Safety

Safety

Edge Gawler East is unwavering in our commitment to ensuring that our centre provides a secure and nurturing environment where your child’s wellbeing is always our top priority.

  • Our dedicated team prioritises safeguarding children through daily practices, educational programs, and adherence to national child safety principles.
  • Our 3–5 years rooms benefit from a higher 1:9 ratio of educators to children (versus the regulated 1:11 ratio), meaning your child will receive an enhanced level of individualised care and supervision.
  • Our supervisory and senior staff complete regular Child Protection and Mandatory Reporting training.
  • We proudly work with Bravehearts and other similar child safety advocate organisations to strengthen the personal safety education within our programming.
  • Our S.A.F.E. framework (Spot, Act, Fix, Explain) requires staff to speak up if they see or suspect something isn’t right. With S.A.F.E. in place, we have created a culture of accountability where reporting is expected and encouraged.
  • Our Active Supervision policy ensures all team members understand the importance of Plan, Position, Look & Listen.

Nearly 12 months into our journey at edge Gawler east after a traumatic experience elsewhere, Tayla, Jamie and the team have been nothing but wonderful to my boys. The educators in Nursery 1 and toddlers are absolutely amazing. My boys adore them and are absolutely thriving in the care of the team. Nothing but positive things to say!

Can't recommend this place enough! Leo has absolutely loved it each day he's in. Kayla, Nikki, Lin, Kendal & Naomi are incredible people that do nothing but provide endless laughs, care and education for my boy. Unlike previous our center, Leo is outside enjoy the fresh air as much as possible. (I won't be held responsible for the amount of sand he brings home daily, soz) And the food, he eats better than I do so I camt complain!

This is our daughter’s third and by far, favourite childcare. The staff in the kindy room are brilliant. Everyone is approachable and personable. The room is structured and kids are always busy and happy. Highly recommend - we will miss you all next year!
