    From playing teachers in my backyard as a child to having my mum work in Early childhood for over 20 years...

    From playing teachers in my backyard as a child to having my mum work in Early childhood for over 20 years, it’s always something that has come natural to myself. Early education is such an important part of a child's development, I believe children need time this time to create life-long friendships, role play, get dirty and most important have fun.

    As an educator, i hope to set children up with skills they can use for life. As an educator I guide the children to understand our world and help them find their place within it, and someone that means letting make the wrong choices therefore helping the children grow and develop. As an educator I want to help every child succeed to the best of their ability, by giving each child a realistic goal. Children need exposure to both the indoor and outdoor environment, love bringing the natural elements into the classroom.

    A bit about me:
    I was born in the South West Sydney town of Camden, where i grew up with my mum, dad and younger brother. I spend a lot of time with my family on the South Coast where i still visit regularly. Due to this i have had a love for the Ocean all through my life, from body surfing to bodyboarding (failed at surfing) though my most recent love is paddle boarding which i do with my parents as well as my partner Mike, we paddle lakes mostly and have a few times tried to brave the waves (turning out not so well).

    I also love snowboarding. Loved it that much in 2016 I left home and moved to Jindabyne and worked in a Childcare centre on the Mountain.

    I believe each and every child has the potential to bring something unique and special to this world...

    I believe each and every child has the potential to bring something unique and special to this world. I strive to help children to develop their potential by believing in them as capable individuals. I assist the children in discovering who they are, so they can express their own opinions and nurture their own ideas.

    I believe that it is very important to have a child in an environment that is caring, nurturing and secure. Children need to be able to form secure attachments not only with their parents but also with their educators to ensure a feeling of belonging. Being in a loving and nurturing environment forms these types of attachments. I believe every child’s strength and individuality should be nurtured and celebrated. I strive to teach and role model good values.

    The children have taught me to open my mind and my heart to their joys, and innocence. They remind me not to take life too seriously and that there is always something new to learn. Watching the children grow gives me such personal enrichment. I love being able to share in their happiness and hopefully bring smiles to their faces.

    A Bit About Me:
    I grew up in beautiful Mirriwinni in North Queensland, with my parents and two older brothers, We later moved to Sydney to be closer to family. I come from an Italian background where my parents instilled very strong work ethics and values to myself and my siblings. Family is a huge part of my life. Our family love to get together to celebrate special occasions or for no reason than to enjoy amazing food and each other’s company.

    My husband Paul is English, he has infinite patience and is a jack of all trades [although trying to get him to do things on my list of jobs is not easy] My daughter Jessica is a teacher at a Catholic primary school. My son Nicholas is in year 12 and is my go to person when I need help with technology [Often].

    My children are my greatest achievement and I love them to the moon and back a million times over.

    I love family time together, having dinner altogether when possible, the simple things in life like relaxing at home, cooking, gardening, watching movies, coffee, the colour and smell of the early morning flower markets and a good sense of humour.

    I always knew my love of young children would lead me into the career path I have now. I love being around children. I’m uplifted by their energy, innocence, humour and because they remind me that life is full of simple pleasures. I am blessed to get up each day and love what I do.

    I believe that all children are individually beautiful, different and unique. I as an educator value each child's strengths, interests, knowledge and skills. Use my observations to implement strategies to extend their learning through play, providing opportunities to explore, imagine, create and discover at their own pace.

    From an early age, I have always wanted to be a teacher,forcing my baby brother to sit on a chair in the laundry, while I drew lessons on the walls!! Then teaching music to young children in my teens, to being around all my nieces and nephews (18 altogether), and working in childcare for the last 18 years. Great teachers empathise with children,respect them and believe that each one has something special that can be built upon.

    A bit about me:
    I love and enjoy my life every day,because of my wonderful husband Tony, my three children and their partners, and our 8 beautiful grandchildren. Family is the most important thing in my life,and thanks to a good work/life balance,I get to enjoy something special each day. I also love coming to work,playing,talking and being with the children,and getting to know their families.I believe that by staying positive and happy,and giving back each day, good karma will follow you all the days of your life.Oh and singing and dancing help as well.

    Children learn best when their educators are warm and nurturing, hold high expectations for their learning and are attuned to their needs and interests...

    Children learn best when their educators are warm and nurturing, hold high expectations for their learning and are attuned to their needs and interests. Accordingly, the child’s right to play will be consistently reflected in my pedagogy, the environment, and the ways I interact with children on a daily basis. I believe that children are naturally inquisitive, and their creativity, curiosity and imagination should be fostered and further developed through both intentional teaching practices and child-led experiences. Therefore, they are not just empty vessels to fill with knowledge but rather active constructors of their own theories about their world. I truly believe that all young children deserve access to high quality early education as this sets the foundation for their development now and beyond.

