About Us
Nurturing Your Child's Growth and Development
Our Philosophy
Merrydale Childcare Centre is dedicated to providing a nurturing and stimulating environment for children to learn and grow. We believe in the Reggio Emilia approach, where children are encouraged to explore, create, and express themselves through various forms of art and communication. Our child-led learning approach fosters cognitive and emotional development, laying a strong foundation for future learning and success.
​
Our approach values the unique qualities of each child and encourages independence, creativity, and collaboration through explorative learning and nature influence. As per the ELECT model and How Does Learning Happen; healthy relationships between the children, their families and the educators, are of great importance and thus our educators’ maintain consistent communication while promoting the four foundations of learning: expression, belonging, engagement and well-being.
At Merrydale Childcare, we believe that “every wildflower deserves to bloom”, and are dedicated to providing the highest quality care and education to ensure that each child reaches their highest potential.
We look forward to welcoming you to our Merrydale Family!
