Meet Your Centre Manager

Mardi Johnston

Service Manager / Nominated Supervisor

My vision for Astley Parade is to provide children, families and educators a community focused early learning environment that is warm, welcoming and homely, and one that embraces the natural environment. I believe the children should be respected as individuals and human beings in their own right, as functioning members of our society whose rights should be advocated. What I enjoy most about my job is working with families to results in better outcomes for the children.

I have a Diploma in Children’s Services and I have been working in childcare Education for 30 years and have been with Sesame Lane for 16 years. I have gone from an Educator, Lead Educator, Assistant Director and then to Service Manager 6 years ago.

I believe there is nothing more precious in our lives than our children and nothing more rewarding than watching them grow and develop through their Early Years and then prepared to go off to school. A rewarding part of my role is also the relationships that I get to build with the families.

Our North Lakes Kids Early Learning Centre

Sesame Lane North Lakes Astley Parade is a unique two-storey childcare centre with a Hamptons feel, conveniently situated along side of Supa IGA and United Medical Centres. Our North Lakes childcare facilities include our on-site full kitchen where our children’s chief makes all meals and snacks fresh every day, safe and fun playgrounds, and spacious rooms full of new resources for our children. We have a dedicated ‘seniors’ space where children 3 to 5 years old can socialise, learn and play with their peers freely on our second story with ocean views.

Happy Leaners, Happy Families

We’re delighted to share some of the wonderful feedback we have received from our North Lakes childcare, Astley Parade families. If your child is already enrolled and you have a moment, we’d love it if you’d leave a review too.

You also get a warm welcome from Nicola and the staff every morning which is lovely! The teachers are all incredible! I honestly wouldn’t take my 6 month old or 3 year old anywhere else! 10/10.”

Meet the Astley Parade Team

Lisa Holcroft Nursery Lead Educator

Qualification: Diploma in Early Childhood Education & Care

After moving from the United Kingdom to Australia 7 years ago I have found that the early years sector has been my passion. Since starting at Sesame Lane North Lakes Astley Parade, I have grown and learnt so much while studying my Certificate and Diploma. My two adult sons and my grandson have given me lots of experience of family life. Babies are my specialty, watching them and teaching them each day puts a smile on my face each and every day. I consider myself an expert at building relationships with both children and families and consider this essential in childcare when caring for such precious little children.
