Meet Our Team

Chelsea East leads our team at Milestones Darwin City with more than 12 years of experience in early childhood education. Starting her journey as a trainee in 2013, Chelsea has progressed through every stage of the profession - now holding a Bachelor of Early Childhood Teaching (Birth to 5 Years) and currently studying a Master’s in Leading Education, along with a Graduate Certificate in Assessment and Training.

Chelsea is passionate about the power of the early years. She believes the first five years of a child’s life are the most influential in shaping their development and love for learning. Her goal is to create a nurturing, play-based environment where children feel safe, supported, and inspired every day.

Under Chelsea’s leadership, our team is made up of highly qualified and dedicated educators - several of whom are studying or hold degrees in teaching children from birth to five. Our centre is proud to be recognised as a hub for quality early learning, with university students often completing their placements alongside our experienced team.
