Meet the Centre Manager – Garima Gupta

Pakenham Childcare Centre Manager - Creative GardenI began my career in early childhood education and care in 2009 and started working at Creative Garden Pakenham in 2021. I hold a Diploma in early childhood education and care, currently studying an advanced Diploma of Community Sector Management.

I am very passionate about education and believe that the early learning helps to introduce children to the world of lifelong learning.

Children are a wonder box and hold this treasure of learning and growing every day. This is our inspiration and also our philosophy.

I see myself not as the leader but a follower where we as educators follow their passion by not creating it but introducing them to new things. Active listening, being supportive, observing is the key to help the child on their journey of interest. As educators we just must Fan the Flame.

Our service is a home away from home where you will see your child not just being looked after but NURTURED.

We will not only look after your child safely while you work, but also inspire a lifelong love of learning. Research shows that early childhood education is one of the best ways to help your child develop the social, emotional, and cognitive skills they need to prepare for primary school and beyond. Our team provides high-quality early childhood education in a fun, caring and supportive environment. We provide children with social and cognitive experiences that help them become independent and develop a positive attitude to learning.

We have a multicultural, committed and long serving team. We are like one big family and believe in celebrating every culture and little things. We provide a second home like environment to our children and our team of caring and professional educators creating an environment that supports the learning, health and wellbeing of every child.

We believe in helping and guiding the family to find the right fit for their child and family. We understand how crucial it can be for first time parents to find the right childcare for their child. We endeavor to support the family right from the tour and assist them at every step.

Our families love to stop by at drop off and pick up and have a chat about their day and anything in general. They feel very supported and loved. Have a Cuppa with some ready to eat snack on your way out.

We believe in open communication and looking for the best for our children and families. We will listen to you walk with you and be there with you for any support.

Hear from our families

“My son has attended 3 years in Creative Garden Service. I had the best experience with their service. All of the educators are really lovely, professional and always happy to support you and you child in each way. Their program is based on children’s interests, skills and capabilities. My son has grown up so much after attending this service and today he is a confident learner in school. I love their four weeks rotating menu, which gives lots of variety of food. Their management is always happy for your feedback and supportive in each and every way. I had the greatest experience of my life with this service. They celebrate all of the cultural events to include everyone in their service. I can’t recommend anywhere else better than that.”

“I can honestly say that every educator is absolutely wonderful and I can’t thank you all enough for the care and love that you all put into looking after Tyler. There is one educator who seems to go above and beyond with Tyler and that’s Toni. If Tyler doesn’t want to go to daycare for any reason, I will always say to him ‘do you want to go and see Toni’ and his mood will instantly change. She is always happy, knows what’s happening, is interested in his development and encourages him to become independent. Although Tyler is no longer in the same room as Toni, he still has a close bond and Toni always takes the time to give him a big cuddle when he leaves for the day. I honestly couldn’t ask for a better group of people to care for Tyler, you are all amazing.”

“…In regards to the educators in Isla’s Toddler One room. I am extremely pleased with all of them- from how they greet us when we arrive, to the information they give me about Isla’s day when I pick her up. They always welcome her with big hello’s and even a cuddle if she is hesitant to leave me or is clingy. I also appreciate that they take the time to tell me how she has been during the day – the good and the bad. Isla took awhile to get used to creche and now seems, for the most part, quite fine with me leaving her in the mornings. She’s always singing and in such a good mood when we go home. I know she has learned a lot and that is a credit to each of the educators in her room. For these reasons, I have recommended Creative Gardens to all my friends looking  to put their kids in childcare.”

“Megan is one of the best kinder educators I have ever had the pleasure of talking with. Her communication is terrific and her bright and bubbly personality is wonderful.  My daughter Madisyn is always talking about Megan at the dinner table and all of the exciting things they do. I am grateful and thankful that my daughter is spending her last year before school with an educator like Megan.”

  • Lisa

 

“We’d like to thank you all of course, but a special mention to Megan. She has been there for my girls since the beginning and is always available for a chat. She always has a happy smile on her face and makes leaving chelsea at daycare a much easier experience. I know that Chelsea is in safe hands and she will have a great time with her.”
