Our goal in the kindergarten year is to prepare children and families for a smooth transition to primary school. Although we offer both childcare and kindergarten in our centres, the two are different. We offer childcare for children aged from 6 weeks old for families who require care for their children. While we offer educational programs to younger children, our 3-year-old and 4-year-old Kindergarten programs offer a structured approach to the children’s education. Our programs follow the National Quality Standards, and our Kindergarten educational program is designed by a fully qualified early childhood teacher. Our teachers comply with comprehensive knowledge of the Early Years Learning Framework and Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework.
Sports also allows her to practice different skills in a fun and engaging way. Daniela is almost five years old and can’t wait for today’s carpentry experience - she loves building things! Carpentry experiences allow Daniela and her friends to extend their learning through real-life experiences. While participating in carpentry, Daniela is learning to problem solve, experiment and predict. She is also improving her hand eye coordination, manipulative skills and muscular strength. We strive to offer high community involvement with opportunities for the children to get out and about in the local community as well as developing the partnership with the school.
Our transition to school program prepares children for a smooth start to primary school. Complimentary hat & wetbag are provided to help your child feel part of the Eden Academy community. Inspire Early Learning Journey is a private entity based in the heart of Melbourne, offering premium services and professional facilities Australia wide.
I am incredibly passionate about fostering growth, wellbeing, and confidence during these formative years. I believe that for a child to excel, they must first feel celebrated for who they are. To achieve this, I place immense value on building strong, transparent relationships with our families. You are your child’s first teacher, and I view our role as a partnership—working hand-in-hand to support your child’s unique journey. We have 2 children in the centre and have always found them to be both caring and helpful when needed. Both of our children enjoy their time at the centre and love the educators they work with on their visits.
I love watching educators grow daily to provide quality care, finding their passion and being able to support them in this. The daycare has been amazing, it is a safe and welcome environment for my two kids and site staff are really supportive to meet the children needs. The kids are grown with confidence and feels like home, the staff are very friendly. The primarily child-directed, play-based curriculum ensures that the children are engaged in their learning. They are encouraged to take the lead, developing their negotiation, risk taking, problem solving and social skills. The educators observe the children and help to challenge them by extending their learning and interests.
