A very warm welcome to Pumpkin Long Day Care
Welcome to Pumpkin Long Day Care, where every child's journey begins with love, laughter, and learning. We believe in creating a nurturing environment that fosters curiosity, creativity, and growth. At Pumpkin, we cater to children from infancy through preschool age. Our comprehensive programs include full-day care, permanent and casual days, and enrichment activities designed to stimulate young minds and bodies.
We embrace a play-based learning philosophy that encourages exploration, problem-solving, and social interaction. At Pumpkin, we are committed to providing a high-quality early childhood education experience that reflects the principles and standards set forth by the National Quality Standard (NQS) and the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF). Our service is founded on the belief that every child deserves the best possible start in life and that their early years are crucial for laying the foundation for lifelong learning and wellbeing.
Our preschool room offers a comprehensive school readiness program designed to nurture the cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development of young learners. We believe in providing a supportive environment where children can thrive and develop the foundational skills necessary for a successful transition to formal schooling.
At Pumpkin, we take pride in our low staff turnover, which contributes to creating calmer, more stable environments in our class rooms. This aspect of our service is fundamental to fostering a sense of security, consistency, and trust among children, families, and staff members alike.
The safety and well-being of our children are paramount. Our facility is equipped with CCTV, certified staff trained in CPR and first aid, and rigorous hygiene practices to ensure a clean and healthy environment for all. We believe in building strong partnerships with parents to create a supportive community for our children. Regular communication, involvement in special events and activities are encouraged to foster a sense of belonging and shared commitment.
Thank you for considering our service as a partner in your child's early education journey. We invite you to explore our website further, schedule a tour to see our service in person, or reach out to us with any questions you may have. We look forward to welcoming you and your family into our community!
