Meet Cheryl, Your Centre Supervisor
Hi, my name is Cheryl and I am the Nominated Supervisor of Little Peoples Ingleburn.
I started my Little Peoples Journey as a Diploma Trained Educator in 2016, while I was studying a Bachelor of Education (Birth to five years) at Charles Sturt University and working in a casual role in all aspects of the centre (Cook, Babies, Toddlers and Pre-schoolers).
After completing my University degree, I then began my lead Educator role in the Babies room in 2020 and experiencing the early learning room briefly before beginning my role as Educational leader and became Nominated Supervisor in 2022 for the first time and currently working in the same role, as lead Educator in the Pre-school Room and the transition to school educator.
Through these experiences, I have established a thorough understanding and knowledge of centre values, team culture and being able to implement meaningful and inviting learning environments for all children, families and educators to experience.
As Nominated supervisor, I strive to reflect these values to my team of educators and continue to reflect the values and ideas of others within our community. As an educator, I strive to build a centre based on the principles of integrity, responsibility and community, through guiding through learning experiences, building meaningful relationships, and growing together in our Little Peoples Community.
Our nurturing and dedicated team of educators plan and deliver meaningful, interest-based programs in which we provide experiences which learn through play. We provide a School readiness program, work on community project experiences which include sustainability, science and gardening which are ongoing, including incursions that visit our centre throughout the year. We engage in community celebrations and welcome family cultural celebrations, thus enabling your child to have a sense of belonging at our centre and assists in meeting their developmental milestones and achieve personal and group goals every year. All our learning environments are set up with purpose to allow for optimal learning with these experiences, as well as reflect the intentional and interest-based plans and education of the children.
As I continue my journey here at Ingleburn Little Peoples, our team would like to invite you join our Little Peoples family journey to continue our growth and community building in the future.
