Welcome
We welcome you and your child to Seaford House Sanctuary of Early Learning. We trust that our centre will be an extension of your home and we embrace you as part of our service family. By working together we will provide an environment that promotes quality care and education.
We provide a safe and nurturing environment for the care of children aged 6 weeks to 5 years of age. As a service we are committed to continuous quality care and improvement to ensure full and balanced development for each child.
Seaford House Philosophy
Our resolve is to nurture curiosity and wonder in young inquiring minds with intentional teaching, play and the fostering of a strong sense of wellbeing and belonging. We aim to create safe, loving, and homelike spaces for children enabling their exploration of identity. We have a solid team of skilled Early Years educators who are responsive to the rights and needs of children. They build trusting relationships with each child to ensure their sense of security, confidence, and inclusion. They assist children in becoming involved learners and effective communicators.
Our approach is holistic. We esteem the expertise, culture, values and beliefs of families, and encourage family participation in programs. We invite family involvement in decision-making about their child’s learning and wellbeing and other service decisions. Local community collaboration is also very important to us. We build positive relationships with the local community through programs that enhance the daily experience of our children. These support our children in their journey toward becoming socially aware, informed, connected and contributing to their world.
We are guided by the Early Years Framework for Australia of Belonging, Being, and Becoming and the Australian Children’s Education & Care Quality Authority’s National Quality Standard. We believe in reflective practice and evidence-based teaching and care.
