A day at Sylvies
Cooking, planting, painting — and a nap when they need one
Real days from the last few weeks, not stock photography.

Cooking in the kitchen corner
Scooping, pouring and tasting. Fine motor skills that look like fun and produce morning tea.

Planting flowers for the bees
Excursions into the neighbourhood, hats on, in small supervised groups.

The same educators, every day
The same team works in your child’s room each day, so they know your child and you know who to ask.
Straight answers
The things parents ask us on the phone
Choosing childcare for the first time is hard. Here is what we do about the four worries we hear most.

A proper handover at pickup
Your child’s educators tell you how they ate, slept and played, and what they got up to that day.
The same educators in their room, every day
You will meet them on your tour. The team is led by centre manager Chantal Harvey.
Locked entry and signed collection
Only people on your authorised list can collect your child, and every child is signed in and out each day.
Fees published, meals and nappies included
From $150.50 for a 10 hour session, including all meals, nappies and excursions. We are CCS approved and will help you work out what you would actually pay.
