We recommend contacting our team as early as possible to secure availability. In most cases, children can be enrolled at any time throughout the year, subject to vacancies.
We understand not all families have the same routine, so our programs are on offer five days a week, 52 weeks a year. Our centres offer longer hours and flexible options as well.
We care for children from six weeks up to school age, with some of our centres also offering Outside School Hours Care. Our rooms are designed around age-specific needs and typically follow these groupings: babies (6weeks – 18 months), toddlers (18 months – 3 years), kindergarten (3 – 5 years),and Vacation Care/Before & After School Care (5 – 12 years).
Our services are approved by the Australian Government, which means families may be eligible for assistance through the Child Care Subsidy (CCS). To learn more, visit www.mychild.gov.au, or try the Subsidy Estimator by clicking here. Additional funding is available for families who identify as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, as well as for vulnerable children and families experiencing temporary financial hardship. Depending on your personal circumstances, you may also be eligible for other government support. For more information, visit www.mychild.gov.au or www.humanservices.gov.au, or speak with our Centre Director for guidance.
Our program is guided by the Australian Government’s Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF). This national framework outlines the key principles, practices, and learning outcomes that support and enhance children’s development from birth to five years of age, including their transition to school.
Each centre has an Educational Leader who coaches and mentors Educators to develop high-quality educational programs. In addition, a dedicated Pedagogy Practice Lead oversees best practice across all centres. All Educators either hold, or are actively working towards, a Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care. Atleast half of the team also hold a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care, and depending on the size of the centre, some centres employ Bachelor-trained teachers. Every team member who works directly with children holds a current Working with Children Check, Police Clearance, Child Safe training, approved qualifications, and the appropriate first aid certification, ensuring children are safe and well supported.
We welcome and support all children. Our staff are trained to care for a variety of additional needs, and will undertake further training if required to ensure your child receives the best support. We also have access to our internal Inclusion Support Team for guidance, training, and additional assistance. By working closely with you, we aim to achieve the best outcomes for your child.
Our centres provide a range of extras to support your child’s learning and make life easierfor busy families. These may include nutritious meals, sunscreen, and a variety of excursions and incursions.
Yes, we accommodate children with alternative meal needs. We have strict policies and procedures for preparing and serving food to children with severe allergies, intolerances, or specific lifestyle or cultural preferences. If your child requires alternative meals, we will discuss the process with you in detail to ensure their needs are properly met.
We aim to create an environment where every child feels safe, secure, and supported, while encouraging a strong sense of identity. If we notice behaviors that are affecting other children or educators, we will discuss our observations with you and work together to find the best approach to support your child’s development.
