Don't Just Invest For The Future. Create It.
Children of today will be the leaders of tomorrow. Join us in nurturing them to their fullest potential.
Our Approach
At CDF, we celebrate every child being an individual. We help all children reach their full potential by providing enriching and meaningful opportunities for development through our best practice approaches. Our educators develop ’emergent educational programs’ to deliver the national curriculum for early childhood education programs, called the Early Years Learning Framework. Emergent education focuses on the individual child, through the development of programs that are based on the children’s individual interests, challenges and understandings.
Our Values:
- A curriculum that emerges from the needs and interests of children and educators.
- Parents as partners in documenting children's learning.
- Diversity in cultural background, learning styles, and expressed opinions.
- Sense of community in the classroom, the staff room, and the neighborhood.
- Continuity and stability in relationships between children and their educators.
- Openness and directness in interpersonal relations at every level of the organization.
- Respect for the environment inside and outside the classroom.
Our Vision
Children with diverse needs can reach their full potential, become ready to learn and participate in family and community life through responsive and high-quality services and support.
Our Mission
From early in their lives, children with diverse needs, along with their families and communities, receive the support they require.
