Centre Manager - Geelong World of Learning

“We always respect and nurture the uniqueness and potential of each child.” 

I began my career in early childhood education and care in 2005 and started working at Geelong World of Learning in 2021. I hold an Advanced Diploma in Children’s Services and I have spent the last 9 years in Early Education management positions.

In my role as Centre Manager, I enjoy empowering the educators to be the best they can be and to provide amazing care and learning opportunities for our little people and their families. I believe the early childhood industry is an exciting, challenging and important role. It is very rewarding to be part of creating a foundation and shaping the children’s lives.

Here at Geelong World of Learning we have a long-serving, multicultural team members who reflect our local community. The teachers at Geelong World of Learning and I have a vision and aim of creating a place for children to live, learn and grow. We respect and nurture the uniqueness and potential of each child and actively promote the early childhood years as a time for discovery, exploration and the development of lifelong learning skills. We provide an environment that is safe, secure and embraces the children’s sense of belonging. Many of the team have been with the centre for years. It’s the sort of centre where everyone knows all the children, no matter which room they are in. We are such a close-knit team it feels like one big family.

I enjoy forming close relationships with families and believe that it is really important that we as educators work in partnership with families to ensure that each child develops to their full potential.
