Integricare Northmead Early Learning Centre

Integricare Early Learning Centre Northmead understands that children’s early years are central to their long-term development and assisting families through these years can be life-changing.

The centre has an outstanding team of highly qualified and experienced educators who ‘go the extra mile’ to provide leading child care and early education.

The team proudly welcomes all cultures, and ensures that every child feels safe, secure and valued.

Integricare Early Learning Centre Northmead views families as children’s first educators and believes that it is important to work closely with families as co-educators. Parents are encouraged to provide feedback on children’s needs and interests at any stage.

Educators provide a developmental portfolio for each child that documents their learning, interests and friendship groups. The centre also offers a rich array of information resources and an online parent portal where families can stay up to date with activities and events.

To further support families, the centre organises supported playgroups. This provides a structured and positive learning environment in which children can socialise. It’s also a great way for parents to meet and share their experiences.

Every supported playgroup is facilitated by trained early childhood and family support workers. The team can refer and link families to health and community services and the centre partners with specialist services where needed to give appropriate support.

The centre has Family Workers, who support families with children between the ages of 0 and 8 years. By conducting comprehensive assessments, Family Workers are able to help families identify their immediate needs, support them through a case management process, and provide a home or outreach visiting service for children and family members.
