Karla Budarick

Centre Director

My name is Karla Budarick and I have been working in the childcare industry at Goodstart Forest Gardens since 2012. I moved from South Australia to Cairns in pursuit to follow my dream of working with children, I was lucky enough to be given this opportunity not long after I re-located.

Through the years I have been the Lead Educator in the Nursery and the Pre-Kindergarten rooms. I have a passion for watching children learn, grow and thrive in their environments. I feel privileged to be part of such a crucial stage of children’s education. For several years I was the Assistant Director and in 2019, I became the Centre Director.

I enjoy leading a passionate and driven team of dedicated early learning educators.

I look forward to meeting you.
