For happy confident learners and winners of the More FM's Best of the Bays Child Care centre!
TopKids Welcome Bay is a purpose built centre situated on the main road of Welcome Bay road. It is set in a semi rural area.
Our childcare centre caters for 50 children with 35 over 2’s nd 25 under 2’s in 3 separate areas because we believe it supports children’s learning.
In our baby and toddler room, TopTots, we offer quality education and care within a nurturing environment. We cater for children ranging in ages from 3 months to 2 years of age, following each child’s individual routine.
Our teachers encourage every child to actively explore their environment by using all their senses though the provision of a wide range of quality learning experiences. We provide children with a literacy rich environment which gives children a stepping stone to further build on these skills as they transition through to Kindy Kids.
In Kindy Kids, our 2-3 year old preschool room, we provide an inclusive environment that nurtures and respects the holistic child. This environment is made up of large open spaces that provide each child with room to learn and develop to their full potential. We have an exciting programme based around the child’s individual interests. Our friendly, qualified teachers provide rich learning experiences to support your child’s development.
Our Busy Kids programme supports and encourages our 4 year old children’s independence and self management skills, which we believe is important for the transition to school.
We have a wide selection of bi-cultural book and puzzles that the children regularly engage with. We encourage the children’s literacy experiences thought our daily routines. They are exposed to and encouraged to learn letters of the alphabet, number and colours through our daily activities. The children are supported to recognise their own and other children’s names. Through story telling and writing the children learn how to form letters and hold a pencil correctly which will help in the transition to school.
