Dandenong Child Care Centre - Jelly Bean Philosophy At Jelly Bean Child Care Centre we believe that every family member, child, visitor and employee is an individual, bringing a variety of skills, knowledge and understanding related to that person’s unique experience of life. We will value that uniqueness and nurture future growth through accepting the individual, recognising interest areas, developing respectful interactions, supporting ongoing learning, offering inclusive programmes and promoting teamwork. Our centre reflects the needs of our local community and the families who rely on the service provided. We will have autonomy, within professional guidelines, to devise and offer individuality within their programmes, to meet the local community needs.This becomes a shared commitment between our families, community, children and employees. By working together with open communication, respect and understanding, and by sharing ideas and striving for continuing improvement and excellent standards, all will reap the benefits.
