Our Commitment to Your

Child's Safety

At Where we Grow, your child's safety, wellbeing, and sense of security aren't just priorities – they're at the heart of everything we do. We understand the immense trust you place in us, and we've built a robust framework of policies, procedures, and safeguards below to ensure a safe and nurturing environment for every child in our care.

 

Our Dedication to Child Safety

We are deeply committed to our responsibilities and statutory duty of care, complying with both the Victorian Child Safe Standards and the Reportable Conduct Scheme. This commitment underpins our capacity as an organisation to actively prevent and respond to any allegations of child abuse.

  • Rigorous Team Selection: Our recruitment includes reference checks and we conduct verified Working With Children Checks (WWCC) every 6 months (not just upon hire).
  • Ongoing Child Protection Training: Every member of our team receives comprehensive child protection training frequently, ensuring they are always equipped with the latest knowledge and best practices.
  • Constant, Careful Supervision: We maintain consistent supervision protocols to ensure children's safety and wellbeing are at the foundation of everything we do.
  • Empowering Every Child's Voice: We cultivate a genuine child-safe culture where children feel heard, respected, and fully supported in expressing themselves and their feelings.
    Continuous Oversight: Our commitment to safety is ongoing, reinforced by regular leadership reviews and thorough safety audits.

Our Commitment to Promoting Diversity and Safety

At Where we Grow, we're deeply committed to creating a truly safe, inclusive, and empowering environment for every single child in our care.
Here’s how we make that promise real:

  • Championing Cultural Safety and Diversity: We are dedicated to ensuring cultural safety for Aboriginal children and those from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds. We also provide a specifically safe and supportive environment for children with a disability.
  • Empowering Children: We empower them with the knowledge and confidence to speak up if they ever feel unsafe, and we consistently encourage them to express their thoughts and views on matters that affect them.
  • Highly Trained Team: All staff, educators, volunteers, and students undertake current child protection training annually (and whenever laws change), understanding their obligations as mandatory reporters and adhering to our strict Code of Conduct and Child Safety and Wellbeing Policy.
  • Anti-Bullying: We do not tolerate bullying or harassment, with clear policies and preventative strategies in place. Our priority is always to ensure children's wellbeing and to foster positive interactions.

My children have been attending this centre for one and a half years and they have always been very happy. The lovely educators are always so caring and supportive, always welcoming and helpful. When I leave my babies there I feel comfortable that they are being loved and all needs are being met. I highly recommend this centre.

My daughter loves coming here 5 days a week. She talks about her day and how caring her teachers are . She has been coming here since she was 5 months old and is almost 2. Thank you to her educators and Santina for always being helpful and for being a place where my daughter feels safe and happy every day.

Katherine Kladis

We honestly love it here. My son is 3yo and we have been here for almost 2 years. Have been in 3 different rooms and each and every one has been fabulous. The educators are so kind and caring. My son loves doing Yoga and sport incursions weekly and bush kinder excursions to the local park. All the staff are approachable and understanding. Thanks to each one of you who have enriched our sons learning experience.

Sarah Pinkster

My daughter attends twice a week and I’m so glad I enrolled here there! The staff are amazing and my little one has settled in really well- I have seen many other daycares but this one definitely was the best one I found which was local. Bonus points for the coffee cart and afternoon teas! Also extra points for the wellness bunny !
