How to Enrol
How To Enrol
At Wirrabirra Childcare Centre, we aim to make the enrolment process as seamless as possible for families. Follow these simple steps to enroll your child with us online:
Book a Tour
Book a Tour online, head to our official website and navigate to the Enrolment section. Here you’ll find all the relevant details about our centre, including our philosophy, the programs we offer, our team members and important policies.
Submit an Expression of Interest
If you’re new to Wirrabirra Childcare Centre, the first step is to submit an Expression of Interest form. This can be done by filling out an online form available in the Enrolment section of our website. Provide basic details such as:
- Parent/guardian information
- Child’s full name and date of birth
- Preferred days and times for care
- Any special needs or considerations
Waitlist Confirmation (if applicable)
Depending on the number of spaces available, your child may be placed on a waitlist. If this is the case, you will receive a confirmation email with details on your child’s position on the list. We highly recommend submitting your expression of interest early, especially if you require care on specific days or times.
Offer of Placement
Once a spot becomes available, we will contact you via phone or email to offer a placement for your child. At this stage, you will receive a detailed information pack that includes:
- Our centre’s policies
- Fee structure
- Important dates and orientation information
Complete the Enrolment Form
Once you’ve accepted the placement offer, you’ll be directed to complete our full enrolment form. This form will ask for more detailed information, including:
- Your child’s medical history, allergies, and dietary requirements
- Immunisation status (you will need to provide your child’s current immunization records as part of our compliance with government regulations)
- Emergency contact information
- Any custodial arrangements or court orders (if applicable)
Review Policies and Sign Agreements
Before finalising the enrolment, you’ll need to review and acknowledge our centre’s policies. These include:
- Health and safety policies
- Behaviour and discipline guidelines
- Fees and payment procedures
- Consent forms for excursions, photography, and other activities
All documents need be reviewed and signed to make the process quick and hassle-free.
Attend an Orientation Session
Once your enrolment is confirmed, we’ll schedule an orientation session for you and your child. This session is an opportunity for your child to get acquainted with our educators and the learning environment. It also gives you the chance to ask any final questions about the care we provide.
Start Date and Regular Updates
After orientation, we will confirm your child’s official start date. Throughout their time at Wirrabirra Childcare Centre, you’ll receive regular updates via messages, where you can track their daily activities, meals, and progress.
