dedicated to early childhood education since 2009, which is also the year I started at St Marina. My journey in early childhood education has been incredibly fulfilling. I am passionate about helping and caring for children with diverse interests, strengths, and learning styles. I aim to be adaptable and flexible with my teaching style, ensuring every child feels seen and supported. I am a strong advocate for play-based learning, using fun and engaging methods to encourage learning. I strive to provide a safe, supportive, and stimulating environment where children can freely explore their curiosities and knowledge. <\/p> <p>When explaining to families the benefits of attending a dedicated early childhood education and care centre compared to learning at home, I highlight the unique advantages. These include being part of a wider community, participating in educational excursions and incursions, and benefiting from a curriculum designed to support cognitive, social, emotional, and physical growth. Children also develop essential soft skills, such as communication, teamwork, and interpersonal skills, through consistent interaction with peers.<\/p> <p>My amazing team consists of incredible educators and teachers with varying experiences, knowledge, skills, and teaching philosophies. We are united in our dedication to improving the lives of the children we teach and care for. Communication and teamwork are fundamental to our success and smooth operations at our Parramatta centre.<\/p> <p>Support for families is fostered through open communication, regular updates, and active involvement in their child&#8217;s learning journey. We host family events, workshops, and meetings to foster a sense of community and partnership. By listening to their concerns, celebrating their child&#8217;s achievements, and being accessible and responsive, we build strong, trusting relationships with our families.<\/p> <p>I welcome your family to join our wonderful early education centre in Parramatta.<\/p>                                                    <\/div>\n                                                                                                            <a href=\"#\" class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__read-more\"><span>Read <span\n                                                                    class=\"more\">more<\/span><span class=\"less\">less<\/span><\/span><\/a>\n                                                                                                                                                <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                                                            <div class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide swiper-slide\">\n                                                                                            <div class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__photo-container\">\n                                                    <picture class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__photo\">\n                                                        <source media=\"(min-width: 768px)\"\n                                                            srcset=\"https:\/\/api.g8education.edu.au\/\/uploads\/Jessica_st_marina_elc_cm_f4a2ad1506.jpg\">\n                                                        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/api.g8education.edu.au\/\/uploads\/Jessica_st_marina_elc_cm_f4a2ad1506.jpg\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n                                                    <\/picture>\n                                                <\/div>\n                                            \n                                            <div\n                                                class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__content-container\">\n                                                <p class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__name\">Jessica<\/p>\n                                                <h3 class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__subtitle\">                                                <\/h3>\n                                                                                                                                                    <ul class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__qualifications\">\n                                                                                                                    <li>\n                                                                <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-square-academic-cap\"><\/i>\n                                                                <span>Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care<\/span>\n                                                            <\/li>\n                                                                                                            <\/ul>\n                                                                                                <div class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__short-content\">\n                                                    &#8220;I am passionate about supporting children to feel safe, confident, and capable. &#8221;                                                <\/div>\n                                                                                                    <div\n                                                        class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__full-content\">\n                                                        <p>I began working in early childhood education in 2017 and joined St Marina Early Learning Centre Parramatta in 2026. I bring experience working with children aged 0-5 in a variety of roles, including Educator and Educational Leader. What I love most about this job is the impact we have on both children and families. Building strong relationships, supporting children\u2019s growth, and creating a safe, positive environment are all incredibly rewarding. I also enjoy supporting and mentoring educators, which has become an important part of my role.