    A bit about me:
    Coming from a Vietnamese background, I have always been surrounded by and proud of the diversity within the communities of South-Western Sydney that I’ve been born and grew up in. I consider myself a family-oriented person and I am blessed to have my mum and dad and my two older siblings. We practically do pretty much everything together even until this day. My parents used to own a Vietnamese restaurant and are great cooks – this explains why I love food so much and why it is such an important aspect in my life! My other interests and hobbies are: shopping, online shopping (haha), gaming, music, art and design.

    After completing my higher secondary education in 2011, I went straight into University. I studied Social Work at the University of Sydney for two years before realising it wasn’t for me. When I transferred to Early Childhood Education, I finally found something I was really passionate about and interested in. Thank goodness! My time at University taught me so much and challenged me to be more, do more and learn more.

    As I am a newly university graduate, I am still learning and developing my skills. Working here at Everlearn Preschool has definitely provided various opportunities for my own personal growth and development as an Early Childhood Teacher. Teaching and learning from young children will always be something I hold close to my heart. My family and friends often ask me, “How do you do it? How do you work with children for such a long period of time?” and I always reply with, “It is tiring and exhausting, but it is the most rewarding job in the world and I wouldn’t change it for a thing”.

    My teaching philosophy is characterised by respecting childhood as a phase to explore, create and be joyful. These are the three key aspects that guide me throughout my journey as an educator.

    My teaching philosophy is characterised by respecting childhood as a phase to explore, create and be joyful. These are the three key aspects that guide me throughout my journey as an educator.

    Teaching children using their natural interest in exploring the world is my task as an educator. It is teaching by helping children experience vitality in learning for themselves. I am deeply inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach that takes child's interest and prior knowledge as the starting point of learning which leads to exploration and discovery of new concepts and ideas.

    The second aspect of my teaching philosophy is imbedding love for arts and creativity. I believe that children should be encouraged to express, represent and communicate their thinking through various artistic forms.

    Believing that learning is a joyful journey encompasses the final aspect of my teaching philosophy. Learning should always be joyful, fun and easy. Moreover, I pursued a teaching career to bring enjoyment and boost self-esteem of every child under my care by portraying a positive image, professionalism and focusing on their strengths. I must be certain that I am not only seen and heard, much more, I am felt.

    A bit about me:

    I’m a Filipino. I moved to Australia in December 2018 from Singapore where I obtained my diploma in Early Childhood Care and Education and worked as a childcare educator for 8 years.

    I am happily married to my loving husband, Greg. We are always up to crazy adventures! We love spontaneous travels, bush camping, four-wheel driving, fishing, diving or sometimes we just wanna relax and binge-watch all weekend long.

    I started working with the Everlearn team when I was here as a student in 2019. I loved the centre and how engaging and interesting each learning area was and how much the children enjoy their learning. I believe that children learn best when the lesson, activities and experiences are fun, engaging and interactive and I also believe that it is important for the learning to be based around the children’s interests as they are more likely to engage with the lessons and the activities.

    A bit about me:

    I am Australian born and have a Greek background. My family are from an island in Greece called ‘Kalymnos’. I have a brother who is two years younger than me and we grew up being each other’s protector and best friend. I spent a lot of my earlier years helping and teaching my brother and younger cousins and it was something I really enjoyed doing and the main reason why I wanted to become a teacher.

    At a very young age I enjoyed looking after small children. So it was just obvious that a preschool setting was ideal for me. I believe with love, patience and encouragement, children learn and strive to be the best they can be. An environment that is welcoming and warm helps build trust and therefore a happy child. An educator who is loving and supportive ensures a happy and confident young person.

    A bit about me:

    I am a mother of three young boys who are now all in high school. I am married to a loving husband of 20 years. I love to cook and bake as it helps me relax. My family enjoy travelling and our last destinations have been memorable such as America, Philippines and Peru. Life is short and let’s enjoy it to the fullest.

    The concept behind Everlearn was three years in the making before we opened our first campus in 2010. Being a primary school teacher myself at the time, and looking for suitable a preschool for my own daughter, I saw a desperate need in the Sydney area for preschools with a strong focus on early education, school readiness, and values education. With a clear understanding of the social, emotional and academic skills that children need to successfully transition into the primary school world, I set out to create a preschool that balances these skills and helps children to develop a love of learning and a sense of belonging in their formative years.

    For nearly 10 years I have worked with Nichola and our team of exemplary educators at Everlearn Preschool. It has been my privilege in that time to see thousands of children walk through our doors and grow over their time with us into confident and brave little people, ready to take on the world.

    Every day I see the impact that our early educators have on the lives of the children at our centres, from assisting children in developing their social skills to exploring new learning experiences and everything in between. I am proud to be able to support them in the incredibly positive impact that they have each day in the most formative years of our children's lives.
