What does the enrolment process involve?
Little Gems Child Care Condell ParkEnrolling at Little Gems Chid Care is easy as one, two, and three. Educators are with you every step of the way, and will notify you of the next step to take. You will need to bring along your child’s birth certificate and immunisation book (to be photocopied). First, you will get a tour of the Centre so you can observe the environment, and the different learning opportunities.
Then you will be provided with an enrolment package which includes an enrolment form, an emergency contact form and a parent information sheet. The interviewer will go through the enrolment form with the parent, and discuss a quote for your daily fees. We encourage parents to ask as many questions as they like and we will provide the best possible answer that supports your decision in picking the best Centre for your child. You will be offered 2 pre-enrolment visits where families can bring the child for a 1 hour orientation commencing before the starting date.
STARTING AT THE CENTRE
You are invited to spend some time at the Centre to settle your child and to get to know the staff and other children. Families are entitled to 2 pre-enrolment visits to familiarize themselves and their child with the routines and daily timetable of the Centre. Parents are required to stay with their child during these visits.
