Over 20 years experience of working in Early Childhood Education.
I started as a trainee at 17 in ECE and was a part of everything within the industry. I worked as a cook, room assistant, room leader, Educational leader, 2nd in charge & Director.
I also had the opportunity to work alongside HR to employ other educators and the policy writers to help implement & review policies & procedures within the service.
My family is my biggest passion. Raising a young woman in this era has been difficult to navigate especially with her disabilities. She is my biggest inspiration watching her succeed in her life has been my biggest passion, as well as watching my husband work hard for his career dreams & achieving them within 1 year of his new company.
Watching & playing sports is another big passion, I enjoy watching NRL, Netball, Ice Hockey & NFL.
I was a South Sydney representative for Touch Football during my teen years, as well as a champion Netball player.
I’m passionate about helping children grow & develop. Watching children meet their milestones & develop into young teens is something that makes me happy to be a part of.

Work
Once I find something interesting I will go out of my way to learn as much as I can about that topic. I enjoy learning new things & just learning in general.
Once I have learnt a new topic I love being able to spread my knowledge to everyone either at work or in my circle. The more people learn, the more the world learns too.
I have difficulty asking for help, even when I feel overwhelmed. I don’t like feeling that I’m disappointing people even when I’m not & this makes it hard for me to ask for help.
I understand that everyone works & learns in different ways & will never pressure anyone to work & learn the same way I do.
I always strive to do my best in every situation I am put in & find that I can adapt to situations quickly if needed.
