at Melton Early Learning in 2015. I have worked with children from birth to five years old, implementing experiences and strategies to support and enhance each child&#8217;s learning and development. My passion has always been about supporting children in their early years and helping them achieve their goals. We work closely with families to ensure a smooth transition into our service and prepare children for their move to school. <\/p> <p>I love the connections I make with every child and the bonds we form. In my career, I have learned that each child is unique, and a single approach does not work for every child. We need to take the time to know each child as an individual to better support their learning, engage them in meaningful conversations, and interact with them effectively. <\/p> <p>Attending a dedicated early childhood education and care service offers many benefits. We provide detailed explanations of what the children are learning and how we plan to support them in challenging themselves or reaching their goals. I take the time to communicate with all families so they understand our philosophy and how we implement it to support both children and families. We maintain an open-door policy, allowing families to discuss any matters with me or another educator at their convenience. We ensure open communication is respected, and families feel supported throughout their early learning journey. <\/p> <p>I look forward to welcoming your family to our Melton early education centre. <\/p>                                                    <\/div>\n                                                                                                            <a href=\"#\" class=\"g8-centre-managers__slide__read-more\"><span>Read <span\n                                                                    class=\"more\">more<\/span><span class=\"less\">less<\/span><\/span><\/a>\n                                                                                                                                                <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                                                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"g8-slider-pagination-container\">\n                                <div class=\"g8-centre-managers__pagination g8-slider-pagination\"><\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                            \n                                                <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-star-two\"><\/i>\n                        <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-three-lines\"><\/i>\n                        <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-book\"><\/i>\n                        <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-g8-music\"><\/i>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n\n    <section id=\"g8-icon-card_8_66b99f2477b7c\" class=\"g8-icon-card  \">\n        <div class=\"g8-container\">\n            <div class=\"g8-row\">\n                <div class=\"g8-col\">\n                    <div class=\"g8-icon-card__container g8-block-container\">\n                        <div class=\"g8-icon-card__header g8-block-header\">\n                                                            <h2 class=\"g8-icon-card__title\">Our innovative early learning programs<\/h2>\n                                                    <\/div>\n                                                    <div class=\"g8-icon-card__description g8-block-content\"><p>At our early learning centre in Melton, our play-based curriculum is guided by the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), supporting children to learn through play, exploration and discovery.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                                                                            <div class=\"g8-icon-card__cards swiper\">\n                                <div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n                                                                            <div\n                                            class=\"g8-icon-card__card swiper-slide lg-one-fourth\">\n                                            <div class=\"g8-icon-card__card__icon-container\">\n                                                <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-leaf\"><\/i>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                            <h4 class=\"g8-icon-card__card__title\">Sustainability<\/h4>\n                                            <p class=\"g8-icon-card__card__description\">All rooms participate in daily sustainable practices, and each month, we enjoy a group activity focused on sustainability.

Through intentional teaching and structured play, children develop literacy, numeracy, and self-help skills, which help them feel confident and capable as they prepare for school.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                                                \n                                                                                                    <div class=\"g8-slider__buttons-group\">\n                                                                                                                                                                                    <a href=\"\/childcare-and-early-education\/kindergarten-preschool\" class=\"g8-slider__button\"\n                                                                    target=\"\"\n                                                                    title=\"Our kindergarten rooms\"><span>Our kindergarten rooms<\/span><\/a>\n                                                                                                                                                                        <\/div>\n                                                                                            <\/div>\n                                            <div class=\"g8-slider__slide-preview\">\n                                                <span>\n                                                                                                            Previous:                                                         Pre-kinder                                                                                                    <\/span>\n\n                                                <span>\n                                                                                                            &nbsp;\n                                                                                                    <\/span>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                                                    <\/div>\n                                <div class=\"g8-slider-pagination-container\">\n                                    <div class=\"g8-slider__pagination g8-slider-pagination\"><\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"g8-slider__prev-button\"><i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-round-arrow-left\"><\/i><\/div>\n                            <div class=\"g8-slider__next-button\"><i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-round-arrow-right\"><\/i><\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n\n    <section id=\"g8-image-content_12_66b99f2477b83\" class=\"g8-image-content g8-block-container  \">\n        <div class=\"g8-container\">\n            <div class=\"g8-row\">\n                <div class=\"g8-col\">\n                    <div class=\"g8-image-content__container image-right\">\n                        <div class=\"g8-image-content__inner-container--image\">\n                                                            <picture class=\"g8-image-content__image\"><source media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.earlylearningservices.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/els-centre-kindergarten-program.jpg\"><source media=\"(min-width: 320px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.earlylearningservices.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/els-centre-kindergarten-program-500x333.avif\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.earlylearningservices.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/els-centre-kindergarten-program.jpg\" alt=\"ELS-centre-kindergarten-program\" width=\"648\" height=\"432\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/picture>                                                                                                                                        <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"g8-image-content__inner-container--content\">\n                                                                                        <h2 class=\"g8-image-content__title g8-block-subtitle\">Victorian Government-approved Kindergarten program<\/h2>\n                                                                                        <div class=\"g8-image-content__content g8-block-wysiwyg\"><p>Our kindergarten programs are tailored to meet your child\u2019s individual learning needs across numeracy, literacy, emotional and social development, resilience, and self-regulation.<\/p>\n<p>Our early learning centre offers the VIC Government-approved Kindergarten program, supporting your child\u2019s development and well-being from now, at school and beyond.

