Toni's Family Day Care - Wheeler Heights

Hi my name is Toni .

I run my Family Day Care from my home in Wheeler Heights where I live with my husband Paul and our three beautiful grown up children - Michael 23, Matthew 20 and Emily 19. My husband and I grew up on the Northern Beaches and love that our children have been able to have the same opportunity to grow, develop and explore in this beautiful area.

I am Diploma trained in Children’s Services and have had many years experience working in different types of child care settings. I am currently a teacher at Beacon Hill Community Kindergarten where I have been working for 2 days per week for the last 15 years. While working here I have had a lot of training and teaching experience with children who have additional needs. During this time I have also been fortunate to be able to spend time working in a local Gym creche, nannying for my friends and acquaintances and for the last 15 months caring for Children at ‘risk’ which I have found to be an amazing and rewarding experience.

My aim with my Family Day Care is to provide a happy, nurturing , safe and secure environment where your child will thrive and feel a sense of belonging and inclusiveness. I believe that in an environment where each child has equal access to opportunities respectful relationships can be built and nurtured. I aim to work in partnership with each family and encourage you to share interests, knowledge and experiences to contribute to your child's learning development.

I see each child as an unique individual and I will encourage, support and extend on their thoughts, ideas, interests and strengths.

I also have a strong passion for environmental practices and empowering children to make choices for a sustainable future.

I look forward to welcoming you and your child into my Family Day Care.

My fees include morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, wipes and sunscreen.
