Everything you need to know about our nursery program.
Little Scholars is proud to offer infant childcare to the Brisbane, Gold Coast, Ipswich and Redland Bay regions. We offer a range of services for children from six weeks to two years old, with experienced and qualified educators providing quality education and care for your little ones.
We understand that leaving your baby with others can be difficult, which is why our campuses have been designed to be comfortable, in a nurturing learning environment where infants can thrive. We provide stimulating activities and experiences tailored to the individual needs and abilities of each child, so they can reach their full potential.
At Little Scholars, we believe that every child is unique, and we tailor our services to meet the individual needs and abilities of each child. Our educators plan experiences that focus on movement skills, language development, and strengthening of developmental milestones based on the interests of the babies and research.
We use play-based learning to foster your baby’s natural curiosity, allowing them to explore their environment and experiment with new concepts using all five senses. We provide them with a plethora of sensory activities, various materials and textures, and open-ended resources that offer a hands-on approach to their learning.
In the nursery, we focus on building strong connections between our educators, infants, and families, which eases the transition period of separation for the child from their parent.
Our dedicated educators form bonds with the babies, ensuring plenty of one-on-one time with each child, reading, playing, and cuddling to develop trust and connection. They also focus on building heartfelt, trusting relationships with your family.
By connecting closely with you, we learn about your baby’s unique routines, preferences, and needs. Together, we create a seamless bridge between home and our nurturing environment, making sure mealtimes, naps, and play are consistent and comforting. With open communication and gentle collaboration, we become an extension of your family, supporting your baby’s wellbeing and growth while giving you peace of mind.
At Little Scholars, we believe that playtime is essential for a child’s growth and development, and we have designed our campuses with that in mind. Our stunning campuses have expansive rooms and large outdoor playgrounds complete with water features, sandpits, climbing equipment, and more.
This ensures that your baby will have plenty of opportunity to explore, learn, and make new friends. Each campus has been custom-built to suit the needs of the local community and families, making your child feel right at home from day one.
We believe that a healthy and happy child is a thriving child. Our programs for babies include outdoor pram walks, weekly music and dance classes, fresh-cooked, nutritionist-approved meals with local ingredients made especially for babies by our in-house chef, and age-appropriate climbing and obstacle equipment. These programs encourage movement, helping develop and build muscle, balance, coordination, motor skills, problem-solving, and more.
Our babies don’t miss out on fun just because they’re little, programs for babies include:
When they’re old enough they can begin to take advantage of our extra-curricular programs, which include outdoor pram walks, music and dance classes, sports, and more. We will also teach them to be environmental warriors, as at Little Scholars, we take our environmental commitment very seriously, and we believe in instilling these values in the younger generation.
Your baby’s safety and happiness are our top priorities, and we are committed to providing the best possible infant childcare services across the South East Queensland. We’d love to welcome you and your little one into our warm and nurturing family.
We adore the endless stream of questions that little ones bring to us every day! From an early education standpoint, we want children to learn at every opportunity. Children are inquisitive beings, and they have lots to learn! At Little Scholars, we cherish this innate curiosity in children and strive to foster a lifelong passion for learning.
As parents and educators, we understand that some questions from our little ones can catch us off guard, leaving us searching for the right words to provide age-appropriate answers. We’re here to lend a helping hand, so let’s tackle a few of these tough questions together!
