Our dedicated educators foster a collaborative and supportive environment by maintaining strong communication with families through daily updates, Storypark, regular newsletters, and family nights. We have a strong community connection, with visits from local professionals such as dentists and child health nurses, as well as monthly sessions with specialists. Fortnightly excursions to local parks and shops further enrich the children’s learning experience.

Our centre’s four rooms, from Nursery to Kindergarten, follow the Early Years Learning Framework, integrating sensory and play-based learning to develop key skills in language, science, numeracy, and creative arts. Outdoor play areas feature newly renovated spaces with wooden decks, sandpits, climbing structures, worm farms, and water features, fostering environmental awareness and sustainability through gardening and water recycling.

Our team of long-standing, highly qualified educators creates flexible, engaging learning experiences tailored to each child’s individual needs. Most hold a Diploma in Children’s Services or higher, with some holding Bachelor's degrees.

We offer nutritious, chef-prepared meals throughout the day, and now include complimentary evening meals for children, supporting families by easing routines and reducing living costs.

We celebrate cultural diversity with events for Mother’s and Father’s Day, graduation ceremonies, Christmas parties, and more, reflecting our inclusive and community-focused ethos.

  • Dear Lash Babe11 months ago

    Can't recommend this childcare enough. This is the second time I have used this childcare center. Our first experience was with our older children in 2015, our two daughters, and again now in 2024. They have been so good with my speech-delayed 3-year-old son and my 1-and-a-half year old toddler. Thanks to the caring staff and amazing director, Brittany, my son is talking, and both are so comfortable and happy being in childcare. My husband and I are grateful for the attentiveness and love they give to our two boys daily. They have kept the same staff members since the first time we used their centre, and I feel comfortable knowing that my children are in their care.
