Casa Bambini Early Childcare Centre, PJ Midtown Seksyen 13 is a charming little nest for children aged 2 months to 4 years. Painted in calming pastel colours, the atmosphere within feels like an extension from home, a place where children can find comfort and love, as well as the opportunity to learn. This brand-new centre hopes to cater to young urban parents who seek nurturing care and quality education for their little ones at an affordable price. It also offers the convenience of drive-through drop offs and pick ups.
At Casa Bambini, teachers come with relevant experience and babies are specially taken care of by qualified nurses. They want nothing more than to have children feel excited and happy to come in every day as they know children learn best when they are having fun. Together, they share the excitement when children laugh, show progress and achieve their milestones. As no two children are the same, so this is why teachers tailor the learning activities to meet the unique needs of each child and motivate them to grow at their own pace.
From teachers to programmes, Casa Bambini’s approach inspires a love of learning. The curriculum is underpinned by the principles of the Reggio Emilia’s way of teaching whereby children learn through experiences, have the right to explore, and have the right to control the direction of their learning. When children’s brains are growing faster than they ever will during these first few years, every learning moment counts. And this means starting from 2 months after birth.
We teach children lessons, manners, and social skills all through creative and preplanned play. Casa Bambini Early Childcare Centre
The programmes at Casa Bambini focus on 8 key areas of development, namely Literacy, Numeracy, Language, Sensorial, Science, Art and Music, Social and Life Skills, and Problem-solving and Investigative Skills.
Casa Bambini understands families place a great amount of trust to leave their babies in the hands of others. They can rest assured that the qualified nurses will make sure the transition from home to centre goes smoothly and your baby will grow securely and feel loved.
The Baby and Infant Programme is individualised according to each baby’s unique patterns for play, feeding and sleeping. This is then used as a guide to introduce simple daily activities such as listening to songs and nursery rhymes, sensory activities, tummy time, flashcards, and storytime, to promote healthy brain development. Lots of personal attention will be given to ensure basic cognitive and social skills are met.
As the little ones start to wander around, there are lots more exploring and discovering new things every day. That’s why everything is child-sized – furniture, low-shelving, and toys and books are placed within easy reach to allow children to navigate the spaces in a safe and confident way.
A wide variety of activities are planned around children’s interests and limitless curiosity. They sort shapes, stack blocks, talk into toy phones, and gradually move on to activities that helps develop their social-emotional skills, communication with friends, motor skills, as well as more independent living skills like potty-training and handwashing.
When children reach this stage, teachers start to prepare them for kindergarten and the years ahead. For much of the day, children will play, read, ask questions, and gain new knowledge through varied educational experiences that expose them to early language, math, science and everyday life concepts. This is the start of a passion for lifelong learning for children, which will help them thrive in the future.
A well-rounded, day-long programme is designed to complement the core curriculum. Children make the most of the time at the centre with active learning opportunities and reaping the benefits of effective daily routines that include mealtimes, nap times, playtime, etc. This predictable environment gives young children a sense of security which can help reduce challenging behaviours.
Another integral part of the curriculum is the nutritious menu that contributes to a healthy upbringing. The menu is updated every 3 to 4 months so that children won’t eat the same foods all the time. An in-house cook prepares well-balanced meals using wholesome organic ingredients, with minimal salt and sugar. Even the fussiest little eaters will become happy eaters when foods served taste and look this good.
Being a centre that caters to infants and very young children, the importance of safety and hygiene is highly placed. CCTV surveillance systems are installed; children with any sickness symptoms are not allowed into the centre; reduced group learning sizes to mitigate virus transmission risk; daily cleaning and sanitising are done thoroughly; and a deep disinfection of the centre is carried out by a third-party service provider. These are some of the precautionary steps taken to ensure everyone remains safe and healthy at all times.
For families looking for a bright start for your precious little ones, this is the place. The nurturing attitude and commitment to ensuring that each child is cared for like their very own is second to none in the childcare industry. The team at Casa Bambini also makes sure to keep parents up to date regarding their children’s development either through face-to-face communication or a mobile app, and on parent-teacher days. Both the centre and parents value the relationships formed amongst the whole school community as this provides the best environment for children to achieve their optimum potential.
