Children develop a sense of belonging, and self-esteem necessary for them to make meaningful connections with other children and adults.

Babies and Toddlers

Our qualified and experienced staff nurture and care for each baby's individual needs.

“We love how the educators give all their time and attention to the upbringing of our baby. The educators are like family now, and know the needs of our baby, just as well as we do. So happy our baby is in the safe hands of the educators at Glandore Child Care Centre.”

Junior Toddlers provides a safe, nuturing environment so walking babies can explore and learn

“The educators at Glandore Child Care are exceptional. They take time to get to know each child, their personalities, needs, language and routine. They give comfort and affection, teach the children and encourage growth in so many ways. My children have developed in leaps and bounds, under the watchful eyes of the educators. I highly recommend Glandore.”.

Children thrive in the Toddler Room, develop physical, social, and self-help skills, and grow in confidence.

“Our second daughter is now attending Glandore. We were so happy with care our first daughter received, we didn’t consider taking her anywhere else. All of the carers are such kind people and the individual care they give each child is amazing. We are so impressed with the activities arranged and the variety and quality of the food the children enjoy. Thank you for your amazing work.”

We collaborate with parents to ensure each baby's routine is followed and their development is closely monitored.

“I chose to send my daughter to Glandore because I had heard wonderful things about the centre and the staff. I am now the one that recommends the centre. The staff are so lovely. I feel like they really care about my daughter. I also love seeing the photos on Seesaw throughout the day, to know my daughter is having a great day.”

In Junior Toddlers walking babies further develop in communication,social and physical skills

“As you know we are moving to Sydney because of work. We enjoyed out time in Glandore childcare which is a real family. It will be very sad to say goodbye. We spent three days in Sydney last week and visited six childcare centres. It is very hard to find a centre at the same quality level as Glandore.”

Our busy Toddler Room fosters learning dispositions such as curiosity and creativity

“The Centre is lovely, and feels very welcoming. It was recommended to me by a friend. Your centre values developing a loving and caring nature in children, and leads them on the right path. I love getting updates about activities each day. My child never wants to go when I come to pick him up.”

I chose Glandore Child Care Centre as I had heard wonderful things about it.

Now I am the one recommending it. The staff are so loving and caring with my daughter.
I love seeing the daily photos and knowing my daughter is having a great day.

Parent

We believe families are the most important care providers and educators in a child’s life. We continuously seek family participation and feedback, through daily interactions, meetings and on-line reporting.

Thank you to the wonderful team at Glandore for caring for our children for six years. It is such a happy friendly environment. The children have a solid foundation for starting school. They have a passion for learning, confidence and the social skills to thrive in school. We could not be more grateful.
