Andrew Riley
I dreamt of working in childcare from the age of 15 years. At this age I did a practical placement in the local kindergarten and I remember vividly trying to use the limited sign language I had learnt talking to a 4 year old girl who was mute and had learning difficulties. I found this experience so rewarding that I wanted to work in an industry where you could make a difference in a person’s life. After working a long time in the corporate world I decided to finally do something about getting into the child care industry.

I have had childcare on my mind ever since I was born! My mother was an educator and even after my pre-school years I always went to visit her after school at her centre. I told everyone I wanted to be an educator like mum even though she encouraged me to chose my own career path! But it was meant to be…
After school I moved to England and worked as a nanny to 4 boisterous boys! Still, this confirmed my passion for the early years and I began my study to become a qualified educator. When I was a stay-at-home mum in New Zealand I volunteered at mainly music, a playgroup focused on music & movement. Through this I lead different groups of volunteers for 5 years, presented the music sessions and met many wonderful families.
