We use digital enrolment forms to gather the information needed to prepare for your child’s first day, ensuring their care needs and preferences are met. Our easy to pay bond secures your spot.
Options for every family
If we don’t have a spot right now or you’re planning ahead, joining our waitlist ensures you stay informed and connected.
- Stay updated: We regularly review our waitlists and will be in touch as soon as a place becomes available.
- Plan ahead with confidence: If you need care later, we’ll check in closer to your preferred start date.
- Feel part of the community: Our newsletter keeps you updated with helpful tips and centre news.
Step 3: Getting ready for day one
Our Centre Manager will call you to arrange Orientation Visits which help your child settle in before your first day. These visits ensure your first day—and every day after—feels familiar and easy. We’ll walk you through everything you need to know, including:
- Settling in – Your child can explore their new environment, meet their Educators, and start building connections
- Personalised care – Share your child’s routines, preferences, and any medical needs so we can tailor their care from day one.
- Easy drop-offs and pick-ups – Where to park, how to enter the centre, and what to do at drop-off.
- Staying connected – How we share updates about your child’s day so you always feel involved.
Step 4: Your first day
The big day is here, and we’re so excited to welcome you!
- A warm welcome – We’ll help you get settled in, show you where your child’s locker is and you’ll receive your welcome pack
- Staying connected – We know you’ll be thinking about them, so we’ll give you a call to let you know how they’re going and share photos and updates through our family app, Storypark. You’ll see what they’re up to and who they’re playing with—helping you feel connected, even when you’re apart.
