                          <p>I have been working in early childhood education since 2009. I returned to First Grammar Freshwater in 2026 after previously working here for two years as Assistant Centre Manager. I have also worked as a Director for over three years, gaining extensive leadership experience supporting educators, children, and families.<\/p> <p>My time in early childhood education has been incredibly rewarding. I am deeply motivated to help children grow and thrive through meaningful experiences and tailored learning opportunities, while also supporting families and working alongside a dedicated team to create inclusive, positive learning environments. Listening, observing, and responding to children\u2019s interests allows us to create meaningful learning experiences that truly support their development. This understanding shapes my approach to be flexible, reflective, and child-led, ensuring that every child feels safe, supported, and confident to explore and learn at their own pace.<\/p> <p>When speaking with families, I often explain that early learning centres complement the learning that happens at home by providing purposeful, play-based experiences that support all areas of development. Early childhood education offers children opportunities to learn alongside peers, build relationships, and develop confidence in a supportive environment guided by trained educators.<\/p> <p>I feel privileged to work alongside a passionate and nurturing team who are deeply committed to providing high-quality care and education. Together, we focus on creating a positive environment where children\u2019s needs are always at the centre of everything we do.<\/p> <p>Supporting families is a key priority for me. I build strong partnerships by maintaining open, respectful communication, taking the time to understand each family\u2019s goals and perspectives, and working collaboratively to support their child\u2019s learning journey. By being approachable, honest, and responsive, I aim to ensure that every family feels welcomed, valued, and confident in the care and education we provide.<\/p> <p>We look forward to welcoming your family.<\/p>                                                    <\/div>\n                                                                                                            <a href=\"#\" class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__read-more\"><span>Read <span\n                                                                    class=\"more\">more<\/span><span class=\"less\">less<\/span><\/span><\/a>\n                                                                                                                                                <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                                                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"g8-slider-pagination-container\">\n                                <div class=\"g8-centre-managers__pagination g8-slider-pagination\"><\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                            \n                                                <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-star-two\"><\/i>\n                        <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-three-lines\"><\/i>\n                        <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-book\"><\/i>\n                        <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-music\"><\/i>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n\n    <section id=\"g8-icon-card_8_66bd59955c4ca\" class=\"g8-icon-card  \">\n        <div class=\"g8-container\">\n            <div class=\"g8-row\">\n                <div class=\"g8-col\">\n                    <div class=\"g8-icon-card__container g8-block-container\">\n                        <div class=\"g8-icon-card__header g8-block-header\">\n                                                            <h2 class=\"g8-icon-card__title\">Our innovative early learning programs<\/h2>\n                                                    <\/div>\n                                                    <div class=\"g8-icon-card__description g8-block-content\"><p style=\"text-align: left\">At our early learning centre in Cairns, our play-based curriculum is guided by the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), supporting children to learn through play, exploration and discovery.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                                                                            <div class=\"g8-icon-card__cards swiper\">\n                                <div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n                                                                            <div\n                                            class=\"g8-icon-card__card swiper-slide lg-one-fourth\">\n                                            <div class=\"g8-icon-card__card__icon-container\">\n                                                <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-leaf\"><\/i>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                            <h4 class=\"g8-icon-card__card__title\">Sustainability<\/h4>\n                                            <p class=\"g8-icon-card__card__description\">We have yearly incursions from the council focused on sustainability and recycling.

We changed daycares when we moved to Redlynch, and I was very anxious about how he would handle the transition. From the very beginning, the lovely staff made us feel so comfortable and supported, not just as parents, but especially for our little boy.\n\nThe team was so kind and attentive, really taking the time to listen to our routines and preferences. Our son was only one year old at the time and found the change quite difficult, but the educators were incredibly patient, nurturing, and comforting. Miss Sonam, who was his main teacher when he started, has been absolutely amazing. She listened to us, showed such warmth and care, and our son absolutely adores her. But honestly, all the staff are so wonderful and you can truly see how much the whole team cares about the children.\n\nI love the app they use as well, where you can monitor exactly when and what they\u2019ve had for food, when they\u2019re sleeping etc, and pictures are posted during the day of what the kids are up to.\n\nOur son has flourished since joining First Grammar Freshwater, and we\u2019re so grateful for the genuine love and dedication they show every day. Another thing we really appreciate is how open they are to feedback. They actively ask for it and are always happy to discuss ideas, whether it\u2019s about the food menu or other parts of the program.\n\nWe\u2019re so thankful for the caring and professional care they provide, where our son feels happy, safe, and supported.

If the centre is the right fit and a place is available, you\u2019ll receive an enrolment offer for your child. If a place is not currently available in your child\u2019s age group, we can add your child to the waitlist and keep you updated.<\/p>\n<p>To finalise your enrolment, you\u2019ll complete an online enrolment form through a secure link sent by our Family Support Team. You\u2019ll also need to provide key details and documents, including your child\u2019s birth certificate, Medicare details, immunisation history statement and, if eligible, your Child Care Subsidy details.<\/p>\n<p>Before your child\u2019s first day, you may be invited to attend a Stay and Play session. This gives your child time to explore the centre, meet their educators, and start feeling comfortable in their new environment. Once your paperwork is complete, your child is ready to start their early learning journey with us.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/family-information\/how-to-enrol\">Read our step-by-step guide on how to enrol here.<\/a><\/p>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n                                                                    <div class=\"g8-accordion__item accordion-item\">\n                                        <h2 class=\"g8-accordion__item__header accordion-header\">\n                                            <button class=\"g8-accordion__item__header__button accordion-button collapsed\"\n                                                type=\"button\" data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\"\n                                                data-bs-target=\"#flush-collapse-g8-accordion_22_66bd5b7c2eef9-2\"\n                                                aria-expanded=\"false\"\n                                                aria-controls=\"flush-collapse-g8-accordion_22_66bd5b7c2eef9-2\">\n                                                <span\n                                                    class=\"g8-accordion__item__title\">What can I do to help my child prepare for starting care?<\/span>\n                                                <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-alt-arrow-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>\n                                            <\/button>\n                                        <\/h2>\n                                        <div id=\"flush-collapse-g8-accordion_22_66bd5b7c2eef9-2\"\n                                            class=\"accordion-collapse collapse\"\n                                            data-bs-parent=\"#g8-accordion_22_66bd5b7c2eef9-items\">\n                                            <div class=\"g8-accordion__item__content g8-block-wysiwyg\">\n                                                <p>Starting child care is a big milestone, and a little preparation can help your child feel more comfortable and confident.<\/p>\n<p>Before your child\u2019s first day, you can talk positively about their new centre, explain what their day might look like, and practise small routines such as packing their bag, saying goodbye, washing hands and sitting down for meals.
