A Loving Start for Your Little One
Healthy Beginnings (0–1 Years)
We know how big this moment is - leaving your baby in someone else’s care for the first time can be both emotional and overwhelming.
At Aussie Kindies, we’re here to make that transition feel as smooth, safe, and supported as possible. In our Healthy Beginnings program, babies aged 0–12 months are cared for in a calm, nurturing environment where they can feel loved, secure, and ready to explore the world around them.
This is the first step in our Lifelong Learning Curriculum, which supports your child’s growth from babyhood to school age through meaningful, play-based learning.
“The first year of life lays the foundation for every stage that follows. Babies thrive when they experience warm, responsive care - and it’s through these relationships that they begin to feel safe, explore their world, and learn to connect with others.”

Built on Love, Backed by Research
Your baby’s brain is developing at a rapid pace, forming over one million new connections every second. That’s why our Healthy Beginnings program is based on proven practices that support emotional security, early learning, and strong relationships.
We use:
- The Circle of Security – helping babies feel emotionally safe and supported
- Attachment Theory – recognising that strong bonds with carers lead to better outcomes later in life
- The Key Educator Approach – giving your baby a consistent, loving caregiver who really gets to know them
This approach helps your baby build trust, confidence, and a strong foundation for learning and development.
What Your Baby Will Experience
Every baby is different, but all babies learn best in a safe, responsive, and caring environment. In our Healthy Beginnings program, your baby will:
- Form a secure bond with their Key Educator
- Explore their world through gentle, sensory-rich play
- Begin learning to communicate through sounds, expressions and movement
- Develop early social and emotional skills
- Discover new things at their own pace, with support every step of the way
A Day That Feels Like Home
Your baby’s day is guided by their own routine, just like it is at home. We work with you to make sure every bottle, nap, and cuddle aligns with what your baby needs.
A typical day may include:
- A warm welcome and snuggles with their Key Educator
- Tummy time, soft play, and sensory exploration
- Sleep in a quiet, dimly lit room with regular 5-minute sleep checks
- Story time, music, and outdoor discovery in baby-safe areas
- Bottle feeds or breastmilk, nappy changes, and care routines, all logged and shared with you
- One-on-one connection, eye contact, and soothing interactions
We keep you updated throughout the day so you always know how your little one is going.
A Calm and Safe Space for Babies
Our baby rooms are designed to feel calm, clean, and comfortable, with your child’s safety and development in mind.
You’ll find:
- Soft, inviting areas for crawling, reaching, and exploring
- Individual cots in peaceful, supervised sleep spaces
- Safe outdoor areas where babies can feel the breeze, watch the sky, or enjoy tummy time in the shade
- Quiet corners like our Cosy Corner, plus interactive spaces like the Discovery Zone
All meals and bottles are prepared with care, hygiene, and your baby’s individual needs in mind. Many of our centres are accredited by the Australian Breastfeeding Association.
Educators Who Truly Care
At Aussie Kindies, we treat your family like our own. Our educators are warm, experienced, and genuinely passionate about caring for babies.
With our Key Educator Approach, your child will be supported by one consistent caregiver who learns their cues, celebrates their milestones, and offers them love and security every day.
We build strong relationships with families too, so you always feel informed, included, and confident in your baby’s care.
The First Step in the Lifelong Learning Curriculum
Healthy Beginnings is where your child’s learning journey begins. It’s the first stage of our Lifelong Learning Curriculum, a unique educational framework designed to support children from birth right through to school.
Each stage builds on the last, helping your child grow into a confident, capable learner.
