Our Staff

Meet the WREEC Staff!

West Ridge Early Education Centre is operated and monitored by a volunteer Board of Directors chosen from our parent population.  The Board is responsible for the overall operation and direction of the Centre.  Their role is to make decisions consistent with the By-Laws and Standing Rules found in our Constitution.  They are also the Policy and Procedure making body for the Centre.

Our  Educators  are  responsible  for  providing  your  child  with  a  stimulating,  safe  learning  environment  catered  to  your child’s  individual  needs  and ability  so  that  he  or  she  can  grow  to  his  or her  full  potential.  Each  staff  member  has  been chosen  for  their  individual  qualities  and  we  take  pride  in the  fact  that it  is  their  special  care  and  education  that  is  the direct  result  to  our  being  the  #1 Centre  in  Orillia.  Our  staff  love  coming  to  work  with children  as  demonstrated  by  our low staff turnover!

The experienced Cooks, are responsible for all food planning and preparation as well as maintaining a healthy, sanitary environment.

Our Executive Director, Rebecca  Koza  is  responsible  for  meeting  your  family’s  needs  and  ensuring  a  quality  child  care setting. She is responsible for the centre as a whole. She interacts with the children on a regular basis and always has an open-door policy! She is also fiscally responsible to the Board of Directors for the overall Centre operations.

Next is the Program Director, Anne Duffy who is responsible for reviewing staff program plans, overseeing the daily routine and coordinating extra-curricular activities to enhance the program. She offers support by assisting in the office with business matters related to the Centre, and to program staff when an extra pair of hands is needed.  She is sometimes in the program monitoring staff morale and professional conduct.

We  also  have  an  Admissions  and  Scheduling Coordinator,  Melissa  Reid  who is  responsible  for  the  child  staff  ratios  and children’s attendance. She monitors available spaces and accepts new clients to fill them. She is also responsible for the overall staffing of the facility and invoicing families.

Our Book Keeper, Dale Sheffield is responsible for all accounting inquiries and staff payroll.
