Centre Director
Bachelor of Early Childhood Education and Care · More than 5 years’ experience

I've been working in early childhood education and care for eight years, with almost three of those at Jenny's ELC. While I've worked in other services, Jenny's ELC truly feels like home — the strong sense of community, supportive leadership, and meaningful relationships with families make it a place I'm proud to be part of.

I hold a Bachelor of Early Childhood Education and Care and I'm passionate about making a positive difference for children and families in our local community. My favourite moments are when children are excited to see you each day — those connections reflect the trust built over time, and they remind me why I love this work. I'm committed to creating a warm, inclusive environment where every child feels safe, supported, and valued.
