Meet our creche staff

A little bit more about our Creche Attendant, Dawn

Qualifications:

• Provide First Aid & CPR 

Why you enjoy working in the crèche:

I love seeing the children grow from babies to crawling, then, walking, and then go to kindy, pre-primary, junior school, then high school. I feel privileged to be just a small part of their lives. To also build friendly relationships with the mums, and to work with great teams of ladies in the creche, (both past and present), and then have the children come in to see me when they are too old to attend creche. Sometimes, the cycle begins again, with the mums having more children, and to be part of the new generation of families all over again, is lovely and sometimes quite a humbling experience.

How long have you been working in the crèche:

Over 25 years! Seen a lot of generations of families come and go, and children that are now in primary school and still come to see me in the school holidays and give me hugs, which is lovely, and seeing parents in the café area who always acknowledge me, even if their children no longer come to crèche.

Hobbies:

I love supporting the West Coast Eagles, spending time with our grandsons, catching up with friends, and enjoying an ice-cream (now and again). I like nature programs (especially when lions are in them) and comedy/love story movies, and crime programs (who did it).
