Smithfield Child Care Centre

Welcome to Smithfield Child Care Centre. Please read through the following information about our centre to give you an idea of how we operate and what is included in our service to you and your family.

It is our practise to provide a warm, responsive and caring environment for all children, and one in which families can feel confident in the knowledge that their children are well cared for in a supportive, safe setting which stimulates their individual growth and development.

Your children are encouraged to experiment, explore and ask questions about the activities and the environment that surrounds them. They are able to choose between a wide range of activities, providing them with a range of experiences, so that they can grow and develop at their own pace.

We have adopted the Emergent or Negotiated Curriculum across the centre wherein children and staff work together to determine what experiences and activities they become involved in each day and how these same experiences are extended into projects and exciting ventures! We utilise digital photography to ensure you have easy access to what is happening during our day. We also invite you to share your thoughts and ideas for inclusion during our day.

Support is available for any additional needs (developmental, cultural, language etc) that may present and we ensure that you are fully advised prior to any steps being taken to assist your child in these areas.

As parents you are your child’s first and most important teacher and we value your input into the programming and the operation of the centre. Please feel free to spend whatever time you can with us.

We want you and your family to feel welcome here. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to speak with me. I value your feedback, input and constructive comments.
