Goodstart Pascoe Vale

I am so excited to share our beautiful new early learning centre with you.

About Me
I have worked in the early childhood education sector for over 14 years and feel incredibly privileged to have grown alongside so many wonderful children, families and educators during this time. My journey has allowed me to work across all age groups, from beginning as an education assistant, to leading rooms and completing my degree as an Early Childhood Teacher in the kindergarten room.

Since 2021, I have also had the pleasure of working as an Educational Leader, supporting and mentoring educators to create meaningful, high-quality learning experiences where every child can thrive.

As Centre Director, my philosophy is grounded in creating a warm, inclusive, and nurturing environment where every child feels valued, safe, and inspired to learn.

I believe that:

• Every child is unique - and deserves an environment that celebrates their individuality, nurtures their curiosity, and supports their growth.
• Strong relationships are essential - when children and families feel safe, secure and connected, they flourish. Partnering with families is at the heart of everything we do.
• Play is powerful - it is the foundation of children’s learning, allowing them to explore, experiment, and develop lifelong skills in joyful and meaningful ways.
• Diversity enriches us all — by embracing different cultures, abilities, and perspectives, we create a community where everyone feels a sense of belonging.
• Learning is lifelong - for children, families and educators alike. I am passionate about fostering a culture of reflection, growth, and shared inspiration.

I am deeply committed to leading our centre with kindness, collaboration and a strong focus on high-quality education. My goal is to create a place where children feel safe and excited to come each day, families feel supported and connected and educators feel empowered to do their best work.

Together, we can nurture bright beginnings and support every child on their journey toward lifelong learning and success.

My team and I can't wait to meet you at Goodstart Pasce Vale
