About Us
The Big Treehouse now offers New Lambton and surrounding suburbs with a boutique childcare facility for preschool-age children age three to six. The Big Treehouse provides a high teacher to student ratio, custom facilities, and innovative learning programs for children to learn through play, assisting them in developing at their own pace but in guidance from the EYLF. The program will, in turn, allow them to become school ready and give them the best possible start to their formal education path, i.e. Primary school.
The Big Treehouse offers extended hours to accommodate working parents.
Confident learners
The Big Treehouse assists all children in becoming confident learners which in turn will promote school readiness. We will do this by broadening the children’s skills during the day, by teaching them, nurturing them and allowing them to learn through play and exploring their environment.
Safe environment
The Big Treehouse is a safe environment carefully planned and architecturally designed to maximise each child’s learning as the environment forms part of the third teacher. The Big Treehouse will allow for children to roam from inside play to outside play seamlessly, due to its design. The design allows each child to feel that making a decision concerning their environment and where they play matters, building on their confidence in decision making.
Well-educated and trained staff
The children will be engaged throughout the day, learning new skills and reinforcing already acquired ones with the assistance of well-educated and trained staff. The Big Treehouse will provide all children with three healthy meals per day with a focus on educating the children on healthy choices combined with physical activities. The Big Treehouse is situated in the centre of New Lambton, and its location allows the staff to take the children to the public park to enjoy physical activities carefully planned to assist and build the children’s fundamental movement skills.
