Emily Pettett

Early in my career I fell in love with the inquisitive nature of children and was intrigued by their view of the world.  I commenced at Guardian as room leader and was soon selected for a Director in Training role. To gain more knowledge around my career path, I commenced my Advanced Diploma which gave me a greater understanding of the early learning sector.

I was lucky enough to visit Reggio Emilia in Italy which was the birth place of approach in which Guardian as a company is inspired.  This was insightful, motivating, eye opening and exciting.

The most rewarding part of being an early childhood educator is seeing a child hypothesis their ideas and being able to scaffold their visions through play and interactions with others.  It’s gratifying to watch the children grow and develop through their investigation and research process where they source many different answers to a thought provoking question.   I also gain inspiration from my colleagues many cultures, backgrounds and ideas colliding to create amazing play spaces and learning opportunities for children.

At Guardian, we respect the importance of children being active participants in the community – both inside and outside the centre.  I would love to grow a bond with the neighbouring fruit market so the children can regularly visit and “shop” for ingredients for our kitchen.  We could also develop a recycling program with local businesses, where the businesses would bring recyclables to the centre for the children to use as loose part play, art creations and in building areas to help reduce landfill.
