Hi my name is Robyn and I am a mother of 5
year-old old twin boys, I have always wanted to work with
children but I never took the chance, work took off in a different
direction. Now years later, I finally have the chance to do what I
have always dreamed of. I was working in childcare and loving it,
now as my boys have reached school age, I need to fit my working
hours around them, which is where I welcome family day care. Not
only do I get to be there for my boys, I also have the chance to
open my home to be there for other children and their families.
My passion for all children comes straight from the heart. I believe
that all children deserve respect, honesty, a warm, safe, friendly
environment, a place in which they have a chance to express their
needs and wants. I have an ear for listening , eye’s for seeing what
each child ’s individual needs are, emotionally, socially,
physically and developmentally, open arms for lots of cuddles, a
place where we all respect each others similarities, differences and
cultural beliefs and most importantly a place the whole family feels
valued and welcome. I would love to offer this to all children in my
care while their families are hard at work or having a well deserved
rest.

A
child’s mind is bigger than we can imagine, it is ready for
learning, it is ready for fun, it is ready nurturing, it is ready
for love, and all they need is a guiding hand along the way. A day
in my care would involve a whole range of fun activities including:
· Water play,
· Sand,
jumping,
· Music,
dancing, singing,
· Story
telling,
· Climbing,
· Dramatic
play,
· Ball play,
arts and crafts,
· Play dough,
blocks, puzzles,
· Cooking,
· Nature walks
and so much more.
There will
also be adventures at the park which is located next to my home and
social gatherings at play group. No two days will be the same and
every day will be exciting! All activities, sleep/rest times,
morning/afternoon teas, lunch times and social outings are based on
age and individual needs. Though there are routines in place to help
guide the children through the day, my days are flexible ensuring
that all children’s needs are met.
If your
child has any special toys, books, pillows or blankets etc that
they would like to bring from home, please feel free to do so as
this will help your child settle in as will knowing their home life
routines.
My days
are full of adventure and imaginary play, I love getting down to a
child’s level and truly enjoying the day with them, while also
giving them self confidence along the way.
