Corinne Bell, from Upper Hunter Family Day Care, won the award which recognises educators across the family day care sector for their excellence in contributions to early childhood education and care.
The manager of community services at Upper Hunter Shire Council, Kerri Cone, congratulated Ms Bell on her achievements.
"Corinne connects modern day subjects with how traditional First Nations teaching methods are used to support her curriculum," Ms Cone said.
"She continually builds on her professional teaching through extensive research, attending professional development workshops and open dialogue with like minded professionals.
"By sharing her enormous knowledge set with other professionals, she has rightly earned the respect of her peers who turn to her for guidance and support. "
The Upper Hunter Shire Council also congratulated Michelle Walsh and Louise McRae for their nominations in the co-ordinator category in the 2021 awards.
