              <p>I began working in the early childhood education sector in 2005 and joined Headstart Clarendon in April 2024. I bring more than 20 years of experience across a range of roles, including Room Leader, Assistant Centre Manager, Educational Leader, and Centre Manager. From the beginning of my career, I recognised the importance of the early years in shaping children\u2019s confidence, identity, and love of learning. Watching children grow, discover their voices, and build a sense of belonging has always been one of the greatest privileges of my career. Supporting children at this important stage of life, helping them develop confidence, emotional security, and a love of learning, is both humbling and deeply meaningful.<\/p> <p>When speaking with families, I emphasise that learning at home is invaluable, as families are a child\u2019s first and most important teachers, and that early learning centres build on this foundation. In a high-quality early learning environment, educators intentionally design play-based experiences that support language, social development, emotional regulation, problem-solving, and early literacy and numeracy, all aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework. Children also benefit from learning alongside peers, building friendships, developing empathy and communication skills, and gaining confidence and independence in a supportive setting.<\/p> <p>My team is at the heart of everything we do. They are a passionate and committed group of educators who genuinely care about children, families, and each other. Together, we bring a diverse mix of experience, strengths, and perspectives, creating a culture of collaboration, reflection, and continuous learning where open communication and shared responsibility support high-quality outcomes for children.<\/p> <p>Supporting families and building strong partnerships is central to my leadership approach. I aim to ensure families feel welcomed, respected, heard, and genuinely partnered with from their very first interaction with the centre. Through open, honest, and consistent communication, and by creating an inclusive environment where families feel comfortable sharing their insights, concerns, and goals for their child, we work together to build trust and support each child\u2019s learning, wellbeing, and sense of belonging.<\/p> <p><\/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_66fb317bc7981\" 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__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 are actively developing our sustainability program, teaching children the importance of turning off lights when not in use and recycling materials.

All of our children have attended the centre for a period over the years, and it\u2019s been wonderful to see the consistent care, support and dedication the educators provide to every child.\n\nFrom the moment they started, the educators have made them feel safe, supported and genuinely cared for. Watching them settle in so quickly, build friendships and enjoy going to preschool each day has been wonderful.\n\nAlthough we\u2019ve only been at the centre for a month this time around, we\u2019ve already noticed such a positive difference. Our child is becoming more confident and independent, and he\u2019s already developing many of the skills he\u2019ll need for his transition to school next year. It\u2019s been incredible to see how much he\u2019s grown in such a short time.\n\nThe educators are kind, approachable and take the time to get to know each child as an individual. Communication with families has been excellent, and it\u2019s clear the team is passionate about creating a nurturing environment where children feel valued, supported and encouraged to learn.\n\nAs parents, there\u2019s nothing more reassuring than dropping your child off knowing they\u2019re happy, engaged and genuinely cared for. We are so grateful for everything the team has done for our children, and we wouldn\u2019t hesitate to recommend Headstart Early Learning Centre Clarendon to anyone looking for a caring, supportive and high-quality early learning centre.                                            <\/span>\n                                                                                <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                                                    <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide swiper-slide\">\n                                <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__content-container\">\n                                    <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__header\">\n                                        <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__meta\">\n                                            <h3 class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__author\">\n                                                Melissa Casey                                            <\/h3>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__rating\">\n                                        \n            <div class=\"stars-container g8-google-reviews__stars-container\">\n                <div class=\"stars empty\">\n                    <div class=\"stars full\"><i class=\"icon-star icon-star-solid\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><\/div>\n                    <i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>                                    <\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__text\">\n                                                                                    <span class=\"short-text\">\n                                                My son attended this centre for only seven months, and unfortunately, our experience went downhill very quickly.

