Story House Early Learning Roma Street (Brisbane CBD)

The staff at Story House are amazing. They go above and beyond to not only provide exceptional care to the children who go there, but to also make parents feel at ease with putting their children into daycare. The staff also make sure you are always up to date and well informed about your little ones' day/what's happening at the service. We cannot recommend Story House enough.

Story House Early Learning Roma Street understands that promoting children’s nutrition and health is an important aspect of providing a quality child care and early education service.  It is crucial that children are offered healthy, nutritious meals throughout the day and enjoy social, positive mealtime experiences and discussions as part of their overall growth, development and knowledge.

The centre’s menu is prepared in consultation with families, educators, the children and recognised authorities such as Nutrition Australia. The centre can accommodate individual dietary requirements due to family preferences, cultural background, allergies or food intolerances, by working closely and in consultation with families to make sure individual children’s needs are met. 

A positive attitude towards healthy eating is embedded into the curriculum and daily routines, for instance with their  interactive cooking classes; menu development; discussion of food choices; explaining the role of food and culture; educators modeling healthy eating; and making meal times a pleasant, social occasion.

At Story House, the educators believe that each child is on their own unique journey that shapes the person they are and who they will become. Just like chapters in a book, they understand that each child steps through their ‘story’ at their own pace and in their own time.

The team at Story House believes that learning is a lifelong journey and that early childhood education and care provides the foundation for learning for life. Children make sense of the world around them through the use of processes such as exploration, collaboration and problem solving across all aspects of the curriculum. They develop dispositions such as curiosity, persistence and creativity and use play to investigate, imagine and explore ideas, follow and extend their own interests.

The educators are key to supporting children on their journey and believe that relationships with families and community are essential for supporting children to be global citizens and helping them to reach their potential.

Story House Roma Street Brisbane City understands the importance of child-educator relationships, which is why they capped their enrolments at no more than 40 children. This is less than half the size of other child care centres in the Brisbane CBD. Their size  allows them to build strong personal connections, getting to know the families and developing positive, caring relationships between educators and children.

I am passionate about health and well-being for the children, families and our educators. I am incredibly passionate about the mental and physical wellbeing of all. Whether it be from healthy eating and physical activity, to emotional regulation and mindfulness. I like to have fun! We spend such a large portion of our lives at our workplace. Why not make it a fun and enjoyable time.. after all, we get to spend our time educating and caring for children who know exactly how to have fun!
