Kristy Banister
Approved Provider / Nominated Supervisor
Kristy has worked in the Early Childhood sector for over 20 years. Throughout her career she always dreamed of creating a service that would offer families more than just standard care options. It wasn’t until she started her own family that her passion truly deepened and she was introduced to the world of Family Day Care. From this experience the vision for Around The Clock Family Day Care was born.
Kristy is the heart and face of ATCFDC. While she works tirelessly behind the scenes, her greatest passion is supporting and working alongside our dedicated team of Educators, while remaining actively involved and up to date in an ever evolving children’s services industry.
Kristy founded ATCFDC with a strong commitment to respect, inclusion and community. She believes that every Educator, child and family should feel heard, valued and supported. At ATCFDC, everyone is more than just a number. Each person is an integral part of what makes our service strong.
