Childcare and Daycare Clayton

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 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 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 build strong partnerships with families through consistent updates, clear goals, and regular communication. Parents stay involved with photos, learning stories, and ongoing communication, ensuring their child’s journey mirrors the comfort of home.

Each age group has a dedicated, cot-safe rest space with soft lighting and calming routines to support healthy sleep habits and individual rest needs.

In our outdoor play space, children are supported with shaded areas, soft-fall surfaces, and safe equipment for crawling, climbing, and water play, creating opportunities for secure physical exploration.
