   <p>I have been working in early learning since 2009 and joined Forestville Early Learning Centre as the centre manager in 2023. My experience began with running my family daycare when my children were young, and I later transitioned to centre-based long daycare.  <\/p> <p>Throughout my career, I&#8217;ve learned that every child is unique and learns at their own pace. Children exhibit remarkable resilience and persistence despite challenges. As educators, we support their interests and learning, helping them achieve their goals. As a centre manager, I prioritise providing a safe, secure environment and high-quality education. I encourage a growth mindset, fostering children\u2019s resilience by praising effort, celebrating progress, and reframing mistakes as learning opportunities. My aim is to instil knowledge and a love for learning, empowering children to become lifelong learners who confidently embrace challenges. Ultimately, I strive to inspire and guide children to discover their strengths, navigate obstacles, and develop the skills and mindset needed to thrive in academics and life as compassionate, curious, and confident individuals. <\/p> <p>Forestville Early Learning Centre boasts a long-standing team of highly qualified educators, many of whom have been with the centre for over five years and live locally. Their familiarity with the community enables them to communicate confidently with families. Our team is dedicated and passionate about children&#8217;s development and learning. <\/p> <p>We build strong relationships with families by maintaining regular, open lines of communication. We share information about children&#8217;s progress, activities, and any concerns through newsletters, emails, and the Xplor app. I actively listen to parents&#8217; concerns, suggestions, and feedback, respecting their insights and involving them in decision-making processes regarding their child&#8217;s education and care. <\/p> <p>We look forward to welcoming you to our Forestville early education centre.<\/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\/Nattanade_forestville_ect_1b742f615e.jpg\">\n                                                        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/api.g8education.edu.au\/\/uploads\/Nattanade_forestville_ect_1b742f615e.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\">Nattanade<\/p>\n                                                <h3 class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__subtitle\">Early Childhood Teacher                                                <\/h3>\n                                                                                                    <p class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__year\">\n                                                        <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-calendar\"><\/i>\n                                                        17 years with our centre\n                                                    <\/p>\n                                                                                                                                                    <ul class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__qualifications\">\n                                                                                                                    <li>\n                                                                <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-square-academic-cap\"><\/i>\n                                                                <span>Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood)<\/span>\n                                                            <\/li>\n                                                                                                            <\/ul>\n                                                                                                <div class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__short-content\">\n                                                    &#8220;My approach is centred around the power of positive words, fostering confidence, and nurturing a love of learning in every child.&#8221;                                                <\/div>\n                                                                                                    <div\n                                                        class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__full-content\">\n                                                        <p>I have been working at Forestville ELC since 2009.

By creating a warm and supportive environment, I aim to help children feel loved, valued, secure, and safe as they grow.<\/p> <p>My goal is to ensure that every child transitions smoothly into school, equipped with the skills and mindset needed for a lifelong journey of learning.<\/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_6924f65eb51f7\" 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_67fefb70cd45d\" 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 Forestville Preschool&#8217;s Philosophy<\/h2>\n                                                                                        <div class=\"g8-image-content__content g8-block-wysiwyg\"><p>Our philosophy is rooted in the belief that every child is a capable and curious learner.

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?
