Philosophy

Koolanga is an inclusive, boutique service that engages families, children, and educators regardless of culture. Building and maintaining respectful relationships while providing an alternative childcare option is paramount to us.

Our approach is guided by the EYLF principles of Belonging, Being, and Becoming. We recognise the importance of secure relationships, the present moment in children’s lives, and their ongoing growth as active societal participation.

We recognise that play-based learning engages each child’s interests and natural sense of discovery through hands-on exploration of the world around them. They are the drivers of their learning journey.

Koolanga acknowledges our diverse community and embraces the richness that diversity brings to our learning environment, fostering a sense of belonging for all.

Cultural diversity will be celebrated and the benefits of it for each individual child and enable them to understand and acknowledge differences.

At Ms. Brett’s house we gather on the land of the Noongar people. I like to knowledge aboriginal and Torres straight Islander peoples as the traditional considerations of this land and their connection to the land, water and the community in which we operate. I Pay respect to their culture, customs, both past and present.

I believe the environment plays a major role in the success of an early childhood program. It should enhance the children’s interests in all developmental domains. I believe learning in an early childhood environment is done most successfully through the outdoors within nature, exploring, in a safe, clean home like space, time and space to create and revisited again and again. The environment should take into consideration the social skills, communication skills, physical abilities or challenges, and learning styles of the children being served.

I have high expectations for every child, I’m always there to guide them to next level but always amazed at what children CAN do. The early years of a child’s life are busy. Learning is happening all the time and is interwoven through all developmental domains simply with nature and creative space. These include: physical, social/emotional, cognitive and communication. Therefore, the goal of my program is to make this ongoing learning experience safe, positive, and fun, nurturing the whole child as I strive to guide them into the next stage of development with confidence in themselves and an excitement for continued learning.

Families are a vital aspect of my program. Parents who are able to spend time with us occasionally are more aware of the details of their child’s day. Observing what goes on first-hand helps a parent know what to ask the child at the end of the day. My home is always (within reason) open for a cuppa and chat. In family day care, I care about each family member as much as the child in care. We are a team and I always care about each of you.

Children need the assurance of being loved and cared for while they are enjoying an “educational” environment. Teaching children is my passion. Security and trust are very important components as well, of my relationship with each child.

In planning my program I would strive for a developmentally appropriate, child-centred atmosphere where children have the opportunity to master new challenges through activities and topics that are meaningful to them, thus building their self-esteem as they develop and learn. Children should be given choices, responsibilities, and opportunities to initiate their own learning. I believe observations and assessments are excellent tools to use when planning a curriculum. Observations, not only aid in creating the curriculum but also give insight into the development, knowledge and skill levels of each individual child.

Last, but maybe most important, I give children the ability to just BE. BE children, BE happy, BE still, BE emotional, BE messy, BE dangerous, BE silly, BE loud, BE quiet, Be whatever they need.

Testimonials

Our daughter has been cared by Sabah Tadros for the last 14 months since she was 14 months old. Sabah has well exceeded our expectations in every facet of childcare. We are grateful to Sabah for the time she has spent educating, nurturing and guidance shown to our child. We have seen Sabah's wonderful influence in our daughter's language and artistic skills, and also her development of social behaviour and self confidence. Sabah instills beautiful values and moral which complements our parenting methods. Sabah keeps an impeccably clean home and cooks delicious and nutritious meals for the children in their care. We highly recommend Sabah's services to those who require childcare.

Sabah has been very welcoming as I am a new mum and I have found a lot of challenging things at times. I have never been more pleased as I love having such a close relationship with Sabah, and my son just adores her. She has an excellent manner with my son and great knowledge in regards to what he needs.

Sabah makes fresh, natural and homemade food for my son. Sabah has a very clean and child-friendly environment where my son feels at home.

I highly recommend Sabah as a family day carer.

From the moment we met with Sabah, Kaia was attached to her for the entire visit. Kaia has flourished at the centre. I cannot believe how well she listen when Sabah talks. Sabah instills values and manners in the kindest, gentlest way which Kaia responds to.

I have never once had to worry about dropping Kaia off in the mornings. It is a pleasure and Sabah makes the experience so casual and comforting. Not once has Kaia cried when we leave.

Sabah is a treasure to our family and we are so lucky to have found her to take care of our precious little girl.
Kaia's mom

Our daughter has been going to Sabah for nearly a year now and we are so grateful for the amazing care she receives from Sabah!

Sabah cares very deeply about all the children in her care and treats them like family. She holds exceptionally high standards with hygiene and makes the most amazing food so you know your little one is getting great nourishment.

She plans fun activities for the kids and makes special effort for occasions and birthdays which is so lovely!

Sabah has helped our family out a lot, we are very grateful to have our little one in her care - would definitely recommend

Helen Whattler-Furbank

Sabah is an absolute star, she loves and cares kids like her own kids. She is multi talented carer and stunning teacher. Sabah believe in best, she creates positive environment for kids so they can get the best. I'm lucky to found you as my daughter's carer and now I have you as my friend and adviser and guide and parenting supporter and so much more. Thank you Sabah.

Akta Doshi

I would highly recommend Sabah's family daycare. My daughter learnt a lot from her. My daughter is only 2 year old and she already knows her numbers, colors, shapes and she knows her alphabets too. Unfortunately due to change of work I had to change her daycare, otherwise I would never have moved her to another daycare. She treats all the children in her care as her own. In one word Sabah is amazing.

Humaira Rahman-Barua

Great family daycare, great values and everything is about what is best for your child. My bub is so happy there. I highly recommend it.
