About the Curriculum
About the Curriculum
“Let the child be the scriptwriter, director and the actor in their own play” - Magda Gerber
Nursery Space: 6 weeks – 2 years
Learning starts from before birth, and our Educators have created a welcoming and nurturing nursery environment where each baby feels safe to explore and discover new things - through their senses, their communication and cues (body language, facial expression and sounds) and by experimenting. On any given day you can see the nursery children engaging in all types of play, water play, music time, story time and more. Every day provides a brand new, exciting adventure for our babies to support their development, learning and wellbeing!
Toddler Space: 2 - 3 years
Our teachers and educators encourage the children to learn through play to help enhance their sensory-motor development. This happens through carefully planned music, dance, games and reading experiences.
On any given day the Toddler children can be seen developing their numeracy by building a tower, sorting objects, pointing and identifying shapes and patterns and participating in counting songs and games.
Children in our toddler space are encouraged to participate in group play. Group play is important as it helps our toddlers develop important social skills such as, turn taking, developing self confidence and emotional self regulation. Our team helps children through talking, planning and role modelling.
Kindergarten Space: 3 – 6 years
Kindergarten is a unique time for learning with peers and developing skills for later learning including confidence and curiosity, important skills for starting school. Our play-based program encourages active engagement in learning and supports a range of positive developmental outcomes including resilience, independence, critical thinking and creativity.
The oral language supports literacy learning. A child’s oral language ability is the best predictor for later success in learning to read and write. Hearing the sounds within a language is the first critical step for all literacy learning. Our team supports our Kindergarten children's development by engaging in rich discussions, introducing new vocabulary as part of everyday conversations, as well as singing, playing games, and reading with the children daily.
Throughout the Kindergarten year,children use their language to share ideas, ask questions, express themselves, and connect with peers and adults in social settings.
Social-emotional skills, including the ability to self-regulate emotions, is supported through group learning environments. Our team supports each child’s social and emotional development by labelling and talking about emotions and supporting appropriate responses as together, they engage in new and challenging situations. Lastly, ensuring that all children are ready for the ‘big school’ by preparing them for all that ‘big school’ has to offer.
Morning
Allie is 11 months old and enjoys sensory play outside in the sandpit with her friends. She sits near her educator who helps teach her how to scoop the sand into the bucket. Allie is learning how to dig, carry, and move the sand. She is also exploring texture and learning what happens to the sand when she adds water!
Lunch
Allie has finished her lunch and is preparing to take a nap. Her educator changes her nappy, prepares a bottle and reads Allie a story before her afternoon sleep.
Afternoon
Allie and some of her nursery friends enjoy some story time and songs outside in the shaded garden. They read ‘Peepo’ which is Allie’s favourite book.
Morning
Peter is two and a half years old and loves to start his day at the centre outside on the climbing equipment. His friends join him, and together they pretend to be pirates on a ship looking for treasure. Through this exciting dramatic play, Peter is learning about himself and the world around him. Dramatic play is helping Peter identify his interests, abilities, likes and dislikes.
Lunch
Peter is watering the vegetables in the garden. By doing this, Peter is learning the importance of growing and caring for the veggies in the garden. Peter picks a tomato from the garden, which the Chef will use to help make Peter and his friend’s lunch - Spaghetti Bolognese!
Afternoon
Peter enjoys art, and today he is painting a beach scene from a recent family holiday. He adds the finishing touches and sets the painting aside to dry; so that he can take it home to share with his family.
While painting, Peter is learning how to express himself creatively and how to convey his ideas and emotions. Painting is also helping develop Peter’s hand eye coordination, finger, wrist and hand strength. Making marks on paper is important for self expression as well as later learning.
Morning
Kara is almost five years old and can’t wait for today’s carpentry experience - she loves building things! Carpentry experiences allow Kara and her friends to extend their learning through real-life experiences. While participating in carpentry, Kara is learning to problem solve, experiment and predict. She is also improving her hand eye coordination, manipulative skills and muscular strength.
Lunch
Before Kara sits down for lunch with her friends and educators, Kara takes part in the centre’s sports program. Kara loves sports. Sports helps Kara improve her flexibility and strength (perfect for growing bodies!). Sports also allows her to practice different skills in a fun and engaging way.
Afternoon
Kara is off to ‘big school’ next year and she can't wait to start! Kara and her friends will be visiting the local primary school next week. In preparation for the visit, the class is creating a list of questions to ask the Principal and school children.

Health and Nutrition
Our centre chef prepares and cooks healthy and nutritious meals daily, catering to the unique dietary requirements of every child. We believe that by encouraging active participation (such as growing their own fruit and vegetables, preparing, and finally cooking!) children learn to appreciate and understand the importance of healthy eating.
Our centre offers children nutrient-rich, unprocessed, and seasonal whole foods – created to delight the fussiest eaters.

Hi my name is Pia, and I am the Centre Manager here at Kool Kids Miami. My early learning journey began in 2006. I hold a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care. I am passionate about quality care, education, and children’s development. From a young age, I knew I wanted to work with children and positively impact their lives. Watching children grow while supporting and guiding them through their developmental stages has been incredibly rewarding.
Throughout my career in early childhood education, I have learned that children learn at their own pace and flourish in environments where they feel safe, secure, and supported. This belief guides my teaching style, emphasizing the importance of creating a nurturing and supportive space for every child.
I am dedicated to implementing engaging activities and spaces that encourage children’s natural dispositions for learning, such as curiosity, confidence, creativity, imagination, enthusiasm, and persistence. By taking the time to understand each child’s needs and interests, I scaffold their learning experiences to help them achieve their goals.
An early childhood education and care centre offers a structured environment with a curriculum designed to promote various developmental areas, providing consistency and routine that help children feel secure. Our centre fosters social skills through peer interaction, encouraging children to develop the skills to share, cooperate, and communicate.
Kool Kids Miami is a small, 75-place centre with four rooms: Nursery, Toddlers, Junior Kindy, and Kindergarten. Our long-standing team, comprised of diverse cultural backgrounds, has grown and developed together, providing quality care and consistency to many families in the area. We pride ourselves on offering high-quality care and education.
Our relationships with families are built on trust and open communication. We work in partnership with families to provide the best possible outcomes for the children in our care. I look forward to welcoming you to our centre and working together to support your child’s development and well-being.
