Family Day Care Australia CEO Andrew Paterson said this year had a record number of nominations.
“To be chosen as a regional winner is not only a reward for Amanda’s dedication to providing quality early childhood education and care, it also underscores the relationship that Amanda has with the children in her care,” said Mr Paterson.
