โWeโre going on a shape hunt, weโre going to find some rectanglesโ
The children enjoyed finding different shapes in our backyard ๐ป๐ป
Children are natural investigators ๐๐
I am a nature based Family Day Care service, based in Orana and run through the Nature Alliance FDC scheme.
I believe in learning naturally through holistic enriching experiences such as cooking, gardening, creating, playing, and being.

This is why I LOVE Family Day Care.
One educator to 4 children
I donโt normally post opinions for the reason that I respect that every person has a different way of thinking (that is what makes people amazing)
BUT THISโฆโฆ.
This makes all the difference. With only 4 children I can get to know each child and cater for each childโs unique needs.
I am proud to be a Family Day Care Educator ๐

Simple but effective ๐๐
Yesterday we planted some pea seeds in little paper cups.
I canโt wait to see the childrenโs faces as we watch them grow ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ซ๐ซ๐ซ
๐ก At Bottlebrush family day care I offer a smaller, more personal environment where children are truly known, valued, and supported as individuals ๐ซถ
๐ปWith my experience and knowledge, I am able to build strong relationships with both children and families, really getting to know each child on a deeper level; their routines, rituals, interests, strengths, and what makes them feel safe and secure.
๐ณ The smaller group sizes in my service allow for more meaningful interactions and learning experiences, where children arenโt just part of a large group but are given the time, attention, and support they need to thrive.
๐ I provide wholesome meals and create a warm, nurturing environment that feels calm, welcoming, and intentional ๐ป๐ป
๐ฑ My approach to learning through play is thoughtful and purposeful, with experiences based around childrenโs interests, development, and wellbeing ๐

Yes! Outdoor play is so important!
Who wouldn't want their kids to be happier, more focused and less anxious? (and oh so many more benefits)
