Welcome to KiDZSPOT Dilga - Baby & Toddler Centre

Welcome to KiDZSPOT Dilga!

KiDZSPOT Dilga is a niche centre for babies and toddlers. It is easy for babies to get lost in the activity among older children so everything at Dilga, from the staff to furniture to toys & resources, is designed to work around the demands of our tiniest children so they receive the attention they need. It gives parents peace of mind knowing their babies are in a cosy, home-like environment.

When our Dilga children reach the age of 3, we transition them to KiDZSPOT Lima, where they start the School Readiness program. The two centres in Erskine Park work very closely together on programs and services to ensure a strong continuum of learning as children move from Dilga to Lima. Moving to Lima is almost like a practice run before the big move to school. The transition is easy and smooth; we take care of everything to ensure the children feel the excitement of ‘moving up’ to pre-school. We hold a parent information night and we organise an excursion to the Lima centre in time to give the children the opportunity to see their new KiDZSPOT.

About KiDZSPOT

We are experienced owner operators. We developed KIDZSPOT based on one key principle: to create childcare services we would want to use for our own children. As parents, first and foremost, we want our children to first be safe and healthy. We also we want them to be successful, responsible adults. What we do at KiDZSPOT reflects what we all want for our children.

JUSTINE THOMAS

Director, KiDZSPOT Dilga, KiDZSPOT Lima I Erskine Park

My name is Justine and I am the Director of KiDZSPOT Dilga and Lima in Erskine Park.

I began my journey in childcare in 2008, and went on to complete my Bachelor Degree in Early Childhood Education in 2015. During my career in childcare, I have worked across all age groups, spending most of my time with the preschoolers aged 3-5 years.

My main aim is to provide a caring and loving educational experience for all children making sure each child feels a sense of belonging when in our environment. Having a child start school is a huge milestone not only for the child but also their families - I believe it is our job, as Early Childhood Educators, to help shape and teach all children working in collaboration with families.

Our School Readiness Program is comprehensive and allows educators to teach children core foundational skills from literacy, numeracy and concepts to self-help skills. This gives children and families the information and knowledge making sure each child has the best support possible giving them the best head start in their schooling.

I am very passionate about my job as an Early Childhood Educator and love supporting, teaching and guiding each and every child along their journey in the first few years.

ISABELLE DESMOND

Centre Manager, KiDZSPOT Dilga, KiDZSPOT Lima I Erskine Park

Hello! I’m Isabelle Desmond, the Centre Manager at KiDZSPOT Dilga and Lima in Erskine Park.

I knew that Early Childhood Education was exactly what I wanted to do from a very young age. I’ve always had a strong connection with young children so I couldn’t imagine a better way to turn my passion into a career.

The first 5 years of a child’s life are crucial in building the foundation for their future. I love being able to watch children grow and develop knowing that my work will have an immense impact on the people they will grow into mentally, emotionally and physically. I couldn’t imagine a more fulfilling vocation.

As an experienced Educator, my focus has always been to support and enlighten young impressionable minds. I am a strong believer that each child learns at their own pace and that we must adapt our learning strategies to match each child’s individual needs.

At KiDZSPOT Dilga, our focus is to build on play-based learning programs that appeal to a child’s natural curiosity and their need to engage in experiences as they make sense of the world around them.

If you are looking for care for a baby or junior toddler in or around Erskine Park, please come and meet us.

What the parents say

Kidzspot Dilga is a great centre for 0-2 year olds. Having the centres split means there’s only 2 rooms which I love as the teachers are able to connect more with the children. All the educators are helpful, full of knowledge and love helping the kids learn and play. From day one I have felt comfortable leaving my child in the reliable and capable hands of the teachers. The centre is clean, bright and has a great indoor/outdoor area. Really happy with the centre overall.

Gemma Martin

Amazing staff with so much heart and a caring mindset. It’s wonderful seeing our daughter get excited about going to daycare here.
The teachers at kidzspot dilga really make an effort to engage with the kids and develop them in a very individualised way. The staff are extremely friendly and professional. It’s a relief to me as a mother to know that when I drop her off every morning-she will be well taken care of.

Amanda Plunkett

The Team at Kidzspot are the most wonderful, thoughtful & caring people i have come across. First time putting my son into a child care & we have never felt so welcome at a place before. They do absolutely anything to ensure your child is safe & having fun. Thank you Kidzspot!

Kimberely Charity

We are so impressed with all aspects of this daycare! They go above and beyond to make you feel like family from day one. They made our daughter’s transition into daycare a breeze. As soon as we pull up to “school” she has the biggest smile on her face. She has grown and learnt so much from her teachers and friends. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this centre to anyone :)

The most welcoming centre with amazing staff! My son hasn’t even started there yet but we have had tours and our orientation and I feel so comfortable leaving him in the hands of these amazing educators. I’ve had offers at many other centres and no one has topped Kidzspot. Can’t wait for my son to begin his care with Kidzspot

Learning & Play at Dilga

The program at Dilga is made up of only 2 Focus Groups: TOT Spotz and MiNi Spotz. Our TOT Spotz are our babies and the MiNi Spotz are our toddlers.

Generally, all centres follow a structured, daily routine to keep activities and tasks running to a schedule. At the Dilga centre, though, things run a little differently because the centre just revolves around the care of babies and junior toddlers so a typical day really depends on the needs of the children.

Each child has their own routine that is in sync with their routine at home. The focus of the centre is the connection to family and home life so the children experience as much consistency as possible between the centre and home.

When we say our babies and youngest toddlers receive the attention they need, we mean it.

When a Dilga child reaches the age of 3, they are moved to our pre-school centre, KiDZSPOT Lima. Lima is a niche pre-school service (with long day care hours) that has a dedicated school readiness program.

KiDZSPOT has a structured transition program to ensure our Dilga children are well prepared for the move to Lima. Our kids love it because it prepares them for the real big move, which will be from Lima to kindergarten.

Developed by degree qualified Early Childhood Teachers, each program is designed to reflect the cognitive, physical, social & emotional milestones of the age group’s developmental stage. The program is based on delivering a holistic experience through play….an experience that encompasses each child's strengths, weaknesses and interests.

Where a child is today is not necessarily where they should be; some children will be ahead while others may need time to catch up. Our approach is to bring out the best in each child as we develop and assess their progress against their age as well as their developmental stage, interests and their overall needs.
