About the educators:

Christina obtained her Early Childhood Educator diploma in her native Germany. It was there where she developed a deep understanding of play-based and child-led-learning. Fun, organised and full of ideas, Christina is driven to create a caring, fun learning environment that fortifies the child honouring benefits of open-ended play. FUN FACT: Baby Basquiats and Frida's Friends are amongst our most popular and beloved programs, created and developed by Christina in 2020.
Ashley is an Early Childhood Educator with over 10 years experience facilitating emergent, play-based curriculum and inclusive classroom practices, having acted as lead educator and resource consultant for various child care facilities prior to working with the Children's Art Factory. FUN FACT: After attending many of Christina's sessions with her daughter Audrey, and connecting over their shared love of setting-up wonder-filled environments for young children to explore, Ashley joined our team in the summer of 2023.
