I have worked in early childhood education and care for 15 years. During that time I have been a cook for children of diverse backgrounds and dietary needs. I have worked as an educator and lead educator for children aged birth to 7 years. I have managed childcare centres and been the national manager of children's services for a childcare provider. I genuinely love working with children and have experience working with children with different needs and rights. I am a single mum and have a 7-year-old son who I share care with .
