Word from the centre manager

Centre Manager

My Name is Ali I have 17 years of experience in early childhood education; I hold my Diploma in Children’s Services. I’m dedicated to not only guiding children’s growth but also leading a passionate, skilled team of educators. As Centre Manager, I focus on fostering a collaborative, supportive environment where staff feel valued and empowered to deliver the best care and learning experiences. Together, we create a nurturing space where children thrive, and families feel confident in the care their little ones receive. I’m committed to continuously developing both our team and the centre to ensure every child has the opportunity to grow and learn to their fullest potential. Watching each child develop at their own pace, gaining confidence, curiosity, and independence—is the most rewarding part of what I do.

Word from the Director/Owner

Director/Owner

My name is Than, and I am a proud mother of two wonderful boys, aged 17 and 21. Alongside me on this journey is my incredible husband—my biggest supporter—who has stood by me every step of the way as I turned my lifelong dream into reality.

 

With over 15 years of experience in the early childhood industry, working in a variety of roles, I have always been passionate about the importance of early learning and care. Opening my own childcare centre has been a dream close to my heart for many years. Today, I am proud to say that dream has come true—right here in the heart of Moe.

 

Our centre is more than just a childcare facility; it is a community-focused space where relationships matter. We are committed to building strong, genuine partnerships within the Moe community. Our vision is to create a nurturing, inclusive environment where every child feels safe, supported, and inspired to grow.

 

I truly believe that we offer an excellent service—one that not only cares for and educates the younger generation of Moe and its surrounding areas, but also strengthens the fabric of our community. This is a place where families feel connected, where children are celebrated, and where we work hand in hand with the community to build a brighter future.
