At Bright Horizons Australia Childcare, we believe that parents, as first educators of their children, lay the foundation for future learning. Early childhood education is an extension of such foundations and therefore we aim to provide an environment which fosters the cognitive, physical, social, spiritual and emotional development of the individual child. Through practice, we aim to promote equitable learning outcomes for children, based on these stages of development and learning.
Through regular communication and consultation with families, we aim to develop individual learning experiences that incorporate the strengths and interests of the children, in an environment that promotes active learning and development. Learning is achieved through play and it provides children with opportunities to see and understand the world through their eyes and experiences.
Educator’s culturally perspective practices are established through collaborative processes and relationships with families. Practices will be supported by the five principles identified in the Early Years Learning Framework. Children will experience an environment which reflects the cultural heritage, languages, customs and beliefs of the families within the community. Children and families will be secure in the sense that their cultural backgrounds are valued and respected within the setting.
Each of our early childhood education and care settings will adopt their own individual and unique curriculum pedagogy that will reflect the connectedness and collaborative approaches of the services, families and community they represent. Children’s active learning and development will be supported through rich and varied environments that change in response to their needs and interests.
Educators use a range of strategies to support learning by providing a balance between child-lead, child-initiated and intentional teaching opportunities. A reflective process is in place to critically examine practices and review learning outcomes.
At Bright Horizons Australia Childcare, we aspire to create an environment that provides enjoyable and creative learning. We achieve this through activities designed to support your child in all areas of growth.
Encourage your child’s potential and confidence through our specialised learning programs.
“I love this canter and the wonderful, warm staff that look after my baby at Bright Horizons! I was so apprehensive about first baby starting daycare but my daughter LOVES IT and comes home exhausted from all the fun she has had. The staff are attentive and caring. Couldn’t recommend more highly. Thanks for all you do!”
“Being very hesitant at first after having a run of bad luck with her previous daycares, my daughter settled right in to Bright Horizons. She has now been there over a year and the center and is more than happy to assist when asked. Keep up the great work team!!!”
“Lovely welcoming staff and nice atmosphere. Babies were all busy doing their own little things, playing drums on stacking blocks, putting rings on posts, playing the xylophone etc.
Children in the other rooms all seemed to be involved in some sort of enjoyable activity with lots of fun and laughter.”
“Really wonderful daycare, all of the educators have come to know my daughter really well in such a small amount of time, updates and communication is excellent and as a first time mother the way they handle everything and interact with myself and my daughter really eases some of the first timer worries. Miss Maz & Miss Tat are wonderful to talk too and have assisted me with all of my questions which may have seamed small or silly but have made such a difference in my journey. Miss Carolyn is a friendly face every morning and has never made me feel anything but comfortable and welcome even if I’ve called a couple times week haha. Bright Horizons has made a huge difference in our lives and my daughter loves being there, always coming home in a happy and fulfeild mood. Thank you!”
Allow your child to ease into their first day at childcare with a complimentary playdate.
