Phoebe - Multiage Educator

Kaylene - Multiage Educator

I've worked in Childcare for 25 years. Over that time I have worked in pre-school, kindergarden, occasional care & Long day care. I have also been an assitant and in charge of different aged rooms. I have worked at Knight St Multi-age learning since 2004.

I like that the our centre is open for new ideas and operating procedures. Despite being a smaller center we have become multi-aged, offer bush kinder & do excursions where the whole centre is involved. I love that the babies have their own space to explore and be challanged. The educators have time to build good strong bonds with the babies, yet we are included in excursions & have family grouping, siblings can visit too.
