    A behind the scenes look into Early Learning - Olivia Scott & Emma Rattenbury

    Olivia Scott (Centre Director) and Emma Rattenbury (Educator of 20years) give you a sneak peak at what it's REALLY like when you leave your children at a QUALITY Early Learning service. Emma Rattenbury is an early childhood expert who provides insights into tricky behavior in childcare. She breaks down why these moments happen, what they mean developmentally, and how parents can work with educators to support kids through big emotions without shame, guilt, or fear. Rattenbury's work focuses on understanding children's behavior and advocating for inclusion that is practical, evidence-informed, and grounded in children's lived experience. In this episode we hope to give parents an honest, behind-the-scenes look at what happens inside a quality early learning centre and reassure them that learning extends far beyond play. Follow Emma!
