About L'Atelier for Children

ABOUT US

At L’Atelier, our tailored curriculum is designed to meet the unique learning and development needs of children aged 2 to 5 years, providing them with a safe, caring, and creative environment. As an approved Preschool, we are committed to the provision of the Childcare Benefit, ensuring quality early education for all families.

OUR STORY

L’Atelier, derived from the French word meaning "studio" or "workshop," is a place where children can explore, create, dream, play, and build. Inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach from Italy, our environment places the studio at the heart of the children's experience. Here, children develop skills that allow them to explore and express their ideas and interests through various mediums.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

  • Nurture Exploration: We encourage children to explore, create, wonder, and grow in a safe and caring environment.
  • Holistic Care: Our approach is flexible and responsive to the needs of each child, their family, our staff, and the community.
  • Inclusive Learning: We provide a learning environment where children feel safe, secure, and accepted without prejudice.
  • Family Partnerships: We respect the values and beliefs of all families and recognize the primary role of parents/guardians as caregivers.
  • Play-Based Learning: We offer play experiences that enhance decision-making, skill mastery, and self-discovery, focusing on the learning process and providing a range of challenging but achievable experiences.

OUR PROGRAM

Our programs are crafted, implemented, and evaluated by a highly qualified early childhood teacher who embraces the Reggio Emilia approach. This method encourages multi-modal inquiries, integrating language, mathematics, science, information technology, and sustainable development. Supported by specialist teachers and skilled assistants, our offerings include music, dance, art, and Italian, all set within sensory-rich environments designed to stimulate curiosity and wonder.

We believe in the importance of both indoor and outdoor learning experiences. Our play-based learning approach encourages children to connect with the natural environment, fostering their senses, curiosity, and a desire to protect our world. The use of natural materials and neutral colors in our settings promotes calm and open-ended creativity.

Claire Holloway4 months ago

My daughter has been attending l’Atelier for 6 months now, and she is absolutely loving her time there (which of course makes her parents happy). All the staff are warm, genuine and approachable and the educational programming offers an excellent array of play-based learning experiences. Highly recommended if you want more of a ‘family daycare’ feel but with the pre-school education as well.