Things seemed to get worse with each passing month.\n\nOne of the biggest concerns was the loss of the wonderful educators who genuinely went above and beyond for the children. They were replaced with staff who couldn\u2019t even pronounce my son\u2019s name correctly, which was disappointing and made us feel like the personal care, love and attention had been lost.\n\nOver time, my son regularly came home filthy covered in dirt, with dried food caked on his face and clothes. When they bothered to change his clothes, his dirty clothes were often mixed in with his clean bedding, which showed a lack of basic care and attention to hygiene.\n\nWe then received an email advising that the toddler and baby rooms would be combined to help with staff to child ratios. Even some of the educators expressed concerns that this change would hold the toddlers back in their development. I raised my concerns with the Centre Director Lourdes,\nbut received only a generic response.\n\nJust a week later, on my son\u2019s first day back after that email, he once again came home extremely dirty. I raised my concerns again, this time including the Area Manager, but unfortunately received another generic response with no meaningful action.\n\nAfter speaking with several other parents, I realised our concerns were not isolated. Many had experienced similar issues, and some had even contacted the Department of Education.\n\nAt that point, we decided this environment was no longer the right place for our son. We withdrew him and enrolled him in another centre, where the difference in care, communication, and overall quality has been incredible.\n\nBased on our experience, I would not recommend this centre to any parent who cares about their child\u2019s wellbeing and development. If I could give negative stars, I would                                            <\/span>\n                                                                                <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                                                    <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide swiper-slide\">\n                                <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__content-container\">\n                                    <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__header\">\n                                        <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__meta\">\n                                            <h3 class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__author\">\n                                                Belinda                                            <\/h3>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__rating\">\n                                        \n            <div class=\"stars-container g8-google-reviews__stars-container\">\n                <div class=\"stars empty\">\n                    <div class=\"stars full\"><i class=\"icon-star icon-star-solid\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star icon-star-solid\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star icon-star-solid\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star icon-star-solid\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star icon-star-solid\"><\/i><\/div>\n                    <i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>                                    <\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__text\">\n                                                                                    <span class=\"short-text\">\n                                                Both of my boys attended Headstart Clarendon from the time they were babies until they moved on to Kindergarten, and we couldn\u2019t have asked for a better start to their education journey.

They developed so many valuable, lifelong skills that have set them up beautifully for school and beyond. As a school teacher myself, I was incredibly impressed \u2014 from the moment I walked into the centre, I fell in love with the layout, the learning environment, and the thoughtfully designed programs in place.\nThe staff are warm, nurturing, and genuinely caring. I always felt that my children were valued and loved as if they were their own. That level of trust and reassurance as a parent is priceless.\nI truly can\u2019t recommend Headstart Clarendon highly enough.

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.

These can be taken for any reason, including public holidays and when children are sick, without requiring families to provide documentation.\"}}]}<\/script>    <\/section>\n\n\n    <section id=\"g8-image-content_26_66fb317bc7999\" class=\"g8-image-content g8-block-container  \">\n        <div class=\"g8-container\">\n            <div class=\"g8-row\">\n                <div class=\"g8-col\">\n                    <div class=\"g8-image-content__container full no-image\">\n                        <div class=\"g8-image-content__inner-container--image\">\n                                                                                                                    <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-pattern-star-heart pattern-one\"><\/i>\n                                                                                        <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-pattern-sun-pen pattern-two\"><\/i>\n                                                    <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"g8-image-content__inner-container--content\">\n                                                                                        <h2 class=\"g8-image-content__title g8-block-subtitle\">Contact us<\/h2>\n                                                                                        <div class=\"g8-image-content__content g8-block-wysiwyg\"><p style=\"text-align: center\">We look forward to welcoming your family.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n                                                                                                                        <div class=\"g8-image-content__buttons-group\">\n                                                                                                            <a href=\"\/book-a-tour?centre=headstart-early-learning-centre-clarendon\" class=\"g8-image-content__button\" target=\"\" title=\"Book a tour\"><span>Book a tour<\/span><\/a>\n                                                                                                                                                <a href=\"\/enquire-now\/?centre=headstart-early-learning-centre-clarendon\" class=\"g8-image-content__button\" target=\"\" title=\"Enquire now\"><span>Enquire now<\/span><\/a>\n                                                                                                    <\/div>\n                                                    <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":447,"parent":247,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-273","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Headstart Clarendon | Childcare &amp; Preschool Clarendon<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Get the best start to early learning with our child care and preschool programs at Headstart Clarendon.
