At Birralee Child Care Centre we understand that learning through play is the best way to allow children to develop at their own pace.Our dedicated Educators go beyond and above to ensure a holistic learning program is provided for all children, meaning we provide a program that engages and extends every child's social, emotional, physical, creative and cognitive development. Birralee Childcare is registered to provide care for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years, between the hours of 7am to 6pm. Our Educators use the Early Years Learning Framework, providing your child with a sense of Being Belonging and Becoming. We also provide a Queensland approved kindergarten program, run by our highly dedicated Early Childhood Teacher. Our kindergarten program runs during school terms, 8.40am to 2.40 pm. Your kindergarten child is also cared for before and after these hours by Educators working with the Early Childhood Teacher, this format allows you the benefit of kindergarten with the ease of drop off and pick up times that suit you. We at Birralee understand that you are the child's first teacher and therefore value your input. We have an open door policy and encourage your participation. You can be as active as you choose and participate within the program, fundraising or on the management committee. Our Educators provide a positive and inclusive program, where your child will have the opportunity to participate and contribute to their environment.
