Deep Creek Childcare Centre

Ocean room

Hi, I’m Desiree I have been with the centre since 2010, I have a master’s in special education needs and a grad Diploma in Early Childhood Studies.
I was born in the USA and prior to arriving in Australia in 2002 I lived in Vietnam, Hong Kong, Singapore, Germany, Austria, and Belgium.
In my other life I was a banker and international student.
My interests include, traveling, skiing, and playing pickleball.
I am a member of a community garden and enjoy growing my own vegetables.
I have a dog named Molly – a chocolate Labrador. Molly and I walk elderly citizens’ dogs after work together.
Hi there, and may I introduce myself. I’m Paul and I grew up in Kew and Doncaster, and at the age of 22 got the travel bug, spending several years travelling between Europe & Australia (mainly working in ski resorts). Back in Australia my wife and I spent 5 years in Sydney, followed by 24 years in London. I have 3 grown up sons, living in London. I’ve had a very varied and interesting life with a number of different careers, including an apprenticeship as a chef, managing a chocolate factory and a restaurant, a couple of seasons ski instructing, 3 cake/sandwich shops, 13 years in building construction, and a garden design/maintenance business (they say that variety is the spice of life), and now 10 years in Child Care which I’m loving.
When I’m not in a room full of very lively children, I enjoy the peace & tranquillity of fishing from my kayak out on Port Phillip or Western Port bays. I love getting away with my lovely French partner, for stays in Airbnb’s all over Victoria.
My name is Ramesh. I am originally from the North of Iran, a beautiful city called Rasht (it pretty much has the same weather as Melbourne!). I migrated to Australia with my family in late 2008 and I joined the Deep Creek Centre shortly after in 2009. I have a son named Kashi and a daughter named Anna. My family was expanded in 2019 when my daughter married, and we welcomed a son-in-law. My daughter has a toy poodle. His name is Theo, and whenever she is a way, I look after him (he is the cutest dog ever!). I love travelling around the world, and always look forward to going home to visit my Mum. I love going for walks every day and if I have any spare time, I use it to bake or cook for my family. My favourite activities are yoga and Pilates. I find them so calming and relaxing. Both my husband and son are builders, so we tend to move house every year. Don’t be surprised if one day I become your neighbour! Finally, I want to say how much I love working with your children! They bring so much joy and happiness to our centre!
I am Afsheen, I have been working at Deep Creek childcare since 2019.  I left my home country Pakistan in 1999 and was fortunate enough to live in four continents and in 2015 we made Melbourne our home. I have three kids aged 20, 17, 13, I love nature and try to take every opportunity to spend time with family in the outdoors.
I’m Karen, an early childhood teacher, Chinese teacher, and mother of three school age children, with over a decade of experience in Childcare. I scaffolding children’s learning journey, nurturing their potential, and shape their world view to prepare them as responsible citizens.
