Service Manager

Trina Curnuck

Hi, my name is Trina and I’m the Service Manager at Busy Bees at Mirrabooka. I have worked in the Early Childhood sector for 30 years. I hold a Diploma in Children’s Services, a Certificate III and Certificate 4 in Early Childhood Education, and have completed multiple trainings on behaviour guidance. I feel strongly about child protection and the right of every child to feel safe, secure and loved.

I have a passion for teaching and watching children learn and grow in our care. I feel privileged to be part of each child’s learning journey, and it puts a smile on my face every day. Recently, my passion has extended into mentoring and working with the Educators at our Service to help them grow to their full potential and progress in their professional journeys.

As a Service Manager, building trusting and reciprocal relationships with Families is very important to me. I like to know that all children and Families at Mirrabooka feel safe and welcome, and believe that through respectful relationships we can provide the highest quality care for our children.

Albert Einstein said “play is the highest form of research” and I’m still researching.
