About the Curriculum

About the Curriculum

As a family-run business, we provide affordable options while maintaining the highest standards in our educational services. Our teaching philosophy focuses on learning through play, utilizing an inquiry-based curriculum that encourages meaningful hands-on exploration.

A play-based center curriculum emphasizes the importance of play as a fundamental component of childhood learning and development. By integrating playful activities into the daily routine, children are encouraged to explore, experiment, and engage with their environment in meaningful ways. This approach nurtures creativity, critical thinking, and social skills, allowing children to learn at their own pace while fostering a love for learning. Activities are often designed to be hands-on and interactive, promoting inquiry and discovery as children pursue their interests. Through play, educators can observe and support each child's unique learning journey, ensuring that the curriculum is both educational and enjoyable.

This centre cowers behind their "policies and procedures". In reality they assume zero accountability, zero responsibility and have absolutely no integrity.

Response from the owner 28 Aug 2025

You are entirely right—we adhere strictly to all policies and procedures. We maintain a zero-tolerance approach to any abuse directed at our staff. Our educators are truly remarkable individuals, full of compassion and dedication, always prioritizing the well-being of the children. We wish you the very best in your future endeavors. 🦋

Unfortunately it turned into a 1 star and removal of my child BASED ON MY OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE!!! NON OF ANY EX EMPLOYEES!!! THE EMPLOYEES that left were all amazing 👏

Response from the owner 07 Jun 2025

We encourage you to voice any concerns you may have with the Department of Education. Your issues were acknowledged, but we understand that you were not satisfied with the responses. Please know that we adhere to established policies and procedures to ensure the safety of all children and families. We appreciate your feedback and agree that the employees in our service have been outstanding. There are various reasons why employees may leave, including family commitments, relocations, and other personal circumstances. Unfortunately, some may also depart for not adhering to our policies and procedures. However, this is a business matter and not a reflection of the many positive contributions they made during their time with us.(we wish your son mr Bowen the very best in his future endeavours) Just 10 weeks ago, you gave us a 5-star review and we truly value your feedback. It is disheartening for us to see that your family, including Jake Hutson (partner) and Bowen Matthews (son - X employee and does not have a child in care), have left 1-star reviews today. 2nd March 2025 - 5 STAR RATING Absolutely Beautiful daycare Every staff member is kind caring and holds an extremely high standard to child safety. They do not tolerate any form of unsafe behaviour from staff and children. There care is very evident. When enrolling your child for the 1st time. They have complete compassion care and love. They try there best to set your mind at ease. There communication is very clear and open. The app is regularly updated by staff so u are able to see what your child has done though out the day. Which is fantastic when your putting bub in for the 1st time full time That alone put your mind completely at ease. The rooms are always clean and tidy. Kids all look happy and content. Food looks amazing. It's exciting and fantastic to see men finally working in the industry # Mr Bowen and Mr Tom are a breath of fresh air and u can see the kids just love having that male role model in the center. Both men do an amazing job and show a beautiful kind caring compassionate approach to childcare. This centre provides a wonderful experience I'm extremely fussy with picking daycares and did play and stays in all centers in the area and these guys definitely won I my choice. Well done to

After a horrible experience with previous daycare, it's such a breath of fresh air now when taking our little one there. Clearly, there's been a shift in direction, not only physically with the centre but also with the new director who has taken charge. The renovations are nothing short of spectacular. Staff are always friendly but what is most Impressive is the transparency and honesty with staff. We have only made one complaint since enrolled, the issue was dealt with promptly and we were given amazing follow-up. Congratulations to the new look and new staff, obviously headed by people who care about the children. Highly recommend for which I do regularly. 5 STARS
