We believe that children learn through experimenting and interacting with the environment that surrounds them.
It is important that educators provide a space for all children that is safe, happy and they are well cared for.
These experiences nurture each child in acquiring a love for learning. It is important to see the child as a whole and develop all aspects of the child’s physical, emotional, social, creative, cognitive and language.
The staff at Balmain Care for Kids provide a stimulating and friendly atmosphere.
Children are provided with a positive, safe and caring environment that meets their individual needs.
We believe that a balance between intentional teaching and play-based activities is essential to children’s learning and fosters every aspect of the “whole child”.
