Treetops @ Kirrawee

Treetops @ Kirrawee is a long day care service that is open 7am-6pm, Monday-Friday. Treetops is a small family owned childcare service that offers care to a maximum of 30 children per day. Treetops includes many things in its service including – all meals, nappies, bedding. Treetops offers a smartphone app that updates clients with photos of the day plus daily activity – including whether or not children ate at each meal time, if nappies were dry, wet or soiled, if children slept and between what times, if preschool aged children participated in school readiness. The smartphone app also documents child development, including observations, follow-ups and assessments. There is a video released each day that shows what children have been doing. Treetops maintains a higher than needed number of staff for safety reasons – only 4 staff are required and we currently run 7 staff members. Safety is the number one concern for us, and our child care environment has been designed to allow for child exploration without compromising on safety. Treetops is required to have only 2 educators who are diploma trained or higher – Treetops has 4, including a fully qualified Teacher. Treetops offers a number of extracurricular activities, such as Dance, Sports, Music – and also a free Language (French) class. Treetops is a sunsafe service, providing SPF50+ sunscreen protection in dispensers on walls throughout the service – plus shade cloth to protect from the sun in outdoor areas. Hygiene is maintained by a strict routine of cleaning. The service is cleaned by staff each day, using colour coded utensils for certain areas to avoid cross contamination – the service is also cleaned by a professional cleaning company twice a week. Treetops also has hand sanitizer in dispensers on the walls across the service. Treetops is always looking at ways to be more sustainable and environmentally aware.
