About Happy Cubs Day Care, Meadow Heights

 

Welcome to Happy Cubs Family Daycare

A home away from home. At at Happy Cubs each day is filled with a variety of activities to spark curiosity and creativity. Children enjoy cooking and baking, planting and tending the garden, painting, singing, dancing, and imaginative play. They build with blocks, play with dolls, cars, and animals, and participate in theme days and dress-ups that encourage creative thinking and role play. Sports and physical activity are a big part of our program, including soccer, basketball, running races, and fun Olympic-style challenges that keep everyone active and happy.

We love spending time outdoors, exploring nature, listening to the sounds of the environment, and enjoying the fresh air at local parks. Excursions are a regular part of our program. We visit the zoo, Scienceworks, the library, and even shopping centers and Bunnings to gather supplies for our projects and even have a frozen yoghurt or a nice lunch at a cafe. While excursions are more frequent during school holidays, we also take little trips during school hours whenever possible.

At Happy Cubs, we value diversity and celebrate the many cultures in our community. Children learn about different traditions through cultural dress-ups, cooking experiences, and special celebrations such as Eid, Diwali, and Christmas. We also take time to acknowledge and learn about the Aboriginal custodians of the land and their rich culture.

We love themed days that bring excitement and learning together. Children enjoy Pasta Making Day, Superhero Day, Book Week, Animal Safari Day, Science Exploration Day, Teddy Bear Picnic Day, and many more. These days are always full of fun, hands-on experiences, and opportunities for children to try new things. We participate in clean up Australia Day where we put on some gloves, get some tongs and a bag and clean up some rubbish at a park and we also love to go feed the ducks.

Arts and crafts, storytime, and sensory activities are part of our daily routine, helping children express themselves, develop skills, and grow in confidence. Every activity is designed to support learning, creativity, and a love of discovery.

At Happy Cubs, children are part of our extended family. We celebrate their achievements, encourage their ideas, and create a joyful, nurturing environment where they can grow, explore, and thrive.

I proudly offer Saturday and overnight care, as I know how important it is for families to have reliable, flexible childcare when options are limited. I feel honoured to support families during these times and to provide children with a calm, safe, and nurturing space where they feel secure and cared for, even outside regular hours.
