                 <p>I have been working in early childhood education since 2012. My passion lies in building relationships and supporting children\u2019s learning and developmental needs during their early years. Being part of such a diverse community of children, families, and educators is truly exciting and something we can all be proud of. I chose the Centre Manager position because I am passionate about mentoring and guiding our educators to provide the highest quality care for children.<\/p> <p>What makes Headstart Griffith special is our extensive range of excursions and incursions offered to the children. Our excursions include visits to local parks, bouldering, rhyme time at the library, and more. During warmer weather, we embark on adventures to explore and discover new things in the park. We also tailor excursions based on children\u2019s interests and community events, such as trips to the recycling centre, NAIDOC Week celebrations, art gallery workshops, and theatre shows.<\/p> <p>Our Griffith early learning centre is enriched by a diverse culture, deeply embedded in our programs and philosophy. With many bilingual team members, we can provide tours and communicate effectively with families where English is not their first language.

With years of experience in early childhood, I believe in creating a warm, nurturing space where children feel safe, valued, and empowered to explore the world around them.  <\/p> <p>At the heart of my approach is respect &#8211; I see every child as a unique individual with their own thoughts, feelings, and abilities. I strive to build trusting relationships by truly listening to children, acknowledging their emotions, and encouraging them to express themselves freely.  <\/p> <p>I believe that play is the most powerful way for children to learn. Through play, they develop problem-solving skills, creativity, and social connections. I encourage open-ended, unstructured play where children can follow their interests, explore new ideas, and learn at their own pace.  <\/p> <p>Social interaction is another key part of my teaching. Children learn so much from each other, so I create opportunities for group play, discussions, and teamwork. These experiences help them develop language, emotional intelligence, and collaboration skills that will support them throughout life.  <\/p> <p>I also recognise that a child\u2019s learning isn\u2019t just shaped by the classroom &#8211; it\u2019s influenced by their family, culture, and community. That\u2019s why I work closely with families, valuing their input and encouraging them to be involved in their child\u2019s learning journey.  <\/p> <p>Every child learns differently, so I take an individualised approach, observing and adapting activities to meet their unique needs. I focus on helping children developing a sense of agency, fostering independence and self-regulation. In our preschool rooms, children will have the confidence to make choices, solve problems, and take responsibility for their actions. My goal is to create an environment where children feel safe, curious, and excited to learn &#8211; because when children feel respected and supported, they thrive.<\/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                                                            <div class=\"g8-centre-managers__prev-button\"><i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-round-arrow-left\"><\/i><\/div>\n                                <div class=\"g8-centre-managers__next-button\"><i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-round-arrow-right\"><\/i><\/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__description g8-block-content\"><p>At our early learning centre in Griffith, our experienced educators and teachers continually seek innovative ways to enrich your child\u2019s education.

Some centres also provide sheets and formula, so you may not need to remember to pack them.\\nFor nursery children, be sure to bring: nappy rash cream, dummies, bottles and teats, comfort toys or blankets, three spare outfits, spare socks and a plastic bag for wet clothes.\\nFor toddlers and preschool or kindergarten-aged children, it\\u2019s best to bring: spare underwear, water bottle or sippy cup, sun hat, closed-toe shoes, two spare outfits, spare socks and a plastic bag for wet clothes.\\nPlus, anything else your individual child may need, such as breast milk, a sleeping bag, a comforter or medication.\\nIt\\u2019s best to speak to your centre of choice for a full list of everything included.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How do I get updates on my child's day?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Headstart uses Xplor Home as our family communication app. It is the best and easiest way to keep track of your child\\u2019s day.\\nAfter 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\\u2019s learning, learn about your child\\u2019s progress, as well as keep up-to-date with upcoming centre events and important information.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What happens if my child gets sick?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"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, Headstart is committed to maintaining a healthy environment and reducing the risk of infection for all children.\\nUnder 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.\"}}]}<\/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-griffith\" 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-griffith\" 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":448,"parent":247,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-277","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Headstart Griffith | Childcare &amp; Preschool Griffith<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Get the best start to early learning with our child care and preschool programs at Headstart Griffith.
