Our Story

At Alphabet Childcare Foundation, supporting children’s independence, creativity and individuality is at the heart of our philosophy. Committed to encouraging children to engage in interest-led learning, we embrace a play-based approach which empowers them to see the world through a bright lens of possibility. 

We are passionate about the role we play in the lives of the children in our care and combine our strong curriculum with a safe, stimulating environment to enjoy meaningful experiences every day. 

Our team of Educators are passionate about creating a space where inquisitive young minds can grow, helping them to develop a range of skills – from numeracy and literacy to creative thinking and problem-solving – to prepare them for the next stage in their educational journey.

EVERY DAY WE…

Support learning through play, creative opportunities and exceptional educational experiences. Build community connections and relationships that are both genuine and respectful. Celebrate moments, milestone and every little victory through a shared spirit of generosity.

REGGIO EMILIA CURRICULUM

At Alphabet Childcare Foundation, we are committed to forming genuine, nurturing relationships with your child, and focus on their unique interests and learning styles to support their development in a way that is meaningful and enjoyable for them. We are proud to accompany children on their adventures as they learn more about the world around them and their place within it, and strive to optimize their development during their time with us.

We understand that every child learns at their own pace and have carefully curated a curriculum which is flexible to accommodating your child’s changing needs. Inspired by the educational philosophies of Reggio Emilia, Alphabet Childcare Foundation approach focuses on empowering children to express themselves through the hundred languages that they possess. With communication, sustainability and wellbeing at the heart of all that we do, we encourage your child’s ability to wonder and inquire. Passionate about the important roles imagination and discovery play in early childhood learning, we believe that through an exploration of creative expression children can immerse all their senses in a voyage of joyous self-discovery.
