Djarring Toddlers

The Djarring (White-Cockatoo) Toddler room houses our 18 to 34 month aged children. Offering a large range of activities tailored to each child's individual goals, interests, and developmental areas. The Toddler room curriculum is thoughtfully designed to nurture autonomy, agency, and independence through a variety of engaging and supportive practices. Children are encouraged to take an active role in their daily routines such as: washing their own dishes after meals, fostering responsibility and a strong sense of capability. Educators model their own 'self-soothing & emotional regulation toolbox' and create cozy, comfortable spaces to help toddlers to regulate their own emotions and build resilience. The environment is rich with vibrant educational resources both indoors, and outdoors, that stimulate curiosity, from a holistic, child-led approach. Singing songs, both familiar and new, is a daily part of the curriculum, promoting a language rich environment, teaching rhythm, and fostering a sense of belonging and community. Educators strive to always uphold a safe, empowering space where young children are supported in developing confidence, independence, and a love of life-long learning.
