ABOUT US

Taigum Kids Early Learning Centre has recently undergone the Assessment and Rating process in August 2015 and has been awarded the highest rating of ‘Exceeding the National Quality Standard’ by ACECQA. We treat each child with respect and dignity and allow children the freedom to grow as individuals. We endeavour to provide our children with a sense of Belonging where they feel accepted and are able to develop attachments and trust in their Educators. It’s our aim to work with all Families to provide a nurturing and stimulating early learning environment for all children in our care.

At Taigum Kids Early Learning Centre we embrace and celebrate all cultures. We provide ongoing support for all families through the transition from home into their new learning environment within the child care setting. At Taigum Kids we uphold and respect the importance of families being the first and foremost educators of their children. This is supported through the collection and sharing of information about each individual child between the families and the educators.

Centre Manager

Carol-Ann Wadsworth

I have been at Taigum Kids ELC 1 for quite a few years and I really believe that this is where I belong. My role as Centre Manager has been both inspirational and amazing. I always thought that I was meant to be in a studio with the children, but now I have the best of both worlds.

I started my career in 1995 and this pathway then extended to completing my Diploma, Advanced Diploma and also my Cert III in Training and Assessment. I have always been very passionate about my position in child care and I thoroughly enjoy every day. I truly believe that if you find a job you love, you will never have to work a day in your life.

Taigum Kids ELC is my second home and it is really important to me that our families feel that when they walk through our door. I believe that if we can give our families that “goose bump” feeling when they walk through our centre and meet our dedicated educators, than they need not look any further.
