“What I love most about this field is being able to support children as they grow, learn, and develop new skills in a safe and encouraging environment.”

I began working in early childhood education in 2010. I joined Community Kids Campbelltown in 2025 and bring many years of experience and a genuine passion for supporting children and families.

From a young age, I’ve always had a passion for working with children. Growing up in a big family, I was often the one creating activities and caring for my cousins and siblings, which naturally led me into early learning. What I love most about this field is being able to support children as they grow, learn, and develop new skills in a safe and encouraging environment.

Throughout my career, I’ve learned that every child is different and that every child learns in their own way. This understanding guides my approach and reinforces the importance of creating environments that support individual learning styles and allow children to develop at their own pace. Helping to create an environment that encourages children to learn and develop new skills is what makes this role so rewarding for me.

I often explain to families that attending an early childhood education and care centre gives children the opportunity to learn from one another. Being around peers of a similar age helps children build confidence, become more involved in their learning, and develop important social skills. Our team is made up of a mix of long-standing educators and team members who are continuing to build on their skills and abilities. Together, we bring over many years of combined experience, creating a supportive and positive environment for children and families.

My role is not only to support the children, but to support families as well. I value open lines of communication and work closely with families to help bridge the gap between home and school, ensuring families feel supported, informed, and confident in their child’s learning journey.

Our innovative early learning programs

At our early learning centre in Campbelltown, our play-based curriculum is guided by the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), supporting children to learn through play, exploration and discovery.

Sustainability

Children develop respect for the environment through gardening, recycling and nature-based learning. Educators also introduce the interconnected aspects of sustainability, including environmental, social and economic, through concepts like fairness, sharing and community.

Social and emotional learning

Children develop a strong sense of identity as they feel safe, secure and supported, building confidence, resilience and a positive sense of self. Through group activities, conversations and play, children learn to interact with others with care, empathy and respect, building positive relationships and friendships.

Language and early literacy

Children develop early literacy through storytelling, books, songs and meaningful conversations. Educators support children to explore language in many forms, including speaking, listening, viewing, drawing and writing, while building confidence communicating with others.

Independence and life skills

Children develop autonomy, interdependence, resilience and a sense of agency through meaningful participation in everyday routines, such as preparing snack, caring for plants, and tidying shared spaces.

Age-appropriate early learning

Our Family Support Team will add your child’s name to our waitlist if one of our childcare centres is currently full in your child’s age group. We will then contact you as soon as a place becomes available.

We also do monthly check-ins to review availability, and you will receive a text message confirming whether you’re still happy to remain on the waitlist each month. If you would like an update at any point, you’re welcome to reach out on our Web Chat or give us a call.

It’s common for a child to experience separation anxiety when they first start child care. When you’re getting ready to start child care, you can help your child overcome anxieties by visiting the child care service together for a Stay and Play session, and easing into new routines at home.

Most of our child care and early education centres offer nappies and wipes, sunscreen and hats, as well as nutritious meals prepared by our in-house cook. Some centres also provide sheets and formula, so you may not need to remember to pack them.

For nursery children, be sure to bring: nappy rash cream, dummies, bottles and teats, comfort toys or blankets, three spare outfits and spare socks.

For toddlers and preschool or kindergarten-aged children, it’s best to bring: spare underwear, water bottle or sippy cup, sun hat, closed-toe shoes, two spare outfits and spare socks.

Plus, anything else your individual child may need, such as breast milk, a sleeping bag, a comforter or medication.

It’s best to speak to your centre of choice for a full list of everything included.

Community Kids uses Xplor Home as our family communication app. It is the best and easiest way to keep track of your child’s day.

After you enrol your child with the centre, you can utilise Xplor Home to book child care days, manage your account, receive the photographs that capture your child’s learning, learn about your child’s progress, as well as keep up-to-date with upcoming centre events and important information.

If your child shows signs of an infectious illness when they arrive at the centre or becomes sick during the day, you may be notified that you need to make alternative arrangements or pick up your child from the centre and keep them home until they are no longer infectious. While we understand that this can be inconvenient, Community Kids is committed to maintaining a healthy environment and reducing the risk of infection for all children.

Under the Child Care Subsidy (CCS), families are allowed 42 absence days per child, per financial year. These can be taken for any reason, including public holidays and when children are sick, without requiring families to provide documentation.
