Hi, my name is Aman and I have been working in early childhood for last 8 years. We moved to Eltham due to my son’s high school which makes me proud to be part of this beautiful community. I am multilingual with 3 years of experience teaching Punjabi.

I believe it is important to recognise the difference in children such as their background, abilities, interests and learning styles. My role is to help guide, facilitate and scaffold children in their learning through play. I recognise the importance of family involvement and in building positive relationships with them to further support their child’s development and growth.

In my free time, I enjoy cooking, gardening and spending time with my family. I love travelling and trying different cuisines. 

Hi, I am Amie and I work in both the 3 and 4 year old groups, which I feel gives a good connection for the children and families. I really love the community feel of a sessional kindergarten and strongly believe it helps build good relationships between the families and the kinder.

I have worked in Early Childhood for over 20 years in a variety of settings and have completed a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care. I believe that children learn through play and I feel that by offering a play based program that includes all areas of development, Educators are helping to foster each child’s interests. This helps children to become independent learners.

I look forward to getting to know each child and to assist them in their learning journey.

My name is Disna and I’ve been a kindergarten teacher for 18 years, having worked in Australia, New Zealand and the Middle East, I bring a wealth of experience and knowledge. I’m privileged and honoured to share my experience with the Wahroonga children.

I believe strongly in building partnerships with children, families and staff – fundamental to providing quality care and learning.

I also believe in a safe, developmentally appropriate environment for all children. My goal is to support children’s desires to become lifelong learners.

I encourage families to be actively involved in their child’s interests and development. I’m really looking forward to getting to know your child.

My name is Jayde. I have been working in the early childhood sector for the last 3 years, following the birth of my youngest I changed careers chasing my dreams to work with children. While working I completed my diploma of early childhood and have now started studying my Bachelor of Early Childhood Education at La Trobe University with the hope of becoming a kindergarten teacher in the future. 

I have found such a passion being part of a child’s learning journey. I believe the early years are such a crucial and important phase of a child’s life that provides a foundation for their future.  I value each child’s uniqueness and support them to follow their interests in their learning. 

I live with my husband Nick, our 2 children Grace and Ollie and our dog Rusty. We are huge Disney fans and enjoy adventures together on weekends. 

I am so excited to be part of the Wahroonga team and look forward to meeting everyone.

My name is Kelly and I am a diploma qualified educator and I work in the 3-year-old group and the Extended Care Program at Wahroonga Preschool. I have worked in the early childhood industry the last 5 years, both in long day care and sessional kindergarten.

I believe that as an early year’s educator, it is my role to ensure all children feel valued, respected, safe and have a sense of belonging while at kinder. I am passionate about providing an environment that is welcoming, inviting and unique to each child. I believe children learn best through play, so I
love to create experiences that are meaningful, creative and provide an opportunity to achieve and challenge their skills all whilst having FUN!

Outside of work I am a busy mum to 4 children, Lily-May, Harrison, Darcy and Pippa. I love to go camping and exploring the great outdoors. I also love baking sweet treats at home, which never last too long! I love going to the football and watching my favourite team, North Melbourne! I look forward to helping your child build lasting memories during their time at kinder.
