Introducing:

		Dee Lester - Director I have been the Director at Tiny Town since 2005. I have worked as an early childhood educator for 17 years and hold a Graduate Diploma in Early Childhood Education. Tiny Town is a very special place, where the caring and supportive ethos enables families and the staff to work together to provide a very positive learning environment. I am married and have 3 grown up children. In my spare time I enjoy boating with my family and relaxing with a good book.
		Amelia I have been the Assistant Director at Tiny Town since 2008. I have enjoyed a career working with young children for over 20 years and have a Bachelor of Education in Early Childhood.  I am married with 2 children, aged 10 and 13. Our family loves to go camping and four wheel driving together. I look forward to getting to know the children and their families, and being able to share in children’s learning journey at TinyTown.
		Katy I have been a Group Leader at Tiny Town since 2009 and have worked in childcare for over 15 years. I gained my Diploma in the UK, before we moved to Australia. With my husband and our children, aged 5 and 2, I love spending time at the beach, surfing, fishing and going to all the beautiful parks here. I really enjoy the great community spirit that exists at Tiny Town.
