue and always aim to make this easy for the parents and families by adapting communication styles to best suit the individual family needs. I look forward to meeting you and your family and discussing how we can support your child to develop and reach their full potential.