<\/p> <p>Throughout my career, I have learned that every child is unique and develops at their own pace. This has shaped my approach to be flexible and responsive to each child\u2019s individual needs. I place a strong focus on building secure relationships, as these are essential for children\u2019s confidence and learning, and I adapt experiences to suit their interests and developmental stage. I am passionate about supporting children to feel safe, confident, and capable. <\/p> <p>When speaking with families, I explain that while learning at home is important, early childhood education and care provides structured, play-based learning guided by trained educators. In a centre environment, children build key life skills such as communication, sharing, and forming relationships with peers. Our team is long-standing and consistent, with some educators having been with the centre for over 10 years. We also have a diverse team with a range of cultural backgrounds, which enriches our environment and supports inclusive practices.<\/p> <p>Building strong relationships with families is central to my role. I focus on open, honest, and respectful communication so families feel heard and involved in their child\u2019s learning. By being approachable and taking the time to understand each family\u2019s needs, values, and culture, I aim to build trust and create strong partnerships that support every child\u2019s development.<\/p> <p><\/p>                                                    <\/div>\n                                                                                                            <a href=\"#\" class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__read-more\"><span>Read <span\n                                                                    class=\"more\">more<\/span><span class=\"less\">less<\/span><\/span><\/a>\n                                                                                                                                                <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                                                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"g8-slider-pagination-container\">\n                                <div class=\"g8-centre-managers__pagination g8-slider-pagination\"><\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                                                            <div class=\"g8-centre-managers__prev-button\"><i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-round-arrow-left\"><\/i><\/div>\n                                <div class=\"g8-centre-managers__next-button\"><i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-round-arrow-right\"><\/i><\/div>\n                            \n                                                <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-star-two\"><\/i>\n                        <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-three-lines\"><\/i>\n                        <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-book\"><\/i>\n                        <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-music\"><\/i>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n\n    <section id=\"g8-promotional-banner_0_6924f6da4042b\" class=\"g8-promotional-banner  \">\n        <div class=\"g8-container\">\n            <div class=\"g8-row\">\n                <div class=\"g8-col\">\n                    <div class=\"g8-promotional-banner__container g8-block-container\">\n                                                                                    <div class=\"g8-promotional-banner__banner\">\n                                                                                                                        <a href=\"\/family-information\/funded-kindergarten-preschool\/nsw\" target=\"\" title=\"Learn more about NSW preschool funding\">\n                                                                                        <picture class=\"g8-promotional-banner__image\"><source media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.earlylearningservices.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/g8_nsw_preschool_webbanners_sept2025-1024x223.png\"><source media=\"(min-width: 320px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.earlylearningservices.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/g8_nsw_preschool_webbanners_sept2025-500x109.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.earlylearningservices.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/g8_nsw_preschool_webbanners_sept2025.png\" alt=\"g8_nsw_preschool_webbanners_sept2025.png\" width=\"1320\" height=\"287\"loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/picture>                                                                                        <\/a>\n                                                                                                                                                <\/div>\n                                                                        <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n\n    <section id=\"g8-image-content_8_67f4a640e656b\" class=\"g8-image-content g8-block-container  \">\n        <div class=\"g8-container\">\n            <div class=\"g8-row\">\n                <div class=\"g8-col\">\n                    <div class=\"g8-image-content__container full no-image\">\n                        <div class=\"g8-image-content__inner-container--image\">\n                                                                                                                                        <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"g8-image-content__inner-container--content\">\n                                                                                        <h2 class=\"g8-image-content__title g8-block-subtitle\">Our Parramatta Preschool&#8217;s philosophy<\/h2>\n                                                                                        <div class=\"g8-image-content__content g8-block-wysiwyg\"><p>At our St Marina Preschool in Parramatta, our commitment is to holistic development guided by strong values.

