Possum Room Educators Message

Hello. We are the educators in the Possum Room and we aim to provide our babies with a nurturing and loving home like environment.

Our rooms philosophy is based around the attachment theory, which means your baby is our number 1 priority, building strong and meaningful relationships that last throughout their day care journey. We provide an environment that is playful, fun-loving and safe.

The possum educators believe that the basis of a content and happy baby is an environment and educators that stimulate, encourage and support children’s development.

Through the use of play-based activities individual babies needs are supported and extended on. In partnership with parents we will support you with your little cherub’s individual needs and routines.

We encourage you to come and visit us in our nursery and get to know us before babies first day. (we will be the ones laying on the floor covered in babies!!)

Parent Testimonial

"Our 5 children have all attended the service. It has been an association that has spanned 14 years. Our children have all made so many memories at the centre and have always felt safe and secure with their educators. The director and office staff have always been so accommodating and nothing is ever too much trouble. They greet us each morning and afternoon with a smile and often a quick (or long) chat."

"All of the staff are amazing and from the very beginning, our family was welcomed into the Uniting Church Child Care Centre Gympie family with open arms.... and they truly have been like a second family for us. It is a sad time for us as a family because our youngest will start prep in a few weeks so there will be no more smiles, greetings and stickers on the way through the office or cuddles as Mummy or Daddy head off to work."

"I have laughed, cried and shared stories with this extended family and I’m so grateful they have been part of mine and my children’s life."
