began my career in early learning in 2000 and joined the team at Headstart Ocean Grove in 2009. Over the years, I have worked as a Lead Educator, Assistant Centre Manager, and Centre Manager.  <\/p> <p>Working with children has always been my passion. Watching them grow into confident learners is a privilege. Every child has the right to feel safe, loved, and secure in their environment. Each child is unique, with their own personality, which makes this work so rewarding. <\/p> <p>Early Childhood Education focuses on the holistic development of a child\u2019s social, emotional, cognitive, and physical needs, laying a solid foundation for lifelong learning and well-being. At Headstart Ocean Grove, we have an extraordinary team of passionate educators who truly make our centre the best place to be. Many of our team members have called Headstart Ocean Grove home for many years, a testament to the strong bonds we\u2019ve built. <\/p> <p>I believe it\u2019s essential for educators to work in partnership with families to ensure each child reaches their full potential. We rely on regular communication to make families feel like they are a vital part of their children\u2019s learning journey. <\/p> <p>We look forward to welcoming you to Headstart Ocean Grove early education centre. <\/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\">At our Ocean Grove early education centre, sustainability is woven into daily activities, focusing on our veggie garden, worm farm, and comprehensive recycling program.

This past weekend, my son surprised us by proficiently using the keyword sign for &#039;more,&#039; a sign that I hadn&#039;t introduced to him yet. This milestone is a testament to the dedication and expertise of Teika, Kaytlyn, Pat, Charlotte, and other educators who contribute to my sons growth. Their patience, nurturing guidance, and attention to detail, such as encouraging sign language to complement verbal communication, have not gone unnoticed.\n\nIt is evident that my sons educators are deeply committed to understanding and meeting each child&#039;s unique needs. These small yet significant moments, like my son&#039;s newfound skill, fill our family with immense gratitude for the nurturing environment you cultivate.\n\nA heartfelt thanks to the educators who support my son daily. Your positive influence extends far beyond the classroom&#039;s walls, shaping brighter futures for our children.\n\nA side note, my son has attended 3 centres and I have a background as an early years educator, I can safely say this learning environment is second to none.                                            <\/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                                                Anna Cordner                                            <\/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                                                My son has had a great experience in the nursery at Headstart.

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.

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-ocean-grove\" 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-ocean-grove\" 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":449,"parent":247,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-316","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Headstart Ocean Grove | Childcare &amp; Kindergarten Ocean Grove<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Get the best start to early learning with our child care and kindergarten programs at Headstart Ocean Grove.