This initiative provides financial support to community preschools, mobile preschools, and long day care services.<\/p>\n<p>In New South Wales, preschool has been extended to support both three-year-old and four-year-old children. This means two years of play-based learning. \u201cThe Start Strong\u201d program ensures that children aged 3-5 can access 600 hours of quality preschool education annually. The program includes fee relief funding to help make early childhood education more affordable for families.<\/p>\n<p>At Early Learning Services and other G8 Education centres, our preschool program is the perfect way to support your child\u2019s learning, development, and well-being for now, at school and beyond. We use an approved learning framework and support individualised learning in a variety of curriculum areas, including numeracy, oral language and literacy, emotional and social development, and self-regulation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n                                                                                                                        <div

They usually run during school term and school hours, meaning the program runs for 40 weeks per year, with most sessions finishing up around 2 pm, over 2-3 days per week.<\/p>\n<p>Funding and fees for sessional preschool programs may vary, and meals are not covered. Age requirements still apply depending on the state or territory you are in.<\/p>\n<p>The preschool program is also offered in long day care centres. Most long day care centres are open from 7:00 AM. to 6:00 PM, Monday to Friday with flexible drop-off\/pick-up times to better accommodate busy working families. Long day care centres run 52 weeks per year, meaning your child would not miss out on valuable learning opportunities during school holidays.<\/p>\n<p>Nutritional meals and snacks are covered in long day care centres, so you don\u2019t have to worry about packing lunches.<\/p>\n<p>Child Care Subsidy still applies when your child attends the preschool programs offered in long day care services. NSW\u2019s funding options for preschool can be combined with your Child Care Subsidy savings, making preschool more affordable for your family.<\/p>\n<p>Essentially, there is no difference between the curriculums adopted by long day care and sessional preschool providers. They are both run by qualified early childhood teachers, and they all align with Early Years Learning Framework, focusing on supporting individual children\u2019s development, interests and needs through play-based and intentional learning experiences.<\/p>\n<p>If your child is already settled at a long day care centre, they have the opportunity to stay in a familiar environment, transitioning together with their friends.<\/p>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n                                                                    <div class=\"g8-accordion__item accordion-item\">\n                                        <h2 class=\"g8-accordion__item__header accordion-header\">\n                                            <button class=\"g8-accordion__item__header__button accordion-button collapsed\" type=\"button\" data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\" data-bs-target=\"#flush-collapse-g8-accordion_20_66b99f2477b90-1\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"flush-collapse-g8-accordion_20_66b99f2477b90-1\">\n                                                <span class=\"g8-accordion__item__title\">What age should my child start preschool?<\/span>\n                                                <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-alt-arrow-down\"><\/i>\n                                            <\/button>\n                                        <\/h2>\n                                        <div id=\"flush-collapse-g8-accordion_20_66b99f2477b90-1\" class=\"accordion-collapse collapse\" data-bs-parent=\"#g8-accordion_20_66b99f2477b90\">\n                                            <div class=\"g8-accordion__item__content g8-block-wysiwyg\">\n                                                <p>Children can start preschool in the year they turn four by July 31. <\/p>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n                                                                    <div class=\"g8-accordion__item accordion-item\">\n                                        <h2 class=\"g8-accordion__item__header accordion-header\">\n                                            <button class=\"g8-accordion__item__header__button accordion-button collapsed\" type=\"button\" data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\" data-bs-target=\"#flush-collapse-g8-accordion_20_66b99f2477b90-2\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"flush-collapse-g8-accordion_20_66b99f2477b90-2\">\n                                                <span class=\"g8-accordion__item__title\">How much is the fee relief payment?

They usually run during school term and school hours, meaning the program runs for 40 weeks per year, with most sessions finishing up around 2 pm, over 2-3 days per week.\\nFunding and fees for sessional preschool programs may vary, and meals are not covered. Age requirements still apply depending on the state or territory you are in.\\nThe preschool program is also offered in long day care centres. Most long day care centres are open from 7:00 AM. to 6:00 PM, Monday to Friday with flexible drop-off\\\/pick-up times to better accommodate busy working families. Long day care centres run 52 weeks per year, meaning your child would not miss out on valuable learning opportunities during school holidays.\\nNutritional meals and snacks are covered in long day care centres, so you don\\u2019t have to worry about packing lunches.\\nChild Care Subsidy still applies when your child attends the preschool programs offered in long day care services. NSW\\u2019s funding options for preschool can be combined with your Child Care Subsidy savings, making preschool more affordable for your family.\\nEssentially, there is no difference between the curriculums adopted by long day care and sessional preschool providers. They are both run by qualified early childhood teachers, and they all align with Early Years Learning Framework, focusing on supporting individual children\\u2019s development, interests and needs through play-based and intentional learning experiences.\\nIf your child is already settled at a long day care centre, they have the opportunity to stay in a familiar environment, transitioning together with their friends.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What age should my child start preschool?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Children can start preschool in the year they turn four by July 31.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How much is the fee relief payment?
