Della and her team are beyond incredible, in the 3 and a bit years our children have attended care they have shown nothing but care and love for our whole family. Our children are thriving due to the care and the educational fun activities they provide. Would recommend any day of the week.

The holistic preschool program includes language and maths, STEAM, art and music, plus community incursions and excursions.

The stimulating STEAM program introduces children to science and technology, with fun art, craft and reading activities. Children have fun with interactive experiments including making volcanoes and kaleidoscope rainbows. The STEAM program responds to children’s innate curiosity and builds important cognitive skills.
