Toddlerhood is an incredible time of exploration and discovery, as toddlers gain an increasing sense of self and understanding of the world around them. At Only About Children, we see every child as an individual and recognise that the early years have a significant impact on their development and future learning. Our approach to childcare goes beyond education to help your toddler reach their potential in all development areas from health and wellbeing, to creative expression.

Freedom to Explore

Our dedicated toddler rooms are the perfect environment for young children to freely learn and explore through creative expression. In a calm and welcoming atmosphere, there are abundant interesting challenges and resources to spark your child’s curiosity and love of learning.

Nurturing Educators

Our Educators carefully plan for a supportive environment that invites active, play-based learning with open ended materials and experiences where toddlers can discover their world capably, safely and independently.

A Love for Learning

Our unique Grow Toddler Curriculum is the basis for essential early education and designed to develop positive learning dispositions, skills and concepts. It is developed to meet the individual needs of each child with a strong focus on:

Our enhanced focus on Physical Activity, Nutrition & Health (Speech, Occupational Therapy & Vision Screening) ensures that we provide children with the best possible preparation for their learning & life.

Families & Community

We see family as the first, most influential person/teacher in a child’s life and we understand the importance of strong partnerships with our families and communities. Through active, two-way communications with our families we can understand and meet the unique needs of every child in our care.

In fact, keeping our families across every child’s individual development is so important, we ensure every child has an individual learning and development plan.
