Care available Monday to Friday 7.00am to 6.00pm Hi I'm Lorraine and my service is to provide child care for parents/cares who would like to have a night out or a weekend away. Care also available Monday to Friday.

Objective: To provide quality care that's fun and interesting in a safe environment. For parents to feel secure in knowing that they have a professional child carer looking after their children.

About me: I have been in the child care industry for (6 years). I have lived in the Macleay Valley for 20 years. I have always been actively involved with the education and well being of children and their families.
My social and friendly nature means I have a knack of connecting with children and adults from diverse backgrounds and value the task of maintaining continuity of professional child care. I have sound communication and interpersonal skills.
I inform parents/carers of activities of the day by showing evidence by photos and/or work completed by the children.
I have worked with children that have Autism and ADHD, I work with the daily routines and guidelines set out by the parents/cares to maintain continuity for the children.

I encourage children to perform tasks by themselves to promote confidence and independence. I help children with daily routines such as dressing, toileting, eating, sleeping and to use good hygiene practises.
Provide guidance on children's behaviour and social development. Provide fun and interesting activities for all children in a safe environment. Prepare meals and snacks and fulfil nutritional needs of the children.

Deliberate with the children on what activities they would like to do.
