Like most services in our industry we are closed on public holidays. Fees do still apply to these days as staffing and operational costs are still in place. Make up days are offered if there is availablility.



What do I need to bring?

Change of clothes for that particular season, and another item of clothing that will accommodate your child if the weather changes. Set of sheets (if your child sleeps), sun hat, any special creams (labelled), nappies for the day, bottles (labelled) and formula, comforter. We also ask that any personal items are labelled to ensure nothing is lost.



What if my child is sick?

We understand that children get sick from time to time so we are sure parents would appreciate our concern for protecting the health of all the children attending the centre. We have a variety of practices to keep our clean and hygienic to minimise the spread of illness, we do ask that if your child is sick they do not attend. Please speak to our office regarding our illness policy.
