My name is Ms. Julia and I graduated from the University of Manitoba in June 2023. Since then I have been committed to making a career as a Montessori teacher here at our center. For as long as I can remember, I have had the goal of working with young children, the development of their growing minds is fascinating to her. Growing up in the neighborhood, a block from RHCC, I have a special place in my heart for the community. The favourite part of my day is seeing all the children arrive in the morning, getting greeted with hugs and listening to the children’s stories of their time with family. In my spare time my hobbies include baking, looking after my dog Millie and cat Fig as well as spending as many weekends at my cottage on Lake of The Woods as possible. I am thrilled to take on her new role as a Montessori Teacher in training in Preschool 1. I will be starting my official Montessori certification course, September 2024.

Assistant Educator, CCA

My name is Ms. Isha and I have recently joined the Child Care team of River Heights and I have been having the time of my life since then. I hold a Ph.D. in English Literature and I am passionate about sharing many many stories with the children. I used to be an Assistant Professor of Literature in India and loved to teach and learn from young orphaned children (voluntary work) back home which is why I always expect to get the best perspectives from children. I believe that the innocence of children is an unmatched force and that they have the energy, curiosity and imagination to bring anything to life which is why it is really fun to be around them and see the world from their point of view. I love reading, visiting historical and cultural sites and painting in my spare time. I adore animals and look forward to adopting a dog soon. I see a bright and happy future in child care and will be completing my CCA course soon because I love stories and there’s nothing better than being a part of someone’s childhood memories.

Director, ECE III
My name is Natasha Slawik and I am the Director at River Heights Child Care. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. I am a mom, wife and educator. I was born in Johannesburg, South Africa and first visited Winnipeg in 1997 as a Rotary Exchange Student. I returned to Winnipeg a year later to pursue a post-secondary education and to make Winnipeg my home. Shortly after I completed my studies in Winnipeg, I was fortunate to become a Canadian citizen. I attended Red River College where I obtained my Early Childhood II certification. After a few years in the field I decided to pursue my ECE III certificate and completed the Advanced Leadership Diploma through the University of Winnipeg. I am extremely passionate about my career choice as an Early Childhood Educator. I have been in the field for the last twenty years as a frontline worker, supervisor and a director. To add to my development as an educator, in February 2020, I got my training to become a facilitator in Circle of Security. This is a world recognized training program that teaches about the benefits of secure attachments between children and caregivers. I gained a thorough understanding of how early learning and childcare professionals can meet a child’s emotional needs and create a secure relationship with that child. I have also completed 6 levels of American Sign Language through the Deaf Centre of Manitoba. My husband and I have two amazing and energetic boys. Matthew is in Grade 9 and Ethan in Grade 7. Outside of work I have become an avid fan of their hockey. As a family we love spending time exploring the outdoors and creating new memories. I enjoy cooking, reading and walks with our dog Copp.
