What Parents Say About Us

review-img

Love, love this place! Very attentive with my children and extremely helpful. The staff, from nursery to toddlers, are amazing and management is very helpful. The center is clean and fresh, and offers great learning tools for my two children. We have been attending this center for nearly two years and I aim to have my children transition to school from this center. #fussymother

What types of food do you provide? Do you cater for dietary, cultural and medical needs?

Q2

The smell of cooking from the cucina and seeing children getting involved in cooking, very much reflects that our passion for food in all our Early Schools.

Because the right food is vital for your child’s development, our menus are developed by Nourished Beginnings using whole foods and excluding processed sugars. We cater to all allergies, as well as cultural and dietary preferences and all our Early Schools are nut aware.

Please see our Summer/Autumn or Winter/Spring menus for detailed information on what we provide.

What are the room routines?

Q3

The needs of each child and their age dictate their routine. Those children in the Nursery room follow their individual home routine. As they progress to the Toddler’s room, we begin to blend this with a more general routine that follows regular mealtimes and sleep patterns. Kindergarten children have the most structured routine, which encourages self-service and independent feeding.

How are fees paid?

Q4
  • You are required to pay one-week fees in advance
  • Payments are made by direct debit for convenience and security
  • If you wish to cancel or change your booking, we need two weeks’ notice in writing

Q5

Our curriculum, which is a balance of child led and adult intentional teaching, offers children the opportunity to participate in active learning, whilst having the support and challenge they need from Educators.
