I am a Sri Lankan, 30 years of age and a Permanent Resident of Australia. I am a Teacher by profession with 9 years of experience in Pre-school and Primary School in Sri Lanka. I am presently working as an Early Childhood Educator and have 12 months experience in the Childcare field in Australia.

I have worked with children between the ages of 2 months - 15 years and have taught students with developmental delays and other special needs in Sri Lanka. My work entailed teaching English, Sinhala, Mathematics, Environmental Studies, Life Skills and Art & Handcraft to slow learners and children with learning disabilities, and planning, organizing and supervising many programmes and activities for children in a safe, fun, interesting and supportive leaning environment.
I have also provided personalized care for children in long day care and occasional care in Australia, such as supporting them with their gross & fine motor skills, communication skills, social skills, emotional skills, life skills, etc. I have also been a Private Educational Therapist and worked very closely with parents and families of children with special needs and done home visits in helping children with their education and other developmental needs and skills.
I love caring for children and supporting them in their overall development, whilst ensuring their safety, wellbeing and happiness.