We use Individual Learning Plans to guide each child\u2019s journey, developed in partnership with families through our \u201cAspirations for Your Child\u201d process, ensuring that each child\u2019s goals reflect their strengths, interests, and family priorities. <\/p>\n<p>Our trained and supportive team works alongside IPC workers, including psychologists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, and social workers, to provide additional support when needed. For children with additional needs or those learning English as an additional language, we offer access to Kindergarten Inclusion Support (KIS), additional educators, and inclusive practices embedded throughout our program. With team members who speak a range of languages, we are able to connect meaningfully with children and families, ensuring everyone feels valued, supported, and understood.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

Couldn&#039;t recommend this centre enough!                                            <\/span>\n                                                                                <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                                                    <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide swiper-slide\">\n                                <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__content-container\">\n                                    <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__header\">\n                                        <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__meta\">\n                                            <h3 class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__author\">\n                                                Jayden Dean                                            <\/h3>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__rating\">\n                                        \n            <div class=\"stars-container g8-google-reviews__stars-container\">\n                <div class=\"stars empty\">\n                    <div class=\"stars full\"><i class=\"icon-star icon-star-solid\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star icon-star-solid\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star icon-star-solid\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star icon-star-solid\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star icon-star-solid\"><\/i><\/div>\n                    <i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i><i class=\"icon-star\"><\/i>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>                                    <\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__slide__text\">\n                                        My son loves this daycare always bring a smile to his face coming here can&#039;t recommend this place enough, friendly staff that always go above and beyond to make sure my boy is looked after and has a great time there                                    <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n\n                    <!-- Pagination -->\n                    <div class=\"g8-slider-pagination-container\">\n                        <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__nav g8-google-reviews__nav--mobile\">\n                            <button class=\"g8-google-reviews__nav-btn prev\"><i\n                                    class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-round-arrow-left\"><\/i><\/button>\n                        <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__pagination g8-slider-pagination\"><\/div>\n                        <div class=\"g8-google-reviews__nav g8-google-reviews__nav--mobile\">\n                            <button class=\"g8-google-reviews__nav-btn next\"><i\n                                    class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-round-arrow-right\"><\/i><\/button>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\n                    <div class=\"g8-popup modal fade type-text\"\n                id=\"g8-google-reviews-disclaimer-modal-g8-google-reviews_2_6a0cf758a7d60\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\n                data-bs-keyboard=\"false\">\n                <div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\">\n                    <div class=\"modal-content\">\n                        <div class=\"modal-header\">\n                            <h3 class=\"modal-title\">\n                                Source: Google Business Profile                            <\/h3>\n                            <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-close-circle\" data-bs-dismiss=\"modal\"><\/i>\n                        <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"modal-body g8-block-wysiwyg\">\n                            <p>G8 Education does not control or endorse the content of individual reviews.

If the centre is the right fit and a place is available, you\u2019ll receive an enrolment offer for your child. If a place is not currently available in your child\u2019s age group, we can add your child to the waitlist and keep you updated.<\/p>\n<p>To finalise your enrolment, you\u2019ll complete an online enrolment form through a secure link sent by our Family Support Team. You\u2019ll also need to provide key details and documents, including your child\u2019s birth certificate, Medicare details, immunisation history statement and, if eligible, your Child Care Subsidy details.<\/p>\n<p>Before your child\u2019s first day, you may be invited to attend a Stay and Play session. This gives your child time to explore the centre, meet their educators, and start feeling comfortable in their new environment. Once your paperwork is complete, your child is ready to start their early learning journey with us.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/family-information\/how-to-enrol\">Read our step-by-step guide on how to enrol here.<\/a><\/p>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n                                                                    <div class=\"g8-accordion__item accordion-item\">\n                                        <h2 class=\"g8-accordion__item__header accordion-header\">\n                                            <button class=\"g8-accordion__item__header__button accordion-button collapsed\"\n                                                type=\"button\" data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\"\n                                                data-bs-target=\"#flush-collapse-g8-accordion_20_66b99f2477b90-2\"\n                                                aria-expanded=\"false\"\n                                                aria-controls=\"flush-collapse-g8-accordion_20_66b99f2477b90-2\">\n                                                <span\n                                                    class=\"g8-accordion__item__title\">What can I do to help my child prepare for starting care?<\/span>\n                                                <i class=\"g8-icon g8-icon-alt-arrow-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>\n                                            <\/button>\n                                        <\/h2>\n                                        <div id=\"flush-collapse-g8-accordion_20_66b99f2477b90-2\"\n                                            class=\"accordion-collapse collapse\"\n                                            data-bs-parent=\"#g8-accordion_20_66b99f2477b90-items\">\n                                            <div class=\"g8-accordion__item__content g8-block-wysiwyg\">\n                                                <p>Starting child care is a big milestone, and a little preparation can help your child feel more comfortable and confident.<\/p>\n<p>Before your child\u2019s first day, you can talk positively about their new centre, explain what their day might look like, and practise small routines such as packing their bag, saying goodbye, washing hands and sitting down for meals.
