CHC50113 Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care

I am a Diploma qualified Educator with years of experience in this Industry. I currently work in the Kindy room at Read 2 Grow.

I believe in cultural diversity. I enjoy celebrating the benefits of diversity with each individual child and enable them to understand and acknowledge differences.

Each child is unique with different interests, backgrounds, and developmental stages. I strongly believe Environment plays a major role in the success of an early childhood program. I enjoy creating different environments in the room which enhance the children’s interests in all developmental domains. It gives them a great opportunity to explore their imaginations and learn in a play-based manner.

Teaching children is my passion. Children should be given choices, responsibilities, and opportunities to initiate their own learning.

Social skills, communication skills, physical abilities or challenges and learning styles of the children should be taken in consideration for a learning program.

The early years of child’s life are busy. I believe learning is happening all the time. Therefore, my goal is to make this ongoing learning experience safe, positive, and fun, nurturing the whole child as I strive to guide them into next stage of development with confidence in themselves and an excitement for continued learning.

Natalie

CHC50113 Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care

In the early childhood period of development, children are curious, full of wonder and need to explore to discover and learn. Every moment, children are learning important and exciting things for each stage for their lives.

I believe that children has the potential to bring something unique and special to the world, as an educator I will value and develop children’s strengths, interest, skills, abilities and knowledge to be able to extend children’s learning and development.

I believe that play based learning helps children develop and learn the best in a loving, nurturing, empathetic, calm, safe and healthy environment, children learn at the time with play and experiences to develop their developmental domains.

I believe that each child is an individual and as an educator, I will value and develop each child strengths, interest, skills abilities and knowledge to extend their learning. I also believe that children learn through play.

I will provide opportunities for children to explore, discover, create and imagine. I believe that environment plays a major role in the success of an early childhood program. It should enhance the children’s interest in all developmental domains.

In planning my program, I would strive for a developmentally appropriate, child centred atmosphere where children have the opportunity to master new challenges through activities and topic that are meaningful to them, thus building their self-esteem as they develop and learn.
