As the Director and Educational leader of One Step Up Childcare,
I understand I have an influential role in promoting positive outcomes for staff, children and families. I believe effective educational leadership builds the capacity of educators by inspiring, motivating, challenging and extending educators practices and pedagogies.
I will aim to develop a positive team culture that continuously improves the practice and pedagogy of educators. I believe that taking risks in learning and making mistakes are part of the learning process for adults as well as children.
My goal as the educational leader is to lead my team through quality practice to achieve effective outcomes in our educational programs. I endeavour to develop reflective practices to enable us to deliver the EYLF and NQS to a high standard. I will always try to display strong leadership abilities with clear direction while being respectful and always considering / listening to the demands of my team.
As the Director of One Step Up Childcare I strive to create a safe, welcoming environment for the children to learn and grow in.
I believe the early years of a child’s life are what shapes them and therefore why I am so passionate about maximising their sense of wellbeing, belonging and opportunities for growth. Seeing a smile on the children’s faces each day for me, is the most rewarding job in the world and I am so grateful each and every day for the relationships I have and continue build in our centre.
