ABOUT
Child care that will enrich your child's development
We believe that every child should be given the opportunity to thrive and feel supported and nurtured. That’s why we foster partnerships with our children, families, and local community that focus on promoting warm, respectful and harmonious interactions.
We are a child-focussed centre and believe that all children have rights. That’s why we encourage our children to express their ideas and opinions, safe in the knowledge that they will always be listened to. We understand that children excel in a supportive environment that promotes strong and diverse relationships, interaction, an active learning environment, and a sense of well being.
