Childs World Early Learning Centre Managers

  • Nicole Childs World Group - Director of Operations

    Years of Experience:  I have been in the childcare industry for the past 27 years and for much of that time I have worked in management roles.

    Qualifications: I hold an Advanced Diploma in Children’s Services
    What I would like children to learn from me: I believe children are the cornerstone of our way of life and are our most valuable assets and for these reasons I would like children to learn from me to be kind, considerate, caring and supportive towards each other and to just enjoy their early years by having fun through natural based play and by having real and meaningful day to day interactions with their little friends and adults alike.
    Why I love working with children: I love working with and around children as I see first hand their daily growth and their hunger for knowledge and their willingness to undertake different learning experiences and to see how they actively participate in the many and varied cultural activities available to them at Childs World. The joy on the faces of the children when they partake in a new adventure or achieve a new goal gives me all the satisfaction I need to stay in this industry for another 27 years.

    Why I love working with children: The innocence of children is a “breath of fresh air”. I love watching them discover who they are and what interests them the most. Their individuality and outlook with their peers make them who they are and allows a vision of where they can be nurtured to being the best version of themselves. A little guidance and recognition gives confidence, acceptance and security.

Its very rewarding to see them grow and improve their abilities and know that they are becoming safer in and around the water.
