Great Beginnings Gymea

Welcome to Great Beginnings Gymea, located at Dwyer Street in Gymea, Australia. Our institution is a point of interest for families seeking a high-quality establishment for their children's early learning and care. Conveniently situated in the heart of Miranda, our boutique and homely setting is perfect for families living or commuting through Miranda, Kirrawee, Sylvania, Caringbah, and Kareela.

At Great Beginnings Gymea, we pride ourselves on providing exceptional child care services. We have received recognition for exceeding the National Quality Standard, which encompasses the seven key quality areas important for children's learning and development.

As soon as you step into our child care centre, you'll enter a world where children are encouraged to explore and learn. Our adventure-filled playgrounds feature large yards with sandpits, a vegetable garden, climbing fort, and play equipment that engage all the senses. Children have access to our lovely vegetable garden, where they learn about nurturing the environment and engage in conversations about healthy lifestyles. They also care for a worm farm, learning the benefits of composting food scraps and further understanding the importance of the environment. Outdoor play allows children to test their limits, develop strength, balance, and self-confidence.

Inside our centre, children have access to high-quality resources and learning experiences that foster exploration and creativity. They can wonder, create, and test out their ideas in purposeful play spaces. Our experienced educators plan play-based learning experiences based on children's interests and learning goals.

Lunch and snacks are provided by our in-house cook, ensuring nutritious meals catered to all dietary requirements, including halal options. Shared mealtimes between children and educators strengthen relationships, provide opportunities to share stories and experiences, and model healthy eating practices.

Each day at our child care centre is filled with engaging specialized programs, including a music and movement program to develop fundamental skills. We also offer a sport and fitness program for an additional cost. Our preschool program, led by qualified Early Childhood Teachers, supports school readiness in an engaging way.

Excursions to our local community, including nearby parks and shops, are a regular part of our program. We also welcome community members to the centre to enhance children's learning through wildlife experiences, science workshops, magic shows, and more. These neighborhood connections support a sense of community and belonging while developing social and observational skills.

As part of the Great Beginnings community, we are committed to providing information, support, and high-quality education and care during your child's formative years.
