Babes Principal and Teacher

I have been working at EcoKids for 4 years. I absolutely love being the Principal and a teacher at EcoBabes. I enjoy establishing a deep love and respect for the families who cross my path. My main focus at our Babes House is to create a caring environment where my babies can thrive and grow and reach their milestones.

When I’m not in the classroom enriching little minds I enjoy, sewing, reading, crafting and being creative.

I have a huge passion for young learners and couldn’t see myself in any other profession. I truly believe teaching is a calling not just a job.  Favourite quote: “The best teachers are those who show you where to look but not what to see.”

Curious Crew Teacher

I have been teaching for 10 years , and every single year I seem to find more and more passion for what I do.
It is my goal to focus on each child individually and allow them to flourish in their own strong points.

I am a mom to a very busy and sporty 4 year old boy, who just fills my heart with joy.

Allowing a child to be their own person is something I truly believe is most important , and it’s our job as teachers to guide them along the way to becoming the best little people they can be.
