Service Manager

About Therese Tompson

Therese won the Moreton Bay Region Employee of The Year Award 2021.

I view children as competent, capable, active and constructive beings that are dependent upon adults or more informed peers for learning, education and care. I believe that young children need time to mature and develop knowledge of themselves in their world prior to the commencement of formal education.

I will encourage and support children’s interests and personal styles of learning, patiently allowing them to develop naturally and biologically.Having been in the childcare industry for 30 years in both NSW and QLD, I take on a mentoring role with respect to children’s growth and development allowing them to naturally unfold. I encourage family involvement in our program and regular information exchange between home and our child care setting.

I also encourage the development of social networks between children and families. I believe in respect of individual differences as they relate to ability, gender, economic status, ethnicity and religion. I have a commitment to the next generation to teach and guide ecological and environmentally sustainable practices.
I hold an Advanced Diploma in Children’s Services and have worked in the Early Learning Sector for 40 years. I have been with Sesame Lane for 20 years, so you can be assured of continuity of care for all children under my charge. In my role as Service Manager, I have a responsibility to provide high quality care to children, their families, my fellow Educators, our management team and the community of Clontarf and Redcliffe.

I will uphold Sesame Lane’s principals, values and promise to nurture and encourage Healthy Happy Learners.

Testimonials

“Our family has adored our time with everyone there, especially Amanda and Michelle who have done so much for both of our children. I would not have managed 3 under 3 without all of your help! Thank you so very much.”
– Much love, The Robertsons

“Sesame Lane just keeps getting better and better. It is going to be a very sad day when we have to say goodbye at the end of the year. All the childcare staff at Clontarf brighten not only my daughters day but mine too. Walking into Clontarf in the morning is like getting a warm hug. The staff are genuinely interested in how the whole family is and start our day off in a positive manner every day. After 11 years in the childcare system from Sydney to the Gold Coast and finally to the peninsula, Sesame Lane is the best family facility we have encountered by far. The past 3.5 years have been the best years of our lives. My only regret is that we didn’t find you earlier.”
– The Meredith Family

Meet the Clontarf Team

Katie Lloyd Educational Leader

When working with children these 5 words are my vision: Love, Nurture, Allow, Trust and Believe.
These 5 words are the foundation for children, their learning, my program and the environment in which I create to foster and enhance children’s learning. I believe each child is a person to love, nurture, respect, trust and believe in.

As an Educational leader I love to mentor and empower educators to be the best they can be and be the best for the children in our care. As an educator I love being a part of building the foundations with children to become lifelong learners. Watching and being a part of a child’s first 5 years is an honour.

Guided by Philosophies, enhanced through leadership and mentoring we develop the use of play, relationships and the NQF to lay the foundations for children’s learning.

Kym Eason Kindergarten Teacher

I love to encourage the children in my care to dream – dreams lead to big ideas and inspire children to step beyond their comfort zone.

I am passionate about watching and helping children try their best and experience that light that goes into their eyes when a concept clicks for them. I enjoy working in partnerships with families to prepare children for the big step to prep, focusing on social, emotional and physical development.

I have lead many classes of Kindergarten children from their first term of Kindergarten throughout the year, supporting each one of them every step of the way. Each child is unique and so their learning should be too. Kindergarten graduation is so bitter sweet. I am always so proud of how far each child in the class has come, it’s astronomical how much they develop and grow in that one year. When graduation rolls around, I’m always a little sad to send my class off to school because the bonds that are formed in that year are so strong.

Another highlight of my career has been when my Kindergarten children and families come back the next year when they start school and sometimes even the year after to say hello and show off their school uniforms and new skills they’ve learnt. My job is so rewarding, I’m a very lucky and passionate Teacher.
