Lansdowne Private Childcare Centre

Welcome to Lansdowne Private Childcare

Lansdowne Private Childcare and Pre-School Centre is privately owned and has been caring for children in Masterton since 1993. We are dedicated to providing high quality care & education in a safe and relaxed enviroment that we hope will be familiar and comfortable for your child.

Educational Programme

Lansdowne Private Childcare and Pre-School has an educational programme which is planned in advance with a combination of structured activities and free play, and is always flexible. It includes stories, music, puzzles, dough, blocks, painting, water, collage, dramatic play, fitness activities, sand play, cooking, self help skills and many other activities, which may include visits outside the centre as well as special interest visits.

The programme is based around the project approach and is designed so that children grow, develop and learn at their own pace.

We are committed to running our early Childcare Centre in a relaxed manner, promoting a nurturing environment which provides quality care and education where children feel safe, happy and secure, as they would do in their own homes. The children are exposed to a wide range of stimulating age appropriate activities and warm and caring staff.

We are a multi-cultural centre with a programme of activities to suit all ages and stages of a child's development, this includes allowing children to learn in their own time and at their own level to explore their imaginative and artistic capabilities and providing them with the love, nurture and trust they need in order to achieve this.

Our centre life is assessed and evaluated reflecting children's individual development as well as group learning. Our thinking and talking books, wall displays and photo's show children's participation in centre life. We offer 4 year old children in preparation for school a group time which encourages self help skills and an extension to the day to day literacy and numeracy activities the centre provides.
