As new parents we wanted to do our research so we could obtain the best possible care and learning for our little one after many months of looking at different child care centers we found that Woodland Tarniet stood out above the rest with their multi cultural staff, friendly atmosphere and professionalism that we saw from the moment we walked in. The staff in the Khushee room made us feel very comfortable as we were worried about our little one being able to settle into the new environment but within minutes we could feel our little one was happy with the heart felt care thanks to Ying, Bimla, Jayne, Ayushi and all the educators in Khushee room. Until now with their continued updates, developments and good routine we are extremely happy and this is why we felt that this was definitely the child Centre for us once again girls thank you for a great job and making our family complete.

About the Curriculum

About the Curriculum

Woodlands provides a learning environment that supports children to thrive as they build a sense of being and becoming. Educators understand the importance of the development, and celebration of individual personalities to help create a sense of belonging where children have the confidence and resilience to play, learn and explore.

Nursery

6 weeks - 12 months

The Nursery classrooms are beautifully designed, safe, and inviting places where infants can thrive while being supported by experienced educators to reach developmental milestones, learn about their world and develop a sense of belonging.

From exploring different textures and sensory activities, to making music and singing, enjoying physical development through tummy time, to exploring the world of food and the outdoors, children are given every opportunity to thrive and enjoy their days.

Centre philosophy

Centre philosophy

Our educational philosophy focuses on child development and learning. Our programs are designed to adapt to children’s needs, interests, and routines. With a team of experienced educators and teachers at various campuses, our childcare services engages your child in meaningful activities.

We believe every child is born with creativity, and childhood educators’ purpose is to nurture this. When your child’s imagination is encouraged to develop, they will become better problem solvers and communicators with improved social and emotional skills.

My toddler attends this daycare and we have seen her thrive in their environment . The educators are prompt, approachable and friendly. Janet has been exceptional as the room leader for Amour room where my daughter goes. Janet and the educators in this room helped my daughter settle in, formulate a structured learning plan for my daughter which has helped her develop immensely .

We’ve had a great experience with this childcare for our daughter, Aleena. The educators are so kind and genuinely care about the kids. I drop off my daughter knowing she’ll be well taken care off. Aleena is always happy to go and has grown so much in confidence and social skills. The centre feels safe and welcoming, and communication has been great. We’re really happy with our choice and would definitely recommend it!!
