Our classrooms vary depending on each service’s design. Our friendly Service Manager’s can provide information on the current groupings for each of our services. Typically, our classrooms are divided into the following groups:
In this age group, we aim to be highly supportive of parents/caregivers, whilst providing a program which incorporates warmth, interest, stimulation and security to each infant entrusted to us. The needs of you and your child will be our highest priority, as we work together with you to ensure your child’s happiness and security, as well as your peace of mind.
Extending on from the Nursery/Babies grouping, the Toddler group creates a play based learning environment. We understand that children explore, learn, communicate, discover, engage, imagine and create – all through play. Our educators create experiences and cultivate environments to guide your child’s play and learning journey.
Our aim in this age group is to provide a safe but stimulating environment to enable your child to explore and learn. We believe that by offering children choices and encouraging them to express their needs, we are providing them with the opportunity to further develop their skills on an individual basis. Our respect for you , as the primary educator of your child, is apparent in the way we continue to work with you as a family.
By the time your child moves into this age group, they will be developing a whole range of new skills. Our aim in this age group is primarily to encourage children’s independence and self-help skills. We base all our learning experiences on children’s needs and interests and work with you to exchange information about your child’s development. We do not establish “criteria for success”, rather encourage every child to learn and progress as their individual development dictates.
Children in this age range are ready to develop a whole new range of independence and social skills, as well as pre-literacy and numeracy skills. We offer a specialised preschool/kindergarten program and have developed a transition to school program, which ensures your child is ready for the next exciting chapter in they development.
“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!”
