Meet Mel, our Centre Manager
I love working with children and families in creating a safe and secure environment, relationship, and partnership. I believe that each child is unique and their health and wellbeing always comes first and foremost. I have a passion for supporting families in every way that I can, with a flexible approach that’s tailored to each child and family. I understand that choosing a childcare service is an important process and is an important decision to make. I feel privileged in helping families make this choice an easy one. I encourage you to read what our families have to say about us.

In our infant and toddler classrooms we encompass a family like environment for our youngest children. Our infant and toddler holistic wellbeing is of upmost importance. We provide a respectful environment that is rich in learning possibilities and provides a safe space for our children to unfold naturally in their own space and time. Our mission is to grow competent and confident learners that are secure in their sense of belonging and socialising with others.

In our junior kindergarten and senior kindergarten classrooms we provide a safe learning environment for all our children. Each individual child is unique in their own way and we understand that all children learn differently. We believe our environment acts as the third teacher and we set up inviting provocations that provoke thought and wonder for our children to extend their current interests on a deeper level.

Our Kindergarten room is managed by university-trained Early Childhood Teachers, specializing in the Early Years. The program is delivered in alignment with the Queensland Kindergarten Guidelines and Early Years Framework. We provide experiences which allow children opportunities to develop a range of skills, knowledge and dispositions for learning that we believe will set them up for life long learning.
