I’ve wanted to work with young children since I was a teenager and have always been drawn to babies. I’ve been working in the early childhood education sector for ten years now and am particularly passionate about respectful practices for infants, toddlers and young children.
What do you love most about what you do?
Having that sense of responsibility for the learning of a child and knowing how privileged we are to be a part of that child’s life.
What are some of the things that set your centre apart?
Passionate staff who see every child as unique, a fantastic outdoor environment with plenty of large open space, and a curriculum that allows children to develop at their own pace and stage of development. Learning is never rushed here at Active Explorers Shakespeare Street.
What is your personal ECE philosophy?
I believe in respectful practices, calm and slow interactions in a natural and home like setting. Children learn best through unhurried routines and in an environment that promotes discovery, imagination and exposure to nature.
