Alice Springs Family Day Care Inc Information

We support and encourage interest and involvement of families, educators and staff. Consultation and information sharing is of vital importance and we encourage all stakeholders to contribute to, and feel part of the scheme. We believe that each family, educator and staff member comes to the scheme with a wealth of knowledge and life experience and these experiences and differences are valued, embraced and built upon. We strive to work together to develop and build on this knowledge and experience through opportunities for training, professional development, and ongoing support. We believe each child should have opportunities and guidance to develop self-discipline, self-expression and confidence in their own abilities. Children should be encouraged to make choices, take responsibility, and build independence within a loving and accepting care environment. Enriching environments incorporate opportunities for problem solving, creative expression, tolerance, laughter, joy, and fun. These quality environments are language, literacy and numeracy rich, providing healthy, safe and developmentally appropriate childcare settings. We aim to embrace the global community and to provide a service that reflects diversity and tolerance.
