Andrea Craddock

Both my sister and I are passionate about working with children and chose working with children as our vocation. I closed by family daycare to work as an Education Assistant, whereas my sister has remained a rare gem, having worked as a fully certified ECE for over 30 years. We have compared notes over the years and have both advocated for $10 a Day Childcare through our union, labour council, (Stroller Brigades) in partnership with MLAs, determined to move the bar on providing quality early learning for children and respect and recognition for those who do this important work.  Andrea is President of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) Local 723, Support Staff School District 72, Campbell River.
