New
owner,
familiar
faces
Burnside-based preschool and nursery,
The Enchanted Garden, was handed over
to new owner-operator Debbie Taylor in
October. She has been in early childhood
management for over seven years and has
three children of her own. Along with the
familiar faces of long-time staff, Debbie’s
vision is to continue the high quality care
and reputation that The Enchanted Garden
has maintained since 1995.
The centre offers children a home away
from home, with a philosophy based on
holistic, individualised care. They engage
higher teacher-to-child ratios to allow
better care and attention. The centre
is staffed with a team of professional
educators and nurturers who are highly
trained and passionate about creating
happy experiences.
The setting is warm and home-like in
nature while the playground and indoor
environment have been designed to allow
children to safely explore and learn with
confidence. This is supported by a strong
curriculum designed for active and exciting
play.
With 10 spaces in their nursery, and
23 spaces in their preschool, the centre
provides the complete early childhood
service. The fluidity of care allows children
to form close bonds while families enjoy
peace of mind.
