Brooke O'Brien
Centre Director

My name is Brooke O'Brien. I have been a member of the team at Goodstart Early Learning Heatley for the past ten years, working as an Assistant and Group Leader before proudly taking on the role of Centre Director five years ago.

I have worked in the Childcare Industry for the past 17 years, completing my Advanced Diploma of Children's Services in September 2007. As a child care professional it is my role to ensure that each child's interests, developmental needs and individuality are catered for. In doing so I provide a warm, supportive and accepting environment so that each child's confidence, happiness and potential can be fostered. I believe that every child is a unique individual, each possessing different interests, developmental needs, family beliefs, values, customs and emotions.

At Goodstart Early Learning Heatley I strive to foster a spirit of participation between staff and parents so that all may work together to achieve the best outcomes for our children.
