I have been working in early childhood education since 2009 and joined the centre in 2013. I have worked in a range of roles including Room Leader, Educational Leader, Assistant Centre Manager, and now Centre Manager. Throughout my career, I have learned that every child is unique. Children learn in different ways, reach milestones at different times, and bring their own personalities into the learning environment. This has taught me to be flexible, to listen to children, and to adapt learning experiences to suit each child’s individual needs and stage of development. I aim to be present for children as they learn and explore, encouraging them to think through challenges and find their own solutions rather than solving problems for them. This helps build confidence, independence, and resilience. When speaking with families, I explain that while children learn a lot at home, early childhood education and care provides additional support through educators who are trained in child development and learning approaches. In a centre environment, children build social skills, develop across key learning areas, and participate in programs that help prepare them for school and for being part of a wider community. I often say that it takes a village to raise a child, and we are proud to be part of that village for our families. Our team at Little Angels Bunbury is a strong and supportive group of educators with a range of qualifications and experience. We also have long-standing team members who have been with the centre for more than five and even ten years. Our educators communicate well with each other and with families, and are caring and committed to supporting every child. We support families by maintaining open communication and listening to their feedback and ideas. We value family input and aim to incorporate their perspectives into our routines and learning experiences where possible. Families are always welcome to join us in activities, read stories, or spend time in the centre, helping us build strong relationships and a connected community. Read moreless ## Our innovative early learning programs At our early learning centre in Bunbury, our play-based curriculum is guided by the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), supporting children to learn through play, exploration and discovery. #### Sustainability We promote sustainability by incorporating loose parts play in our outdoor areas, using materials like tyres, pipes, and pots, and offering a loose parts play library. From 18 months old, children can start to self-serve, scrape their bowls into organic bins, and recycle water onto our plants. #### Social and emotional learning Children develop a strong sense of identity as they feel safe, secure and supported, building confidence, resilience and a positive sense of self. Through group activities, conversations and play, children learn to interact with others with care, empathy and respect, building positive relationships and friendships. #### Music and movement Our evidence-based Rhythm and Movement for Self-Regulation (RAMSR) program is designed to develop fundamental skills that help support children’s self-regulation, memory, and concentration. It is an innovative approach to holistic learning, development and well-being in early childhood. #### Exploration and problem solving Educators introduce open-ended materials and invitations to explore, such as building, measuring and experimenting. Through shared conversations and investigation, children develop curiosity, problem-solving and critical thinking skills. ##### Book a tour to experience our centre today [Book a tour](/book-a-tour?centre=little-angels-early-learning-centre-bunbury) ## Age-appropriate early learning ### 6 weeks – 2 years Nursery ### Nursery 6 weeks – 2 years In our nursery environment, educators focus on building strong, secure and respectful relationships so babies feel safe, settled and supported as they explore the world around them.

We encourage families to contact the centre directly for the most up-to-date information. ## Frequently asked questions ## A centre tour is a convenient way to experience the childcare centre of your choice and meet with our qualified educators at a time that is suitable for your family’s schedule. [Click here to book a tour online.](/book-a-tour) On the day of the tour, you can observe practices and interactions within the centre environment. You’ll be able to see all the rooms and playgrounds, ask the team members any questions you have in mind, and get all the information you need to make the best decision for your child. ## Enrolling is simple, and our Family Support Team will guide you through each step. First, find your local centre and book a tour so you can meet the team and explore the learning environment. If the centre is the right fit and a place is available, you’ll receive an enrolment offer for your child. If a place is not currently available in your child’s age group, we can add your child to the waitlist and keep you updated. To finalise your enrolment, you’ll complete an online enrolment form through a secure link sent by our Family Support Team. You’ll also need to provide key details and documents, including your child’s birth certificate, Medicare details, immunisation history statement and, if eligible, your Child Care Subsidy details. Before your child’s 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. [Read our step-by-step guide on how to enrol here.](/family-information/how-to-enrol) ## Starting child care is a big milestone, and a little preparation can help your child feel more comfortable and confident. Before your child’s 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. You may also like to visit the centre with your child, meet their educators and ask our team about what to bring on the first day. When your child starts, our educators will take the time to get to know your child’s routine, interests, comfort items and individual needs. Settling in looks different for every child, so we work closely with families to help children feel safe, supported and ready to learn. [Learn more about our Settling-in Program.](/family-information/settling-in-program) ## Most of our child care and early education centres offer nappies and wipes, sunscreen and hats, as well as nutritious meals prepared by our in-house cook. Some centres also provide sheets and formula, so you may not need to remember to pack them. For nursery children, be sure to bring: nappy rash cream, dummies, bottles and teats, comfort toys or blankets, three spare outfits and spare socks. For toddlers and preschool or kindergarten-aged children, it’s best to bring: spare underwear, water bottle or sippy cup, sun hat, closed-toe shoes, two spare outfits and spare socks. Plus, anything else your individual child may need, such as breast milk, a sleeping bag, a comforter or medication. It’s best to speak to your centre of choice for a full list of everything included. ## Early Learning Services uses Xplor Home as our [family communication app](/family-information/family-communication). It is the best and easiest way to keep track of your child’s day. After you enrol your child with the centre, you can utilise Xplor Home to book child care days, manage your account, receive the photographs that capture your child’s learning, learn about your child’s progress, as well as keep up-to-date with upcoming centre events and important information. ## If your child shows signs of an infectious illness when they arrive at the centre or becomes sick during the day, you may be notified that you need to make alternative arrangements or pick up your child from the centre and keep them home until they are no longer infectious. While we understand that this can be inconvenient, Early Learning Services is committed to maintaining a healthy environment and reducing the risk of infection for all children. Under the Child Care Subsidy (CCS), families are allowed 42 absence days per child, per financial year. These can be taken for any reason, including public holidays and when children are sick, without requiring families to provide documentation. ## Contact us We look forward to welcoming your family.
