Centre Manager - Great Beginnings Secret Harbour

“I love watching children explore the world around them, become confidently involved in their learning, and take on new challenges. ”

My early learning journey started in 2021. I joined the team at Great Beginnings Secret Harbour in 2023. I have worked as a room leader in all different age groups and as an assistant centre manager before becoming a centre manager.

I was a stay-at-home parent and enjoyed watching my daughter learn and grow, so I decided to pursue this career. I love watching children explore the world around them, become confidently involved in their learning, and take on new challenges. I also found great passion in supporting and encouraging a team of educators.

The most important thing I've learnt during my time in Early Childhood Education is that every child is different and has different needs and interests. We need to adjust our teaching style to ensure we reach each child in a positive way that will encourage them to grow and learn. 

My team is a diverse group of people who bring a great array of knowledge to the service. We are dedicated to creating a safe and inspiring learning environment and providing high-quality education and care to the local community.

I build relationships with families by being open and honest with families. We are always available to help, and we welcome all feedback from families.
