What makes you passionate about Early Childhood Education? Ten years ago, some incredibly passionate people inspired me to commence my career in Early Childhood Education. I began as a trainee and within a very short period of time I discovered my own passion for instilling a love of learning in young children. I believe that the early years can set children up for success in the academic years. Every day I am inspired by the children and the educators, as I work alongside them to provide a unique and special place for children to grow and develop life-long learning and skills. Play-based discovery and investigation alongside educators who provide an environment that is inviting, and inspires and provokes self-directed learning, is the foundation of future learning skills and integral to my personal philosophy.
During my ten years I have had the pleasure of seeing the delight in a child’s eyes when they discover new information about themselves, their world, and the people around them. How special to be a part of those revelations, to share in the joy and to learn something new about the world through a child’s perspective. This is what makes me passionate, and I am always honored to play a small part in the rich tapestry that is the human experience and existence.
