Childcare and Daycare Braeside

Our Comprehensive Childcare Program

At Little Scribblers, our early years program is guided by trust, consistency, and attentive care. We aim to offer infants and toddlers a calm, caring atmosphere that nurtures their emotional wellbeing and helps them progress through each stage of development.

Our experienced team of educators build strong relationships with the children, providing consistency and trust so they feel a sense of belonging. This foundation is vital for developing confidence and security in these early years.

Our play-based learning style blends sensory experiences, physical growth, and early communication using age-appropriate resources and interactive routines. Each day is enriched with discovery, movement, music, and social connections shaped around the children’s own interests.

We work in close partnership with families, providing daily updates, shared goals, and genuine communication. Parents stay connected through photos, learning stories, and open dialogue with educators, ensuring your child’s experience feels like a natural extension of home.
