Childcare and Daycare Summer Hill

Our Early Childhood Day Care Program (0–3 Years)

At Little Scribblers, our Early Years Program for children aged 0–3 provides a safe, nurturing, and natural space where infants and toddlers feel valued and cared for. Using the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), educators build strong bonds through predictable routines, responsive care, and sensory experiences that encourage learning.

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.

We celebrate and encourage every achievement, from first words to independent feeding, ensuring each child is nurtured towards reaching their full potential.

Our educators work closely with families, sharing daily updates, photos, and check-ins to build trust and connection. Parents are included in the learning journey through open dialogue, flexible transitions, and chances to contribute to their child’s growth.
