About

Here at Mudpies & Dragonflies Family Day Care, my goal is to provide a loving, safe and nurturing home environment in which all children can feel safe, happy and loved while they grow, learn, play and explore each day. Like all approved Australian Child Care facilities, I use the Early Years Learning Framework and Being, Becoming and Belonging as my guide when planning and programming play, activities and experiences.

I understand that your family is the most important thing in the world. I know this because my family is the most important thing to me. It is my mission to make you and your children feel that each time you come to Mudpies and Dragonflies Family Day Care you are spending time with extended family. I picture a day where children can relax, be happy and engaged in fun activities, rest, eat wholesome food and receive a high standard of care.

Through play children can explore at their own level while I encourage them to do what they can for themselves to help them achieve their goals. I believe that children should be in a safe and nurturing environment that encourages harmony, excitement and laughter, while providing understanding and support of their individual needs.

Laughter, love and patience are how I hope that your child will come to recognise that Mudpies and Dragonflies Family Day Care is their home away from home.

We can’t say enough wonderful things about Amber! Our son spent 18 months under her care up until last year, and the experience was nothing short of extraordinary. From the very beginning, it was clear that Amber is a remarkable educator who genuinely cares about each child’s growth and happiness. The love and nurturing she provides are amazing. Amber has an incredible ability to connect with the kids, making each of them feel valued and cherished. Her warm and encouraging approach helped our son develop confidence and curiosity in a supportive environment. It was a joy to see how much he thrived under her guidance. Her talent doesn’t stop at just teaching; Amber is also a culinary wizard! The meals she prepares are not only delicious but also incredibly nutritious. Our son always looked forward to mealtimes, and we could see the positive impact of her balanced and creative menus on his energy and health. It’s a relief to know that he was getting wholesome, tasty meals that he genuinely enjoyed. Moreover, the learning experiences Amber creates are both engaging and educational. Our son learned so much during his time with her, from early literacy and numeracy to social skills and creativity. It’s clear that she puts a great deal of thought and care into designing activities that are both fun and educational. Most importantly, our son absolutely loved his time at Amber’s day care. Every day he came home with stories about his adventures and new things he had learned. The joy in his voice and the excitement in his eyes when he spoke about his day were proof of how much he enjoyed and valued his time there. If you’re looking for a day care educator who is truly exceptional, loving, and dedicated, we wholeheartedly recommend Amber. She has made a lasting impact on our son’s life, and we are immensely grateful for everything she has done. Thank you, Amber, for your incredible care and for making our son’s early learning journey so wonderful!

Our daughter always ran in with a smile and was always excited for her days at care. We are so grateful to Amber and the children for the love and friendships she shared over the years. It was so hard to say goodbye when we left but we know the next child taking the spot will have just as much fun and learn just as much as our daughter did before them.

My son has loved his time with Amber and his friends and will miss them when we move. He always comes home happy, well fed and full of stories about his day. He has grown so much and learned so much in his time at day care and we are so grateful for the positive and nurturing start that we have all experienced in his first years of learning at Mudpies and Dragonflies.
