Hi I’m Mel.
I absolutely adore children and am a very passionate cook. I love creating menu’s and getting children excited about eating healthy, yummy food. I only cook and serve food which I would serve to my own family, which include my fussy eight year old daughter. I’m so happy to be apart of the KingKids Rowville team and looking forward to introducing to the children new and delicious food.
As the Centre Director of KingKids Rowville, I am responsible for the day to day running of our service. I am a working mother with two children and understand the importance of quality care. I started my journey with KingKids 5 years ago, where I have had many opportunities to advance my skills as an Educator. I am passionate about making a difference in the childcare industry, promoting a stimulating environment for children to learn that is safe and fun. Our environment at Rowville is positive, where educators work together with the community, families, co-educators and children to further develop their own skills and teaching practices

As an Early Childhood Educator, I would like to help children to grow in self-confidence. To do this successfully I believe we must provide a rich environment where learning can take place. Through play I believe children learn to develop a very positive self- concept of themselves. I would like to be able to look back at the end of my teaching year and say with satisfaction my centre has provided children with a secure and stimulating environment that children have enjoyed learning in
