Childcare and Daycare Braeside

Our Childcare and Early Years Program

At Little Scribblers, our early years program is built on strong relationships, consistency, and care. For our infants and toddlers, we aim to provide a calm, nurturing environment where we prioritise emotional wellbeing and developmental milestones.

Our dedicated educators establish meaningful connections with the children, creating stability and trust that help them feel supported. These relationships are key to fostering confidence and emotional security throughout their formative years.

Our play-based approach incorporates sensory exploration, physical development, and early communication with age-appropriate resources and engaging routines. We fill each child’s day with opportunities to learn through discovery, movement, music, and meaningful social interactions, incorporating their interests and preferences.

We collaborate closely with families, offering regular updates, shared objectives, and open communication. Parents remain engaged through photos, learning stories, and conversations with educators, making the centre feel like an extension of home life.
