Summary

As a Senior Preschool Educator with experience in the early childhood education field since 2010, I have been overseeing center operations as the Covering Centre Leader since June 2024. Prior to this role, I managed my own class while also supporting the Centre Leader with operational needs, including administrative paperwork, compliance, and daily center management. My responsibilities have extended beyond teaching to include staff coordination, curriculum planning, maintaining safety and health standards, and fostering parent engagement. Through these roles, I have played a key part in ensuring both the educational quality and smooth operations of the preschool.
