Stork’s Early Years Child Care Centre is committed to creating a safe, warm and loving environment, where children can grow and develop in a holistic manner. At our centre, we acknowledge that all families are unique and have individual needs and expectations of child care. We recognize that the transition from home routines to child care routines are often difficult on families. Communication between our centre and families is key to developing a strong relationship. Updates between the centre staff and families are to be maintained daily via our HImama App. Stork's Child Care is compliant with all public health recommendations including up to date COVID 19 protocols. Families will receive updates as we do. Keeping the children and Educators healthy is our priority. Adequate nutrition is required for optimal immunity, productivity and physical and mental development. Good eating habits start from an early age. It is important to Stork's, that children not only eat healthy foods, but learn to love food and how it's made. Our food is home cooked and prepared with quality ingredients. All of our meat and eggs are obtained from local farmers. (Acres of Dreams)
Our centre has a seasonal garden where we grow fresh produce. The children can help our staff water the garden and watch how food comes from the earth. At Stork’s Early Years Child Care Centre we follow the current curriculum "How Does Learning Happen", and all regulations as set out by the Child Care and Early Years Act, 2014. We view all children as capable, competent and rich in potential. We will help build your child’s confidence and self-esteem, by treating them as unique individuals and encouraging them to express and engage themselves in day to day activities. We believe in involving the community in child care and are open to suggestions for activities with the children. Stork's Early Years Child Care Centre is currently accepting enrolment.
