Welcome to Wind In The Willows Child Care Centre

Wind in the Willows Learning Centre is a family-owned long-day preschool and nursery committed to providing the very best in care and early learning for children aged 6 months to 5 years. A team of dedicated educators deliver stimulating and challenging programs in a warm and homely environment, helping children to grow, learn and develop a true sense of belonging.

To support children, the centre has been designed as a comfortable and relaxing space for sensory learning. Interiors are light and airy, and children have access to a rich range of resources including books, toys and costumes, for imaginary play and discovery. The enriching program includes exciting activities such as art, music and science.

The outdoor space features a sandpit, play equipment and wide lawns for running and bike riding. Bordered by tall trees, the yard is a wonderful space where children can learn about the environment, create and play, which helps foster cognitive, social and gross motor skills, as well as a sense of health and wellbeing.

Convenient to bus stops, the centre also has dedicated parking on site. Why not book a tour of this caring and community-focused centre today?

Programs

The centre has developed a range of age-specific learning activities for babies and children, including an essential school readiness program. A range of play-based programs are tailored to children’s interests, encouraging curiosity, creativity and autonomy in a nurturing and relaxed atmosphere.

The centre views children as capable, resourceful and valued members of our community, and aims to develop a strong sense of well-being with both planned and spontaneous child-led activities. Children learn new skills, explore new interests and ideas, appreciate the difference and diversity of other people in our world, respect our natural environment, show respect for each other, and develop the ability to solve problems and think creatively.

Programs focus on holistic development, and feature a wide range of activities including maths, science, art, music and incursions and excursions.
