Service Manager
Hello, my name is Sharon Brooks and I am the Service Manager for Busy Bees at Mitchelton. I have been very fortunate to work in the Early Childhood Education and Care sector now for 14 years.
I started my working career in an office environment and worked in finance for 20 years. I recognised that I had a desire to work with children and when I had my own child, this highlighted it further. This developed into a successful family day care business that I owned in England for ten years, until I left for Australia. I was very proud when I was rated ‘Outstanding’ by the UK licencing body, OFSTED.
My mission as a Service Manager is to support and provide the best early learning environment where all children can thrive, and to forge warm and nurturing relationships with children and their families. I also believe that professional development supports continuous improvement for Educators, children and families alike.
I advocate for children to learn through play, in an environment which they can feel safe and secure. We’re all far more interested in things if we’re having fun, after all! I love helping children to investigate their environment and explore their boundaries. Under my care, I believe children are encouraged to believe that “they can.”
I look forward to meeting you and your family.
In the spirit of reconciliation, Busy Bees Early Learning acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and recognises First Nations peoples’ continued cultural and spiritual connections to land, sea, sky and community. We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
