the Early years program at Little Sweethearts.
Early childhood development is critically important. At Little Sweethearts, our experienced teachers and staff help facilitate this period of learning, and that’s what separates us from traditional child care facilities.

Early Years program
Preschool is a big year. We have a curriculum that stimulates growth and development of infants and toddlers in their cognitive development, social emotional development, language, fine and gross motor skills development. The centre plays familiar and Educational nursery rhymes throughout the day. Focuses on teaching phonics, numeracy, shapes, objects, geometry, sorting and classification. During these formative years our aim is to help infants and toddlers achieve their full potential and reach all their individual milestones in a fun and relaxed manner.
We form an internationally recognised curriculum that focuses on math, literacy, communication and language, Personal Social and Emotional development , understanding the world, science, music, art and crafts, design and technology.
