Eleni Wilson, Secretary

Eleni is a mother of five children who is passionate about maintaining the integrity of early learning and care.

Eleni's early career was in human resources and business management and has spent the last 15 years in early learning and care.

After five years of early education training, Eleni opened her own centre (Barfa Bear, 2006). This was followed by Mama Bear in 2009 and her third centre Papa Bar, late 2014. She acknowledges the Premier’s desire to improve outcomes for NSW children but is concerned that many of the recent changes, although well intentioned, are damaging the ability of providers to perform to their optimum for both children and parents.
