Clyde North
Greetings from Mayfield Clyde North! At our centre, we believe that children are incredibly capable, competent, and resilient individuals. We champion their right to feel empowered, to have their voices heard, and to actively participate in decisions that impact their lives.
Our pride and joy lie in creating a dynamic and holistic environment where children are encouraged to be the architects of their own learning journeys. We embrace various approaches, including peer scaffolding, teacher-initiated learning, and the importance of interdependence.
In our nurturing setting, children not only learn but also grow, fostering their independence and self-confidence. At Mayfield Clyde North, we're dedicated to empowering your child to reach their full potential while providing a safe, inclusive, and loving space where they can thrive.
Welcome to our Mayfield Clyde North family, where we're committed to celebrating each child's unique strengths and supporting them on their incredible journey of self-discovery and growth.

Sunset

Our Kindergarten Program empowers children to make decisions about their learning and matters that affect them. We believe that for children to learn best, they need to gain confidence and independence through discovery, experimentation and connection with others and the world around them. Our curriculum focuses on the importance of preparing children for their schooling years in an environment that aims to strengthen children's identity and sense of wellbeing.
Always time to play and learn.
Meet Sandra
Hi there, My name is Sandra and I am the Centre Manager at Clyde North. I have been working in early childhood and education settings for the past 30 years. I have an Advanced Diploma in community management and Diploma of community service (child care) and have worked in varying settings such as council, community based and corporations. I truly believe that it takes a village to raise a child and believe in the profound importance of family, educators and the community in young children's lives.
Frequently Asked Questions
We provide most of the essentials that may be needed throughout the day. We ask that you pack and label; spare clothes, water bottle, comfort items/dummies. And if your child requires a sleeping bag, milk bottles, formula, or breast milk.
We offer orientation sessions for families to come along before the first day to have a short play with us. These sessions are usually close to the first day and act as a good lead in. It gives you, your child, and the educators time to get to know each other and the opportunity to ask any questions or provide important information. These sessions are usually organized once enrolment is confirmed, they last for 2 hours and are free of charge. Talking about it at home is also a great way to get your child excited for all the amazing experiences they will get to be a part of.
Be positive! Make the drop off a happy experience and take a few minutes to help your child to settle in. The mornings can be busy, but taking some time to find an activity your child enjoys and saying goodbye can help for a smoother start to their day. There will always be a warm and caring educator on hand to help. You are always welcome to give the centre a call after you have left for an update.
The educator to child ratio varies depending on state and territory, we meet or exceed this ratio. 0 to 24 months the ratio is 1:4 in all states and territories. 24 to 36 months the ratio is 1:5 in QLD and SA, and 1:4 in VIC. Over 36 months the ratio is 1:11 in QLD, SA and VIC. You can find out more on the ACECQA website.
It is important to take the time to find a centre where you feel confident and comfortable and know your child will be safe, happy, and protected. Find a centre that provides a learning environment where careful guidance and role modelling by educators can help children become competent, independent and develop valuable life skills. It is also important to consider aspects that will impact your family such as location, cost, and inclusions.
All Mayfield Early Education centres aim to meet or exceed the National Quality Standards and Regulatory requirements of an early childhood service. We regularly update our policies and procedures to ensure that children, family, and educators are aware of their requirements and responsibilities to help keep children in our care happy, safe and protected. As a parent or guardian of a Mayfield Early Education centre, you can find out more by visiting www. mayfield.com.au/policies. This page requires a password which you can obtain from your Centre Manager upon your enrolment.
Reviews
My son has been attending this centre for 3 years. All the staff are caring, kind and compassionate. It is an inclusive centre and we are so grateful to be part of their community.
— Lauren
As a first time mum I was very nervous about sending my son to childcare but at mayfield they are so inviting and reassuring from the moment you step in the door! I could not be more comfortable and confident in leaving my boy there. My son has been attending Mayfield for a few years now and will be entering into the 4 year old kinder next year and we are so excited to watch his journey. The centre have been fantastic with his development needs and helping us with working through his emotions and behaviours in a positive and supportive way. The director and assistant director are always so friendly and helpful with anything we need and always respond to emails or phone calls in a timely and friendly manner. No matter what staff member I deal with they are always warm and welcoming and willing to help with any questions I have. I cannot recommend Mayfield enough they are outstanding 🙂🙂🙂🙂
