Emma’s commitment is to ensure all children have access to Quality Educational Programs. Emma is a firm believer in the rights of the child are to be embedded into everyday practices and the code of ethics is paramount to all practises. Emma believes all children have the right to be in a safe, stimulating and learning environment.

Julie has been working with children of all ages since 2003, becoming a Manager in children’s services in 2008. Julie believes children develop and learn to the best of their abilities when they feel safe and secure and can build meaningful relationships with their educators and peers enabling them to be confident learners.

I have been working in the child care industry since 2005, in that time I have worked with all different ages from 6 weeks to 15 years old and I have worn many different hats in that time. I believe that children learn through play. In providing the children the opportunities for children to explore, discover, create and imagine in the world around them, this will allow the children to have the tools to become confident learners.
