At Little Friends Early Learning, we believe in providing the best quality education and care to all families and we believe that this is done by providing them with highly qualified Early Childhood Teachers and Educators. Our educators are specifically chosen to suit the needs of the service and the service-learning environment.
We want to ensure the best for all the children who attend our service, so we ensure that we are providing the children with the best access to quality Early Childhood Teachers and Educators throughout each of our four rooms and carefully place educators in the rooms which allow them to use their strengths to their full potential.
I love caring for children and creating a loving, nurturing environment, is something I am very passionate about. It is my aim that each child feels safe, secure and has a sense of belonging in my care. I have been working as a childcare educator for many years and feel that building strong relationships with the children and families is very important to me. I understand that each child is unique with their own personality, and I value the diverse cultures that make up this centre. I feel privileged to be a part of each child’s journey, helping them grow and learn through their experiences here.
Early Education to me is about working alongside children to capture the wow moments, those moments of magic that we can only see through the eyes of the child. My most passion is working with the outdoor environment where the children play and learn in a more, motivated and purposeful setting which allows them to develop a more positive attitude. I believe in mindfulness and the children’s emotional health which will allow for relaxation and calmness to assist in their emotions and therefore building better relationships with children and their educators. As an educator I strongly believe in building relationships with families , being able to connect awareness of how their beliefs and values impact on children’s learning.
I believe that children are capable and social beings, with the ability to actively construct their own identities, learning and decisions. I strongly believe that learning is most effective when children take responsibility for it themselves. I believe that the key to helping children to reach their full potential is to build strong relationships with their educators. I work collaboratively with children and their families and I strive to encourage children to pursue their own interests and ideas. This creates a learning environment where children are respected and viewed as individuals and where learning is meaningful, based off the children’s interests, ideas and enquiry questions. This ensures that learning is interesting, fun and fosters curiosity and a love for learning in the children.
