Hi everyone, my name is Catherine. I am a mother of 2 wonderful children and hold a diploma qualification in Early Childhood Education. I have been working in this field for over 6 years. I believe that every child is unique and thrives through play as they reach critical developmental milestones. As Centre Manager Assistant and room leader in Simba Room at Little Lion Macquarie Centre, I view education as an art. I play an essential role in this journey, serving as a guide, attentive listener, and responsive advocate for each child’s needs. I also believe that building a strong connection with parents is crucial. We consistently communicate and celebrate each child’s strengths and acknowledge their growth at every stage of development.

As an Early Childhood Teacher and Educational Leader at Little Lion Early Learning Macquarie Park, I believe that every child is a unique, capable, and curious learner who is best supported through respectful, attentive, and individualised approaches that honour their uniqueness and potential. My philosophy is grounded in the belief that children are active participants in their own learning. Inspired by the Montessori approach and constructivist theory, I aim to provide hands-on, inquiry-based experiences that promote exploration and creativity. I value well-prepared and inclusive environments that support independence and meaningful engagement for all children. I also believe that strong, respectful relationships with families and colleagues are essential in creating a sense of belonging and continuity for children. I strive to lead with empathy and collaboration, fostering a shared vision of quality education that supports the holistic growth and wellbeing of every child.
Little Lion respects and values the big roles our Educators play in little people's lives. This is why we prioritise ensuring our teams have all the tools and support they need to strive in a positive environment!
We only hire Educators that have studied with reputable training organisations. This ensures that the children and families in our services receive only the highest standard of education and care.
Little Lion appreciates that Sydney is a community full of families with diverse backgrounds and needs. We ensure that our teams have diverse and unique skills to support every need!
Whether your child is just starting their learning journey or looking to build on existing skills, we are here to support them every step of the way.
