Goodstart Early Learning Ocean Reef

I began my early childhood education and care career in 2010 and started working with Goodstart Early Learning in 2018. I hold a Diploma of Children’s Services and have worked in the early childhood education industry for the last 12 years, where I started as a trainee educator. From there, I obtained my diploma and spent six years as a lead educator. In the last six years, I worked as an educational leader and other management roles.

My passion for children has led me to a career in the early years as I aim to assist every child in their life journey by taking the time to get to know each child’s strengths, needs and wants. I believe doing this helps to create strong bonds between myself and the children. I believe in embracing the uniqueness of every child and providing an inclusive care environment.

By creating an inclusive environment, each child can create a sense of belonging. By achieving this, development is enhanced, and we can help create a strong foundation for lifelong learning.

I have learnt and maintained a strong belief in children learning through play. When children are provided with opportunities within their own interests and in a manner where they are comfortable and safe and without the fear of failing enables the most amazing learning to occur.

As an educator, I respect and welcome all contributions from children, families, and community members to be introduced into our curriculums and play.

I understand that starting at a new centre can be overwhelming and that is why from the very first enquiry, we make sure that we address all your questions. We walk families through all the forms and administration that need to be done, this includes enrolment forms, childcare subsidy, government caps, centre schedules, our centre menu and more.

At Goodstart Early Learning Ocean Reef, we have educators who are committed, compassionate, passionate, and honest. We look forward to welcoming you to our Goodstart Ocean Reef family.
