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.

This is a wonderful center offering exceptional childcare and plenty of space for children to play, learn, and grow. The staff are warm, welcoming, and always ready to help. The educators in the Jaguars room are caring, skilled, and incredibly patient with the toddlers! I’m really happy to be doing my placement here and to learn from such an amazing team. It has been my favourite placement because the educators here are incredibly kind and always support my activities with the children. Their encouragement and warmth made me feel welcomed and valued every single day. I truly enjoyed the three weeks I spent in the Jaguars room, and I am so grateful for everything I have learned and experienced here. I sincerely hope that I will have the opportunity to return next year and continue learning alongside such an amazing team.

I recently completed my university placement at Little Scribblers Benaroon Road in the 0–2 year old room, and I had such a positive and rewarding experience. The entire team was incredibly welcoming, supportive, and professional. The educators in the baby room are truly dedicated—they create a warm, nurturing, and safe environment where every child is cared for with so much patience and love. I learned so much from observing their routines, interactions, and the way they build strong, trusting relationships with the children. I felt valued throughout my placement, and the staff were always willing to share their knowledge, answer questions, and guide me through best practices in early childhood education. It was inspiring to see such high-quality care and genuine commitment to each child’s wellbeing and development. I’m very grateful for my time at Little Scribblers and highly recommend this centre to families and students looking for a supportive, professional, and caring environment.

My son has been attending this centre since he was 9 months old and he absolutely loves it. The teachers are all wonderful. He loves Miss Usra, miss Binda and miss Ana. They taught him to potty train as well which I had given up on as it was extremely hard. The creative activities are great with less toys but more creative natural arts..no screen time is a plus.With plenty of parking I highly recommend this centre.

I’ve had such a wonderful learning placement journey at Little Scribblers during my placement. I’m so grateful to all the teachers, mentors, and the principal for their kindness, support, and guidance throughout my time here. The teachers are incredibly patient , empathetic, positive, smiling faces and professional, remarkably when helping new children settle in. It’s inspiring to see how children gradually become more confident, interactive, joyful faces and be brave to express their feelings and needs. The multicultural environment provides so many opportunities for students and children to learn and grow — they become more open-minded, adaptable, and curious to explore new things. This placement experience has been truly valuable and has deepened my understanding of early childhood education. Thank you, Little Scribblers team, for creating such a positive and inclusive environment for both children and teachers. It’s an exceptional experience sparkling my learning journey. I hope all children happy, healthy, knowledgeable and enjoy their every moment at Little Scribblers. =) xoxo

When my son first started daycare, it was quite challenging for him — he didn’t know the routines well and had difficulty communicating in English. Ms Usra was incredibly patient and supportive, helping him adjust and feel comfortable in the new environment. She always paid close attention to his needs and gave us thoughtful advice that truly helped with his development. As first-time parents, we often felt unsure about what to do, but Ms Usra consistently guided and supported both our child and us. We’re so grateful for her kindness, care, and dedication — she has made such a positive impact on our son’s growth and confidence. Not only Ms Usra, but all the other educators have always welcomed our child warmly and made him feel safe and happy every day. Our son has been attending for over a year now, and we couldn’t be more satisfied with the care and love he receives here.

I just had my placement at little scribbler Ashfield centre and I lovedddd it. Staff was very friendly and supportive. I did not once feel that I am someone who did not belong there. Teachers gave every opportunity for students to learn and interact with children and listened openly to all the activity ideas we had to enhance our skills. It’s the safest and most friendly environment I have encountered not only for the little children but for the teachers and students there to learn as well. I would like to thank everyone for making my learning experience so fun and worth it!
