Meet the Director

Winnie Ngure

I have been working with children for over 20 years and it has been such a fulfilling experience. I did my education course as well as my Early Learning and Child Care course because I always wanted to work with children. My passion is to nurture young children to develop and be responsible youth in our society.

I attended Juvenescence from the ages of 5 to 11, which shaped my early years. At the age of 13, I began volunteering at the centre, which allowed me to give back to the community and gain valuable experience in working with children.  Recently, I started my university courses, pursuing a degree in nursing. My goal is to specialize in pediatric nursing, as I have a strong passion for helping children and supporting their health and well-being. While I am attending university, I plan to continue my work with children, as I believe it will enrich my education and provide me with hands-on experience in my field.

 I am a level 1 E.C.E., and I have experience working with children ages 4-17 and youth with autism. I have a bachelor's degree in Political Science since I am passionate about law, but I also have a profound passion for making a difference in the lives of children in all ways possible! I am a good listener, and I try my very best to ensure everyone—children and adults alike—is heard and seen.

   I am a Level 1 E.C.E here at Juvenescence. I moved to Calgary in 2023 to chase my dream of studying abroad, and it's been a rewarding experience for me. I have always loved working with children through volunteer work, which inspired me to earn my ECE certification and pursue a career in early childhood education. I am passionate about creating a warm, supportive, and engaging environment where children feel safe to learn and grow. I am also a huge fan of comedy shows.

I am a Level 3 ECE, I have been working with children aged 3-12 for 5 years. I am excited to be back in a before and after school setting. I was born and raised in High River, AB and moved to Calgary in 2021. I enjoy making meaningful relationships and connections with the people around me. My favorite aspect about working with children is actively engaging in their play, it's fun to pretend to be a kid again!   In my free time, I enjoy spending time in nature through bike riding, walking, and camping, as well as cooking, baking, and reading.

I am a Level 1 ECE at Juvenescence with experience working with children in schools, daycares, and after-school programs. My passion for working with children from a young age inspired me to pursue a career in early childhood education, and I am currently working toward my Level 3 ECE certification. Originally from Somalia, I came to Canada at the age of four and speak both English and Somali. I am also learning sign language to continue expanding my communication skills. I would describe myself as caring, patient, and fun, and I enjoy creating a warm, welcoming environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to grow.
