Our educators

Our team of educators is dedicated to building strong, trusting relationships with every child and their family.

Our qualified teachers and educators come from diverse backgrounds and assist children to become lifelong learners by providing programs that promote:

A strong sense of identity
Connection and contribution to their world
A strong sense of wellbeing
Confident and involved learners
Effective communication
Scaffolding learning opportunities
A safe, caring and healthy environment
Cultural awareness

Responsive and meaningful interactions build trusting relationships that engage and support each child to feel secure, confident and included.

Each child is supported to build and maintain sensitive and responsive relationships.

Children are supported to collaborate, learn from and help each other.

BUSINESS OWNER

As an owner of the business, I have had experience in management and finance from a very young age growing up in the childcare industry. I studied Business management in France and I also have a commercial Pilots license. I first started working in the family business as a finance manager then pursued a career overseas managing Hotels.

Burnside Advanced Early Learning centre is a family owned business and as one of the owners I pride myself on providing our children high quality care, safe environment, ongoing growth and improvements to our facility.

Christina Davis

DIRECTOR & SUPERVISOR

I have Early childhood teaching qualifications with 29 years experience in the childcare industry and working as a Director in childcare. I have a great passion for Early Learning Childcare and the endless opportunities we can provide for children. I pride myself in having close relationships with children’s families and providing flexibility and understanding of their needs, for not only their children but their home and work life. I believe in setting a high standard with all my educators, so they can provide the best care for children and their families.
