Hello, I’m Rachael Bawden, and I’ve been a part of Ngala Early Learning Perth Airport since 2013. Initially joining as an Early Childhood Teacher, I transitioned into the role of Service Coordinator in 2015. I hold a Graduate Diploma in Children’s Services (Children and Family Studies), a Masters in Infant Mental Health, and a Graduate Certificate in Human Resource Management.
My professional passion revolves around nurturing relationships. I firmly believe that children thrive within the context of their primary caregiving relationships, and early childhood educators play a pivotal role in fostering these bonds.
My mission is to cultivate an environment where all children, families, and staff members feel safe and supported. I understand that providing this foundation of security is essential for fostering growth and development in every individual.
I look forward to welcoming you and your family to our beautiful service.
The last 18 months that Luke has spent with Amy and Ha has been so great for him. The love and care that they show towards the children in their room has been incredible. He has had the best time being an Investigator and I want to thank them both for all of the fun times, cuddles and snacks they’ve shared with Luke. He’s grown from a squishy little 5.5 month old into a cheeky, chatty and confident 4.5 year old who loves his days at daycare.
We have been really happy with Ngala airport. They are in prompt contact if something occurs. They are fantastic communicators, the staff are warm and caring and most importantly our children are really happy there.
