From our Director Jess Kelly

As a long time Early Childhood Educator and Teacher, I have developed a sound understanding of the needs of individual children and the diverse ways in which they learn and grow. I believe that when children are given the opportunity to make choices, feel respected and learn to respect others, that I am helping to mould a generation of citizens that are capable of making positive decisions and create change for the future.

Big Fat Smile’s values of collaboration, inclusion and child-centricity guide my interactions with our youngest members of society, as I empower them to have a voice, work together and respect the ideas of others.

My role as a director is to create a culture of learning, where our educators are encouraged and supported to continually gain more knowledge. This allows us to go into the environment armed with the most recent research and understandings of children learning and development.

My professional pedagogy is influenced by theorists and Early Childhood experts such as Emmi Pikler, Glen Cooper, Bert Powell and Kent Hoffman, who guide me to use respectful practices and provide children with a safe and secure environment to give them the confidence to explore and learn

What Parents are Saying About Woronora Heights Community Preschool

“Our family has been with Big Fat Smile for nearly 8 years. We feel that our kids have been well looked after and cared for without a doubt. I can’t say we ever had a bad experience.”

“I love Woronora Heights Big Fat Smile, all the educators are wonderful and my kids adore attending.”

“The Centre is such a welcoming place – all the educators are so friendly and approachable and seem to love what they do. All the staff at the centre go above and beyond for the children, making it a fun and safe space to learn and play. I couldn’t ask for more and am so lucky this centre is on my door step. Thank you to all the staff at WHCPS for taking such good care of my children :)”

“It has been an amazing place for my son. He has come so far in his development with the help of all the staff at Big Fat Smile”
