Tillys Play and Development Centres have been providing high quality care and education for your most precious assets since 1994. Tillys Play and Development Centres are privately owned child care centres owned and operated by Ron and Donna MacIntyre and their family. Donna and Ron MacIntyre currently own and operate Long Day Care Centres at Abermain, Bolwarra, Cardiff, Chisholm, Cooranbong, East Maitland, Gillieston Heights, Greta, Fern Bay, Rutherford and two at Waratah. Two more centres are currently in production at Kurri Kurri and The Junction. Donna and Ron have also previously owned centres at Largs, Dungog, Mannering Park, Tamworth, Singleton and Muswellbrook. All our centres are Long Day Care Centres, open between 49 and 51 weeks of the year (except Public Holidays) with operating hours varying from 6.00am to 6.30pm. Tillys caters for children between the ages of 0-12 years and are approved for between 28 and 174 children a day. Our centres at Greta, Bolwarra, Chisholm, Cooranbong, Gillieston Heights and Rutherford have separate OOSH facilities for between 30 and 60 children for before and after school care, and vacation care during the school holidays. At Tillys Play and Development Centres our programs focus on the holistic development of each child as an individual. We believe that each area of development affects another and as such no one area is more or less important than another. These areas include your child’s emotional development, social skills and confidence, their talking and listening skills, their fine and gross motor skills and their concentration, problem solving and thinking skills. These are the skills essential for a positive childhood and transition to school. Our programs are grounded by the Early Years Learning Framework for Australia and My Time, Our Place Framework for School Aged Care and begin with the relationships we forge with our children and their families. These positive relationships create a secure and happy environment for your children, which then lays the basis for a positive foundation of learning. We also believe that your child’s learning journey is a partnership between the educators in our centre, your child and your family. This means that with Tillys you can be involved in every step of your child’s journey to whatever level you feel comfortable with.
