Quality
Our Village Family Childcare is committed to providing all children with access to a high quality childcare service.
As part of the commitment to quality all Educators are supported by a central coordination unit.
The coordination unit staff conducts regular unannounced home visits with the Educators to ensure that the children are receiving the highest possible care.
Programs and Curriculum
Our Educators recognise that children are unique and understand that children develop at a different pace. Based on this, an individual program is developed based on your child’s interests and abilities. Families will be encouraged to contribute to this program. All education and care programs will be developed in line with an approved learning framework.
The educational program will contribute to the following outcomes:
- Children have a strong sense of identity
- Children are connected with and contribute to their world
- Children have a strong sense of wellbeing
- Children are confident and involved learners
- Children are effective communicators
Playgroup Sessions
Our Village Family Childcare offers playgroup sessions at various locations for our Educators to attend.
