My favourite experience with the children would have to be watching their delight in growing their own food patch – growing them from seeds, planting them, watering them and finally picking them to use in their cooking, making all sorts of wonderful concoctions to taste and sharing them with me.

My strongest values are to be respectful, warm, supportive, accessible, caring,  patient and to be a good listener.

Q: Favourite experience with children in your care? My favourite experience is learning right alongside with the children and families. I love watching children have positive experiences while learning, exploring and engaging in their world around them. Children help me see things from a whole new perspective; I can teach, support and help them learn, but they do the same for me I AM ALWAYS LEARNING TOO.

Q: Your strongest values as an early childhood educator? Being able to share their learning journeys with them and their families from young babies, transitioning into school and beyond. Finding ways to help nurture the children communicate and share with the families, learning their culture, sharing their life experiences and helping them working towards their goals. ITS VERY REWARDING BELONGING, BEING AND BECOMING IN FAMILY DAY CARE.
