Summary

Enthusiastic Graduate Kindergarten Teacher with a strong commitment to fostering fun and creative education in the early years. I am set to complete my degree in November 2024 and am eager to join the workforce for the 2025 school year. My comprehensive understanding of the Victorian Curriculum, VEYLDF Practice Principles, NQS, and relevant policies is complemented by over two years of professional experience in diverse Early Childhood settings, including:

  • Explorers Early Learning
  • Mckinnon Kindergarten (Glen Education)
  • Guardian Education
  • Parkdale Preschool

I am dedicated to creating emotionally safe environments that inspire children to learn and grow. Child protection and safety are top priorities in my approach to education.
