Dashing Ducks Castle Hill

The Dashing Ducks team is made up of a group of caring and experienced educators from diverse backgrounds. All hold relevant qualifications and work together as a team to build strong relationships with the children and their families.

The educators follow a model of reflective practice and are supported to develop their own skills and knowledge. Through ongoing professional development, the educators stay abreast of the latest research and thinking in the early childhood sector.

The educators work with the families to build strong relationships that benefit the children. The aim is to work collaboratively as a team to incorporate family experiences into the program. This is supported with communication through different channels. Parents can speak with the educators face-to-face or through the centre’s online platform.

Our online platform, Child Care Central, allows parents to view the program as well as the educator’s observations about their child. To encourage two-way communication, parents can also share information or stories from home. Child Care Central also houses information about the children’s sleep, food intakes, bottles and nappy changes.

With strong connections in the community the educators invite community members into the centre to teach the children about their role as global citizens. Parents can also access community support and resources as required.
