Our Service - St Augustine's Long Day Care
 Located in a peaceful setting, and featuring an expansive outdoor play area, St Augustine's provides children with a unique learning environment that encourages creativity and exploration. We believe each child is unique and learns differently, so our educators spend time getting to know each child and family so we can create programs that reflect the way they will socialise, learn and grow.

Overview:
An Educator in a long day care centre plays a crucial role in the early development and education of young children.
