Our Beginnings and Philosophy
Lizzards Preschool & Long Daycare has been nurturing young minds in the Hawkesbury Heights, Winmalee, and Springwood area since 1994. Founded on the belief that early childhood is a crucial period for learning and development, we provide a stimulating, safe, and happy environment for children between 0 and 6 years old.
Our dedicated and experienced team, led by former practicing midwife and family health nurse Mellissa Amirilayeghi, ensures your children receive the highest quality care and education. We believe in fostering a sense of wonder, curiosity, and a love for learning through play-based activities.
Long Day Care
Our comprehensive long day care program is tailored to meet the individual needs of every child. We provide a nurturing environment where children can learn, play, and grow, while receiving nutritious meals prepared on-site.
Preschool Program
Designed to prepare young learners for kindergarten, our preschool program focuses on developing key skills in language, literacy, numeracy, and social-emotional learning through play-based activities.
Our Approach to Education
Inspired by the Early Years Learning Framework, our educators implement a play-based curriculum that emphasizes:
- Identity and self: Developing a strong sense of identity and self-confidence.
- Belonging and contribution: Encouraging children to connect with their surroundings and contribute to their communities.
- Wellbeing: Fostering emotional and physical wellbeing.
- Learning and development: Promoting curiosity and encouraging exploration and creativity.
- Communication: Nurturing effective communication skills.
Our Daily Routine
Our enriched daily routine combines play, educational activities, and quiet time to ensure a well-rounded experience for your child. We also ensure regular outdoor playtime and a nutritious diet.
