Rosebud Early Learning

Welcome to Rosebud Early Learning, a full-service childcare centre located in the beautiful area of Rosebud, Australia. Situated at Inglewood Crescent, our establishment is a point of interest for families seeking quality education and care for their children.

At Rosebud Early Learning, we cater to 92 children between the ages of six weeks to five years old. Our philosophy revolves around the understanding and management of the balance between education, care, and play. We strive to inspire children to embrace their learning journey and prepare them not only for school but also for life.

Simplicity is key when it comes to childcare, and that's exactly what we offer at Rosebud Early Learning. Through the eyes of our children, our dedicated educators create a warm, nurturing, and encouraging learning environment. This allows children to feel safe, inspired, and confident, fostering their cognitive and emotional growth.

Our focus on natural play sets us apart. Research has shown that children who regularly engage in play in natural settings are more resilient to stress, have better overall health, and develop a higher sense of self-worth. At Rosebud Early Learning, we provide opportunities for children to play in sandpits, dig in the garden, and splash around in a waterpark. In 2023, we are committed to reducing screen time and increasing playtime for our little ones.

We believe that diverse, natural, and challenging spaces are essential for children's development. Such environments help children recognize, assess, and negotiate risks, building their confidence and competence. Imaginative and creative play in these settings also enhances language and collaboration skills. Additionally, studies have shown that children who engage in nature play have more positive relationships with their peers, leading to a decrease in bullying behavior.

Our centre boasts a unique outdoor environment featuring four sand pits, two large bike tracks, a waterpark, a spacious grassy area, and a Garden World where children can learn about tending to herbs and vegetables. These settings encourage children to be free, make their own choices, and discover their "wildhood."

We understand that the early years are crucial for children's development, and our educators are committed to nurturing them during their time with us. We adhere to the certified National Quality Standard (NQS) for early childhood education and the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF). The EYLF supports play-based learning through the principles of Belonging, Being, and Becoming.

At Rosebud Early Learning, we firmly believe that all children are capable of extraordinary things. We encourage their happiness and greatness, understanding that it may mean different things to different children. Our educators equip them with the skills to build resilience, enabling them to bounce back from challenges and adversity. This prepares them to be brave, curious, adaptable, and ready to explore the exciting world that awaits them.

In our inclusive and unique learning experiences, shoes are optional, and getting dirty is compulsory. We strive to instill in children a lifelong love for learning, fostering their growth and development.

We also acknowledge and respect the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the traditional custodians of our land. We are committed to continuing our learning journey together and pay our respects to the elders past, present, and emerging, as well as the Bunurong people of the Southeast Kulin Nation, from the land to the waterways on which we gather, learn, and play.

Join us at Rosebud Early Learning and let your child embark on a journey of discovery, growth, and joy.
