My qualifications and experience

I have been working in the Early Childhood sector for over 35 years in various roles from Educator to Room Leader, and as Centre Director.

What I'm most passionate about in my role

Family and community are extremely important to me. I get great satisfaction from supporting children, families and staff and work hard to create an environment that facilitates excellence in education and care for all.

Having generations of families who have come through the centre gives the centre such a strong feeling of community. This includes listening to the stories that past children, grandparents, aunts and uncles share about their time at the centre, which embeds a feeling of “home” that is evident when you walk through our doors.

What I love about working with SDN

Working for SDN, where children and families are at the centre of everything we do is an honour.

There is a huge focus on acknowledging people's individual strengths and work. We are always ensuring that we deliver best practice within our community of early childhood educators, as well as across the entire organisation.

SDN also provides an environment where staff are supported to continue their learning journey and are acknowledged for this. 

A little bit more about me

I love spending time with my family and friends on our farm, where we breed cattle.
