Sunshine Bridge Educators
Hayley
Educator and Founder
Hayley has worked with homeschooling families globally since 2017, and has developed a strong sense of the academic and social/emotional needs and requirements for students and children, depending on their developmental stages.
"I belive chidlren and young adults thrive when we give them consistent opportunities to be involved in their own learning journeys."
Hayley has worked with students from PREP to year 12 in her capacity as a QLD teacher, and has developed the Modern Waldorf Approach, and curriculum.
She has two gorgeous children of her own, and two fluffy animals.
Jess
Educator - Early and Middle Years
For the past five years our tutor/educator, Jess, has built and maintained strong relationships with students, gently encouraging them and fostering a love of learning. She brings laughter and joy to our centre!
Jess was born in Melbourne, but has lived on the Gold Coast for the majority of her life. After finishing school she joined her dad in the family business running a restaurant. Here she completed her Chef apprenticeship and worked along side her family until she had her little girl, Rubi.
This is when Jess discovered her love of working with children and young people, and as time went on, she realised that it was time for a career change. Jess has been with us since 2020, and we can't remember life at Sunshine Bridge without her!
Jess plays netball and loves being outdoors especially at the beach. She also loves volunteering at a local retirement village which she and Rubi have volunteered since Rubi was 2 years old.
