25.01.2022 Meet the Team Monday! Meet Diana! Or as she is affectionately known as... Dee! Dee joined us mid last year, and has been a fun, dedicated, and welcome addition to our team! You can often hear Dee making her fellow team members (and children) laugh during the day with her funny antics!... While Dee holds her Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care, she is currently studying her Diploma to further her knowledge and career. Dee is a strong believer in every child's right to equitable opportunities, and strives to ensure each and every child has the same opportunity to succeed and thrive in their early years, and further into their lives.

Outside of work I love to spend some time with family and friends.
