What the parents say
What the parents say
My son has been attending Balnarring Early Learning since he was 5 months old - he is now 14 months old and I love this centre more and more every day. My child squeals with excitement when he sees the building in the morning and is just as happy when I pick him up in the afternoon which I think is a testament of how well run this centre is. The staff are always so lovely and I really feel like they are an extension of my family. The meals he receives while in care are well thought out, delicious and healthy meals. I couldn’t recommend them enough.

About the curriculum
About the curriculum
The educators at Balnarring Early Learning Centre understand that for children, the first eight years are fundamental in establishing core values, sense of identity, and self-worth.
They see parents and families as the first educator, and that their role is to work together in a collaborative and supportive way on a child’s learning journey.
The educational philosophies at the centre are based on the Reggio Emilia approach to learning which supports enquiry and play-based learning opportunities in natural and responsive environments. The learning programs are designed to be emergent in nature and guided by the children’s interests and needs.
The centre’s learning programs are informed by both the National Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) which is based on the fundamental belief that children’s lives are characterised as “Belonging, Being and Becoming”; and the
Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework (VEYLDF) which identifies five learning outcomes for children that the centre strives toward:
- Children have a strong sense of identity (IDENTITY)
- Children are connected with and contribute to their world (COMMUNITY)
- Children have a strong sense of wellbeing (WELLBEING)
- Children are confident and involved learners (LEARNING)
- Children are effective communicators (COMMUNICATION)
There are five rooms at the centre covering the following ages:
- Nursery 1 & 2: 3 months - 2 years
- Toddler: 2 years - 3 years
- Pre Kinder: 3 years - 4 years
- Kinder: 4 years - 5 years

I am extremely passionate when it comes to the childcare industry and ensuring every child has a sense of belonging in our environment. I have been in the childcare industry for over 9 years and thoroughly enjoy the rewarding experience.
