At Mother Duck Enoggera, the focus of the educators is on reflective practice to ensure they understand all they can about children and their development; finding new and innovative ways to solve problems, engage in challenging tasks, and using information technology and print-based texts to find things out; giving children the gift of time to listen to their ideas and incorporate these into the curriculum; sustainable practices to teach the children how to be a valuable member of society; and teaching children skills beyond academics such as compassion, collaboration, empathy, kindness, grace and honesty.

The centre prides itself on the passionate long-term educators caring for the children. They continually offer professional development for the team and provide above-award remuneration. Some of the educators have been at the centre for over nine years.

As the Mother Duck Enoggera franchisee, I feel so lucky to work alongside kind families and their children, and my highly experienced and qualified educators every day. I feel proud of the safe, educational and happy environment that we have created here at Mother Duck Enoggera and love that I get to spend my days here.

Emma - Centre Director and Franchisee, Mother Duck Enoggera 

I am grateful to work in such a positive and welcoming environment where I can safely explore and deepen my knowledge about early childhood education and care. I love coming to work every day, knowing that I am working with a team of people who are passionate about what they do and are committed to building positive relationships with families and achieving positive outcomes for children.

Miss Olivia - Educator 

I love to work at Mother Duck because I feel supported, celebrated, and valued every day. I am encouraged and supported to further and deepen my knowledge of child development in a team environment. 

Miss Diana - Educator 

Within my role as Educational Leader, I am privileged to witness my colleagues constantly re-ignite their passions for early childhood education as we research child development together. I believe the way in which we approach our documentation at Mother Duck Enoggera directly results in our team working so positively together, and we are able to learn alongside children each day.
