FEATURED SERVICES

Little Angels Family Day Care, Kogarah  I chose to work as a Family Day Care Educator because I find very rewarding watching the children learn, grow and develop into their own uniqueness. My Goal is to provide a safe, caring and stimulating home environment where they can learn through play and have the love and attention they deserve.

I follow the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), which is based on the concept of being, belonging and becoming. As an Educator I believe that all children are unique and amazing little angels! They deserve love, attention and stimulating environment to learn and develop. 

My Qualifications:

•    Certificate III in Children’s Services
•    Apply first Aid and CPR Certificate
•    Asthma and Anaphylaxis Management 

Operating Hours Monday to Friday from 7.30 AM to 5:30 PM (Emergency care is available on the weekends, public holidays and overnight care if required just for the children enrolled with my FDC).   Providing quality care for children from 12 months to 6 years of age.  I am conveniently located in Kogarah, 15 minutes walking from the train station.  My family day care is fully insured and registered with All Areas Family Day Care SchemeContact me for more information.


My Little Angels Learning Academy Hurstville  is a 35 place centre catering for children 0 – 6 years. We are open year round from 7.30 am to 6.00 pm. We run a year round School Readiness program following the Letterland Phonics System.

My Little Angels Preschool and Long Day Care Centre, Penshurst  is a 30 place centre catering for children 0 – 6 years. We are open year round from 7.30 am to 6.00 pm. We run a year round School Readiness program following the Letterland Phonics System. 

My Little Angel’s is a family based Centre and a growing network. We believe in supporting families and their children as we work together to ensure the best quality care is provided. We ensure the development of relationships between children and families and provide a home like, caring and nurturing environment for all our children.  We believe that it is paramount that everybody feels a sense of belonging at My Little Angels.

Our aim is to provide each child with an educational program that is set in a relaxed and comfortable environment.  

It is our belief that children do not only learn through intentional teaching but also through exploration and interaction within their learning environment (play).

Therefore, if a child is presented with an environment that is interesting, stimulating and secure they will develop to their full potential.

At Angels we firmly support and incorporate the Belonging, Being and Becoming framework.  Our Educational play-based programs assist each child to grow and develop at their own individual rate with understanding, guidance and support shown by all carer’s.

Children are encouraged to be involved by sharing their interests both whilst at the centre and interests brought from home. This is to enable children to develop their resilience through their independence, capabilities, strengths and understandings. 

The staff at ‘Angels’ work to deliver experiences that reflect individual needs, which are unique to each child, along with experiences that reflect group interests.  We know our children are capable members of a large group and work together to build and maintain friendships whilst learning from, and helping each other, through collaborative learning opportunities.

We have a diverse community of My Little Angels friends who regularly communicate and visit us offering guidance and support.  We acknowledge and show respect for diversity and the various cultures of all children, families, friends and staff that attend the centre.

We endeavour to embrace and include children with additional needs.  With the assistance of specialist services throughout the community, we aim to provide transitions and resources to assist the child and family in every way possible.

Our aim is to provide a warm, welcoming and safe environment to all who step through the door.    Contact us or drop in and see our beautiful centres today!

CENTRE NEWS

Banbury Cottage &  Rainbow Cottage News
It has come the time were we are sadly saying goodbye to some of our Preschoolers who are leaving us to join the big world of Kindergarten. We have shared so many wonderful memories with the children and their families and it is always a hard time for the Educators to say goodbye. We truly will miss them all.

It is also the time when lots of new children will be starting at our service, some already starting the enrolment process, visiting to become familiar with the service and some already starting. We welcome parents who have enrolled at our service to visit with their children 2 weeks prior to them commencing at the service. This allows the child to become familiar with the environment, the Educators, the other children, their rooms, and hopefully assist in the settling of their first few days with us.

If you are still looking for a position to start in February, please give us a call to see if we have positions for your child's age group.   We are so excited to have this exclusive opportunityavailable to children who attend:  BANBURY, RAINBOW, LITTLE DOLPHINS, AND BABYLANDCHILD CARE CENTRES
