Jindalee School Aged Care Program

Hi Families,

My journey in education began in 2007 at a small, 30-place service known as Kuluin OSHC on the Sunshine Coast. Initially, I viewed OSHC as a stepping stone while studying to become a high school Chemistry and Physics teacher. However, the more time I spent in the OSHC environment, the more I discovered a deep passion for working with children in this setting. This passion led me to put my university studies on hold and fully embrace a career in the OSHC sector.

I went on to complete my Certificate III in Children’s Services, followed by a Diploma in School Age Education and Care, to further develop my knowledge and qualifications in the field. Since then, I’ve never looked back. Taking on a leadership role at Kuluin at the young age of 18 and then making the move to JSACP in 2021 to become the assistant coordinator. I find immense fulfilment in supporting, guiding, and nurturing children as they grow, learn, and become the best version of themselves.

Outside of work, I have a strong passion for cricket — it’s by far my favourite sport. Over the years, I’ve played in a variety of teams and formats, including State-level indoor cricket (Under 18/Men’s A Grade) and at the National level in 20/20 cricket, where my team proudly finished as runners-up in a tournament that would have taken us to England.

I’m committed to creating a positive, safe, and engaging environment where every child feels valued and inspired to thrive.
