Summary
Dynamic Childcare Director with extensive experience at Learning Care: excelling in safety regulations compliance and staff management. Proven track record in enhancing program quality and fostering strong family relationships. Adept at navigating subsidy compliance while mentoring a dedicated team to ensure a nurturing environment for children. I have been a Director for over 25 years and I know the experience I gained from that position will lead me into the role of Subsidy Consultant. I want to stay in the childcare field but move away from the Director role.
