We are a boutique family owned long day care and long preschool. There are 20 children only that attend daily with 5/6 staff caring and educating our children aged from 6 months to 6 years. Government subsidy (CCS) is applicable to all ages at our centre and paid directly to the centre so you just pay the gap. We are open all year around except for 4 weeks at Christmas. Our hours are 7.30am to 5.30pm. The philosophy is based on Family Day Care from where I gained Educator of the Year for the Region. Our children learn in small groups of 4-6 children with 1 or 2 educators. Our staff are highly qualified and highly professional. We pick up and drop off from your home. The children are taken on excursions 2 morning per week to parks, museums, libraries, cafes, to name but a few destinations. The centre is state of the art architecturally designed to be a beautiful calm environment the replicates a home, and we are on 1/3rd of an acre with an amazing natural outdoor area. Everything here is about quality and ensuring we meet individual needs of the children and family. The integration program consists of 1 ½ hour sessions twice weekly for 3 weeks. This period allows parents to get to know the educator, routine and ensure transparency of all that we do. The child has time then to adjust to their new setting before commencing full days.
