What are your thoughts?

Do you think under the roofing being used incorrectly was to blame here?

An approved provider in Queensland has been fined $24,000 after an inexperienced educator was left with 5 babies while the lead educator was taking a lunch break.

The educator fed one of the children the incorrect baby formula which led to the child having an anaphylactic reaction.

Who can relate?? 🤣🤣

😮‍💨Oh the endless pieces of advice educators receive about how to support children’s behaviour. The issue is children’s development is a marathon and not a sprint - strategies and guidance takes time. Not only that but each child has an individual track in which they will run with you alongside them. 😮‍💨 Asking for support around behaviour online can be tricky as each case can be so individual requiring a specific set of strategies to be used. 🤍 My wish is that all educators have consistent mentoring and training within the classroom to continue this work as it plays such an important part in child development. . . . #earlychildhoodeducation #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducator #eyfsteacher #daycareteacher #childcareprovider #familydaycare #educatorsofinstagram #prek #prekteacher #childdevelopment #selfregulation #childbehaviour

Did you know that 70% of early learning services operate commercially?

As renowned child health researcher, Professor Fiona Stanley explained The Australian today, this means that services are often concentrated in wealthier areas, leaving behind those who most need support.

The Federal Government needs to step in and make accessing early learning a legal right - rather than something that depends on how much money your parents make or where you live.

As an Educator or Teacher in Australia and New Zealand, what message are you looking for on merchandise?

We'll go first...........EYLF on a shelf Christmas shirt.

Did you hear that there is currently a case infront of Fair Work to create a bold new plan to make feminized sectors more fairly paid??

What would equal pay and recognition for “feminized sectors” like the ECEC mean to you??

2024 could be the year the Fair Work umpire properly values women’s work – here’s how The Fair Work Commission has been given new tools. Among them is the power to eliminate gender-based undervaluation of work in entire awards and groups of awards.

……..and I drive home in silence 🤣🤣

The teacher transformation we all feel.✨ #teachers

Thank you for everyone for joining. Apologies for the tech issues.
Very interesting budget.

We have committed to funding wage growth for the ECEC but no details as yet.

This is only the start of our journey and we will keep the pressure up on ensure this uplift in wages is sector wide!

Sorry - Tech issues
