About Butterflies International Child Care Centre

"We are family, for families."

Our Program and Curriculum

Our program covers from Infants all the way to Preschoolers who are getting ready for school. These include day-to-day structured experiences, as well as extra curriculum such as Sports, Early Literacy, Mandarin, Art, Music, and Show and Tell. Alongside these fun learning experiences, we allow children to make their own choices about what they want to play, where they want to be, and how to take their own responsibilities to accept boundaries and respect others in a group environment. 

We strongly believe that School Readiness is not all about Numbers and Letters, but also about being emotionally ready and getting used to a stable routine. We hope that on their first day of Kindergarten, they will say, “I don’t want to go back to Butterflies anymore!”  

Partnership with Families

We have encouraged families’ involvement since day one via multiple platforms. The more our families are involved, the safer our children will feel, hence the more sense of belonging they will have to this local community. 

We listen to their concerns and take them into consideration when making decisions.

Dental Health, Sun Safety, Bees and Honey incursions were all contributed by our own brilliant parents.

Staffing

The best way to provide high-quality care and education is to ensure our educators have enough resources to plan thoroughly. With an experienced leadership team who started as classroom educators, and know exactly what is beneficial for the children. Butterflies provides each room with 1 day a week of off-the-floor programming time for educators to reflect, plan, and update individual portfolios. We believe that it is essential for them to conduct ongoing professional development.

Nicole Inskip30 days ago

The team at Butterflies are friendly, experienced and attentive. My 11 month old has just started at butterflies, my top priority is her emotional wellbeing and this is something that butterflies takes seriously. Butterflies offered us unlimited orientation days which is unlike any other daycare we looked at. We organised 2 weekly orientations over a 2 month period where I attended also and introduced my daughter to her new environment, peers and educators. By the time her first day came around and I was to drop her off and leave she felt safe, was able to enjoy herself and fully engage in activities. This meant I could focus fully on work and feel calm knowing that she was not in distress. Thank you to Rose and the team for making an otherwise stressful experience so easy.

Response from the owner29 days ago

Aww~Thank you for your positive feedback Nicole! Your valuable feedback makes all our work worth it. I'm sure your baby is also very proud of your effort of trying to make things easier for her~ Feeling safe is the number 1 before learning and thriving, and we know that we can achieve it together with the trust we have built!
