CHILD CARE PROGRAMS
The Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) stipulates outcomes that children attending early learning environments need to achieve.
BROADLY, THESE PROGRAM OUTCOMES ARE:
- Children have a strong sense of identity;
- Children are connected with and contribute to their world;
- Children have a strong sense of wellbeing;
- Children are confident and involved learners;
- Children are effective communicators.
BABIES PROGRAMS: 0-2
Because our philosophy revolves around play, our Babies’ Programs are designed to stimulate babies by exposing them to different textures, tastes, smells, materials, objects and sounds to build their knowledge of the world around them.
Our little ones build a strong sense of self, through socialising with other
bubs and educators. Babies feel secure with our educators who are trained in caring for young bodies, minds and emotions.
Our educators are experts in finding intentional teaching moments at all times of the day whether it be through a sing-along, recognising rhymes within stories, or creating carefully crafted spaces that capture the imagination and interest of our babies.
Teaching independence can never be underestimated. Babies are supported to learn basic skills such as sunscreen application, and feeding independently.
All their skills learnt as babies will prepare them for their next learning phase.
