We all want children to be physically capable, emotionally stable and to have the ability to learn whatever it is they would like to accomplish in life. Having quality educators early in a child’s life is hugely important. At Oakdowns Early Learning we have a very strong team of experienced and highly educated professionals, one of whom has recently completed her University degree - a Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood). Congratulations Taylor! We are excited for you to have completed your studies and to have a little more spare time back in your life outside of work again.
For Oakdowns this means that we now have two University level Early Childhood Teachers who work in the Comets (2-3 yr old) and Starbrights (3-5 yr old) rooms. This adds a depth of knowledge to our team and additional support for all of our amazing educators across our service. We are very fortunate to have two Early Childhood Teachers alongside Rachel, our Educational Leader who is also studying her Bachelor qualification. Having qualified teachers working with young children is a reminder that the early childhood education and care sector is not just a babysitting service - it is where all of our young Australians begin their learning journeys. There are countless opportunities for early childhood learning every day that are fostered by our educators. Learning is not necessarily sitting at tables writing and reciting ABCs and our goal is not to take away a child’s curiosity or to turn them into mini adults as learning can happen in many ways, for example the physical coordination to kick a ball, to climb a playground, to witness how colours combine on a page painting or to recognise a bird in the sky. Education and development is something that we take great pride in and this is evident in our children's development as can be verified by our Oakdowns parents. We often have children entering our Oakdowns community as babies and emerging as confident and capable young children ready for school entry (some of our families have been with us for 10 years or more as all their children go through Oakdowns). Taylor, we are so proud of you and our entire team of educators at Oakdowns and the level of commitment you all have to studying and providing the best early childhood education for our next generation of children.
