I have been working in the childcare industry for over 18 years. During this time, I have had the opportunity to work with all age groups and progress in my career to the Centre Director role. I continually enjoy sharing special moments and being part of so many children’s lives and enabling them to have the best start in life with Early Childhood Education.

I am passionate about making each day at our centre one that is positive for both children and families. Supporting children’s development and emotional health is important to me. I respect parents’ and guardians’ role as the first educators of their children and ensure communication is open and meaningful.

I am a Mum of one and I love every moment that I get with my daughter. In my spare time, I enjoy going on small adventures with my family, such as mountain climbs, beach trips, and enjoying the outdoors.

I am a friendly and caring person so if you have any questions, please feel free to come and have a chat with me or book a tour and I will show you around our centre and introduce you to our wonderful team.
