OSHC Manager
Emily
Hi everyone!
My name is Emily, and I’m the OSHC Manager here at Ellen Stirling OSHC! Before stepping into this role, I worked as Assistant OSHC Manager at Care for Kids OSHC, Malvern Springs, where I gained valuable experience supporting children, families, and educators.
I hold my Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care, and I’m passionate about creating a safe, inclusive, and engaging environment where every child feels valued and supported. I strongly believe in building positive relationships and encouraging children’s confidence, creativity, and sense of belonging.
I absolutely love getting involved in games and activities with the children, especially playing sports and getting a little competitive! I’m also very creative and enjoy things like arts and crafts and face painting, which are always lots of fun.
I am dedicated to providing high-quality care and working closely with families and the team to ensure the best outcomes for all children.
I look forward to getting to know you all and becoming part of this wonderful community. Please feel free to come and say hello anytime!
Warm regards,
Emily 💫

Stay Connected to Your Child's Day
We use Storypark to keep you close to what matters most.
At our centre, we believe families should feel connected to their child's learning journey - even when they can't be there. Through Storypark, you'll receive real-time updates, photos, and learning stories directly to your phone, giving you a window into your child's day.
From milestone moments to everyday experiences, Storypark keeps you informed, involved, and connected to your child's growth.
Nourished Beginnings
Healthy Meals & Nutrition
At Care for Kids, we provide nourishing, whole food meals to support children’s health and development. We partner with Nourished Beginnings, a Perth-based early childhood nutrition specialist, to deliver carefully planned menus using fresh ingredients with minimal processing, additives and added sugar.
Our whole food approach helps children develop a positive relationship with food by understanding where it comes from and the nourishment it provides. While ingredients may occasionally vary due to availability, we always ensure meals align as closely as possible with our healthy nutrition principles.
