• Child Early Learning Centre Lockridge is a not for profit childcare centre providing high quality early education and care.
• Our skilled educators will work with you and your children to help them explore, discover, experiement and create their own learning pathways.
• Our natural environments provide children with enjoyable and stimulating learning opportunities.

Our Philosophy 

Underpinned by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, our philosophy is to include all children in our Early Learning Centre and make a positive contribution to their future success by delivering high quality education and care.

• We acknowledge that contemporary research has made explicit the connection between the quality of relationships in children’s early years and their future positive cognitive and social development.
•  We recognise the importance of quality early childhood education and care practices and settings and acknowledge this is a priority in providing children with stimulating play experiences and learning environments which will positively enable all children to develop to their full potential.
• We plan stimulating indoor and outdoor environments based on play, children’s strengths and interests, that support all aspects of children’s learning and provoke exploration, intrigue and discovery as this promotes opportunities for sustained and collaborative learning.
•  We work in partnerships with children, families and the community to develop and plan a curriculum that supports a child’s sense of belonging, being and becoming.
• Families are supported to provide their individual contributions and personal experiences as we recognise that good practice in early childhood education and care incorporates these contributions and experiences to develop inclusive care practices and play environments and build our cultural competence.
• We are responsive to children’s needs and initiate positive engagement with their families to develop trust and respect to strengthen collaborative relationships.
• We recognise the importance in working in partnership with families and that this enhances better outcomes for their children. 

Quality Educators 

Early childhood is an important part of your child's life. Children learn more in their first five years of life than they will in their remaining years. By the age of three, children have already developed life long values and attitudes about the world in which they live.

That's why our educators are experienced and skilled early childhood professionals, who recognise the importance of your child's early years, and who have the skills and knowledge to foster your child's overall development.

The members of our professional education and care team hold a wide range of qualifications in early childhood, and their expertise is highly regarded within the early childhood community.

Our commitment to quality means that you can be confident that, while in our care, your child is in expert hands. We develop and implement our own innovative evidence based programs, ensuring that they are contemporary and fun.
