Camberwell Child Care Centre & Kindergarten - Tiggers Philosophy It is the constant objective of the Tiggers team to provide a welcoming, safe and homely atmosphere, in which all children and their families feel confident and relaxed as well as where parents feel their aspirations are supported. By fostering children’s self esteem, respecting their individuality and cultural differences. Provide sufficient settling in /orientation time. Provide quiet areas for children to spend quiet time. Provide therapeutic activities. I.e. water plays, sand play, play dough. Foster positive relationships between, the child, carer and families.

We believe all members of the Tiggers Community are individuals, bringing with them a variety of skills, knowledge and understanding related to their unique experience in life. These characteristics are a large influence when programming is implemented. We employ qualified and experienced childcare staffs who are dedicated to providing high quality care and education to all children. We recruit staff based on their qualifications, skills, experience and attitude.

 

We provide an educationally based program to ensure each room provides meaningful, developmentally appropriate play experiences for children based on the skills and abilities of individuals and the group.

We value uniqueness and nurture future growth by embracing the individual, recognising areas of interest, respect interest, developing respectful interactions, providing positive guidance, supporting ongoing learning, offering inclusive programs and promoting Self Help skills and team work.

The activities and topics in the daily program will reflect the children’s emerging interests, and space to allow for spontaneity.

We aim to meet children’s physical and emotional needs through daily care routines and individual attention through one-to-one interactions with each child as well as small group times.

Our centre reflects the needs of the local community, and the families who rely on the services we provide. These needs are reviewed regularly based on the requirements of the community.

Our Bi-lingual staff reflect the needs of the multicultural community.

We treat each family as individuals and invite them to bring their culture, interests, and special skills to the centre to extend children’s programs and expand the children’s experiences.

Our values become a shared commitment between families, children and staff. By working together with open communications, respect and understanding, and by sharing ideas and striving for continuing improvement and excellent standards, all parties will gain the benefits.

We believe positive relationships between the children, the carer and the family are fundamental in the provision of a quality service. Parents and staff are encouraged to spend time developing and maintaining those relationships.
