Meet the educator

Hello and welcome!

My name is Bahar, and I am the educator behind Rainbow Family Day Care. I hold a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care and have over 10 years of experience working with children in early learning settings. I also have a Master’s degree in Teaching from overseas and previous experience working in primary schools.

I am passionate about creating a warm, safe and nurturing environment where children feel valued, respected and supported to learn through play. I believe every child is unique and deserves opportunities to explore, discover and develop at their own pace.

At Rainbow Family Day Care, children enjoy a home-like setting that encourages curiosity, creativity, independence and confidence. Our days are filled with engaging experiences including arts and crafts, sensory play, literacy and numeracy, outdoor exploration, music and cultural celebrations.

Building strong relationships with children and their families is very important to me. I strive to create a welcoming community where families feel supported and involved in their child’s learning journey.

I look forward to meeting you and your little one.
