Kinder is a crucial time in a young child’s life.
It is important for providers to work with children and families to provide a strong education foundation that takes children through to school.
Family-owned Narre Warren Early Learning Centre and Kindergarten is focused on doing just that.
Owner Sandra Fynmore said the centre provided high-quality care and educational programs to children from six weeks to five years of age.
“We provide nurturing, stimulating learning environments using natural resources to promote children’s learning to help them discover the world around them by using their imagination,” she said.
“We create our programs based on children’s interests, ideas, strengths and stages of development to support and guide their learning.
“Programs focus on continually extending children’s play and using their own interests to build and develop purposeful learning.
“The kindergarten program is focused on building children’s readiness for school and developing their social-emotional understandings and skills.”
The centre has outdoor furniture and equipment in spacious, shady yards, and all meals are cooked fresh each day.
But centre manager Katherine Lester said the educators were its most valuable assets
“They are experienced, passionate, dedicated and warm and aim to provide the best opportunities for children to succeed in life,” she said.
“They are committed to ensuring each child feels safe, secure and in care has fun while at the centre.
“We pride ourselves on the quality and passion of our experienced team.”
Bachelor-qualified kinder teachers work five days per week running funded, highly-educational kinder for three and four-year-olds.
The program includes excursions, incursions, support from preschool field officers, school readiness funding, extra learning materials such as Letterland, and much more.
“It is extremely important at Narre Warren Early Learning Centre and Kindergarten that we provide children with consistency and high-quality education and care,” Ms Lester said.
“We are committed to each individual child in a nurturing way, enabling them to develop with varied learning and fun in a stimulating environment.”
“Our open door policy invites parents to always be willing to discuss issues.
“We believe effective and open communication is essential.
“It is important to us that families feel comfortable and engaging at the centre.
“Establishing trusting secure relationships with families is our top priority.”
