Parents are welcome to visit their child at any time during the day and also to become involved with the Committee of Management of the centre of their choice.

Staff communication with parents is encouraged so that family values are respected and partnerships formed thus assisting seamless transition of a happy child from centre to home

• Family Friendly Environment

To ensure the safety and well being of the children in our care, most of the centres are located off main roads and close to public transport. The layout and maintenance of the buildings, furniture, outdoor areas and play equipment are kept to stringent industry standards, and are designed to reflect a welcoming, homely atmosphere.

Each community based child care centre has clear policies and guidelines which are reviewed, updated and shared with parents. These cover such issues as health, anti-bias, behaviour management and centre philosophy.

As in your own home, particular attention is given to the provision of well balanced, nutritious diets, with an emphasis on fresh food, avoiding additives wherever possible. Special diets are catered for.

Children from all cultures are welcomed and traditions respected; and children with special needs are integrated successfully into everyday life in community based child care centres.

• Children’s Interests

The very best interest of the children in our care, are foremost – South Australia's community based child care centres’ philosophies include the word FUN!
