Educator: Shereen (St Mary's)
Started with YLV in 2000
I love my job as a child care educator and would not change it for the world. Spending time with lots of fantastic children and helping them develop and grow is very rewarding, especially seeing the children's faces when they do something they didn’t think they could do. Now what could be better than that!

I love working with children because I enjoy seeing them learn, grow and mature. It makes me happy to know that by building a positive relationship with children and their parents, we are contributing and supporting the children to develop into their full potential. Children are our future and there is no limit to what they can achieve.

See what people are saying about us:
“The YLV OSHC program stands out as well organized, well planned and extremely caring toward the children. In the 4 years we have been attending there have been absolutely no causes for concern. The children are always happy + well stimulated by the activities with consistent structure. I wish all child care/teachers institutions were as good. By one happy mum + One happy son”
“There is an excellent out of hour’s program for children who attend Holy Rosary. It is run by Youth Leadership Victoria which is dedicated to providing exceptional on-campus care focused on the children’s well-being and development.”
“As always, without your OSHC program I don't know how I would have managed. All the staff are just so fantastic, the activities provided are great and I appreciate all the feedback regarding my son's behaviour, development etc. Thank you all!”
“Our Daughter liked the program a lot. It's very helpful and the activities are very interesting and fun! If I come up with any ideas for the next holidays I'll be happy to share them with YLV, Thank you!”
“I wanted to note that we were very pleased with the level of care during the school holidays. Our son just had a ball, and will be using the program again in future school holidays. Thanks so much again.”
“Thank you for giving our daughter much needed advice, educating, shaping the future, showing kindness, respect and care and letting us breathe easy.”
“YLV's activities and excursions are well structured & fun. Very educational and there's always something new. We are very happy & grateful for the care to our son, we highly recommend their services & wouldn't hesitate to recommend any new comers. Keep up the fantastic work!”
