FAQ's

Here you’ll find answers to the most common questions about our childcare education approach
Does The Centre Follow A Curriculum?

At Buttercups, our approach follows the Australian Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), focusing on learning through play. This supports your child’s development from birth to age five, preparing them for school.

Do You Provide A Kindergarten Or 3-Year-Old Program?

Yes, we offer a tailored learning program for pre-kindy and kindy-aged children, focusing on school readiness. Led by an Early Childhood Teacher, the program supports academic, social, and emotional development in a nurturing environment.

How Will I Know What My Child Did At The Centre?

At Buttercups, we keep you connected to your child’s day through the Xplor and OWNA apps. Receive updates, photos, videos, and details on activities, meals, and milestones.

How Does Handover Communication Work?

Information is relayed between educators and carers throughout the day and will be readily available to you at time of pick up to ensure you have the complete picture of your child’s day.

Can I Provide My Child With Their Own Food?

Unfortunately, we do not allow families to provide their children with their own food. Due to the allergies within our Centres, we have a food coordinator that will prepare all meals for the children. Our menu caters for dietary requirements, food allergies, and food requests.

Do You Follow Sun Safety Guidelines?

We follow the National SunSmart Program to ensure safety. We check the UV index, schedule outdoor activities when safe, and provide shaded play areas. Both children and educators wear hats and sun-safe clothing.
