We know how important the first two years of life are. At Little Kingdom, we nurture and educate your little one via our loving educators, safe spaces and developmentally appropriate resources and programs. We believe a baby’s ability to engage and learn is intrinsically linked to their feeling of security. We emphasise the importance of building nurturing relationships and safe environments to support each child’s ability to develop in all areas. Our nursery program recognises individual differences and ensures that goals and milestones are tailored to the unique development of each child.
In our nursery, we support the development of each baby through a holistic approach that considers each child’s individual needs. We believe in building a foundation of strong social and emotional abilities, through responsive, nurturing and positive experiences.
Our wonderful educators support babies in all of aspects of their social and emotional development, starting with forming good relationships. We create supportive and loving relationships that provide babies a sense of security and confidence.
By providing babies with continued safety and security, we help them develop confidence and a sense of self. From reactions to responsiveness to attention spans, our program deliberately encourage children’s efforts to communicate their emotions, both verbally and non-verbally.
At Little Kingdom we create a space where babies grow their cognitive abilities. We focus on engaging babies in meaningful and interactive play to encourage their cognitive development. Through this play, we help your baby develop skills for thinking, understanding, remembering and imagining.
We know that language and speech develop quickly in the first two years of a child’s life and we support this development in a variety of ways. At Little Kingdom babies are supported and encouraged to express themselves and communicate with their educators and friends. Our program encourages effective communications through reading aloud, giving simple instructions, and developing specific play routines.
Our caring educators and engaging environments support your baby’s physical development. We give your baby a nurturing and safe space that allows them explore and their environment and challenge their physical abilities. Through our educators’ support, children learn to develop their sense of health and physical wellbeing as they refine their complex sensory-motor skills and movement patterns.
Our holistic approach includes a broad range of educational activities and meaningful experiences, for education that reaches beyond academic learning into all areas of social and emotional wellbeing. Here are just some of the practices we implement to support development.
We promote time spent playing with babies while they are on their tummies. This strengthens important muscles and promotes a range of development.
Music combines cognitive, physical social and emotional learning that supports a holistic approach to education. It allows babies to begin expressing themselves in a fun an interactive way.
Books and stories help spark curiosity in young children and we use them often to support your baby’s speech, language, and early literacy skills.
Nurturing relationships give babies a sense of security, encouragement, and confidence. They teach them to form meaningful friendships, regulate their emotions, and deal with challenges.
We offer a range of Infant and baby specific resources that spark curiosity and aid in the healthy development of babies.
Songs and rhymes are a fun and interactive way to encourage a range of skills and support babies as they get to know sounds and words.
Art is the perfect hands on way to explore a range of colours, textured and materials and promote creative expression.
Sensory play supports a range of development as babies engage their senses and begin to make sense of the world around them.
Connecting children from an early age to their natural world plays a vital role in encouraging a variety of development as they learn to respect and care for their environment.
