Hello! My name is Susannah and I am 31 years old currently living in Fitzroy, Melbourne. I have worked in Early Childhood Education for a couple of years now, first beginning in the Kinder space before moving into the Nursery with the little ones. In spite of there being some challenging days, I love the work that I do in being able to enrich the lives and learning experiences of the kids that I work with.

Outside of work, I have a great love for music and I love expanding my music library.
