Keeping your child safe is one of the most important considerations. Every parent goes above and beyond to keep their child as far as possible for situations where their child can be susceptible to harm. From putting plugs in electrical outlets to placing their helmet on before they ride their bicycle to ensuring their children are not using social media and technology excessively or inappropriately. However, sometimes what you do may not be enough.

Speech and language development plays a critical role in a child’s social development, overall behaviour, literacy skills and the construction of their self-esteem. Speech and language are fundamental elements of our daily lives and are the tools we use to communicate and share our thoughts, ideas and emotions.

Is it time to send your little one off to daycare? This is a very exciting and nerve-wracking time for both parents and children. What to bring to childcare will also be top of mind. Similar to school kids buying their school supplies for the upcoming year, pre-schoolers also need a list of things that will help them remain comfortable and delighted throughout the day.

Children are adventurers in their own right and use their own experiences to help them thrive. Providing them with the right experiences will positively contribute to their learning and developing. It is extremely important for preschoolers and children to incorporate active play within their daily routine as well as ensuring they are receiving an ample amount of sleep. Balancing these experiences can positively contribute to their learning, helping them grow into the best version of themselves.

With the growing obesity rates in Australia, learning about healthy lifestyles and incorporating healthy eating in childcare is extremely important for children’s wellbeing and overall health. It is vital to implement these healthy eating practises at home from a young age. Doing so will equip children when they become more independent and make their own eating decisions.

Children must be raised to be confident and have positive and realistic perceptions of their abilities. Embedding this trait is essential for their early, most crucial years and the rest of their lives.

The team at Young Academics is so excited to open their doors to our newest centre, for the community and families of Guildford.

It’s finally that time to make a decision – to send or not to send your child to childcare. This decision can be quite confusing and overwhelming as choosing a learning facility that is going to be most beneficial for your child is a big deal! Every child has different requirements, and it is essential to observe your child’s needs and select a learning centre that is going to help them learn, develop and grow to their full potential.

In June, we opened the doors to the latest addition to our Young Academics family for a community open day at The Ponds.

Child care facilities are almost partially responsible for teaching children the necessary skills in order for them to grow and develop into positive, social teenagers and thereafter adults.
