Summary

Dedicated and passionate Early Childhood Educator, recently completed a Graduate Diploma in Early Childhood Education. I have extensive experience working with babies and toddlers, designing engaging activities that are well-received by both children and parents, earning their recognition and positive feedback. During a period when the centre’s chef resigned, I also served as a temporary cook, preparing safe and nutritious meals while being mindful of children’s allergies and dietary needs. Due to the sale of my previous centre, I am now seeking to rejoin the early childhood education field and contribute my skills, creativity, and dedication to supporting children’s learning and development.
