Childcare and Daycare Ashbury

Our Early Years and Childcare Program (0–3 Years)

At Little Scribblers, we’ve created an Early Years Program for 0–3 year olds that emphasises security, care, and natural surroundings. Guided by the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), our team supports learning through strong emotional bonds, stable routines, responsive caregiving, and rich sensory play.

With activities like tummy time, music, movement, and sensory play, our infants and toddlers build essential early skills in communication, coordination, physical growth, and social awareness.

Every milestone, from first words to independent feeding, is celebrated and supported with warmth and encouragement so that each child's potential is met.

We value strong partnerships with families and provide regular updates through daily reflections, photos, and personal check-ins. Parents are welcomed into the learning journey, with open communication, flexible transitions, and opportunities to contribute to their child’s experience.
