Educator to Child ratio
1:4 (1 educator to every 4 children 0-2 years)
1:5 (1 educator to every 5 children 2-3 years)
1:10 (1 educator to every 10 children 3-5 years)
How do you start your child at our service?
You can enrol your child at any time of the year, please phone to make an appointment. Upon enrolling your child you are required to complete a registration form and provide copies of your child’s immunisation record and birth certificate.
How do you make a booking for your child?
Bookings can be made on a regular or occasional basis.
Regular bookings can be made for a quarter (4 quarters per year).
Occasional bookings can be made preferably two weeks in advance.
How long will it take to settle your child into our service?
Often occasional care is the first experience a child has with childcare, and this means that your child may take some time to settle into the service. As each child is an individual, our educators will discuss with you the best way of settling your child.
Meal
Our service is a nut and egg free centre. Please make sure your child’s meals do not contain eggs nor any types of nuts such as peanut butter and Nutella, etc. Please provide your child with a healthy morning tea and a nutritious lunch. If your child stays for afternoon care you are also required to prepare a suitable afternoon tea.
Sleeping equipment
Parents are to provide a fitted mattress sheet and a flat sheet when children stay after 12 pm. Ideally they will be stored in a cloth drawstring bag and all clearly marked with the child’s name. Our service provides a sleeping mat for each child.
