Ellie-mae Deen

Director

(Diploma Qualified & Nominated Supervisor)

I Have been the Director of Whitfords Occasional Child Care Centre since November 2022.

My history in Childcare goes back to 2016, when I first enrolled into Tafe to complete my cert 3. I then progressed into completing my Diploma at the age of 17. I started my first job as an assistant educator, working alongside a big team. I have experience in working as a room leader and also a 2ic, all within a 2-year gap. Working in Childcare for a few weeks made me discover my passion in working with children and helping them grow.
