The Little Unicorn On Honeysuckle is a family-owned and locally operated long day care centre and preschool service in Newcastle, NSW. With a history dating back to 1993, the business has grown to operate from multiple locations, including the CBD site at Honeysuckle and the new centre in Charlestown. Unlike franchise-operated centres, The Little Unicorn prides itself on being deeply rooted in the communities it serves, providing a safe and secure environment for children aged from 6 weeks to 5 years.
The business focuses on child-centered learning, offering a supportive and engaging environment where children can learn and develop at their own pace. The team at The Little Unicorn is comprised of experienced, highly qualified, and passionate early childhood practitioners who are dedicated to providing best-practice engaged learning that sets children up for success in life. The staff, including the management team led by individuals like Amy and Jade, are committed to continual improvement and creating inclusive learning environments that foster quality relationships between educators and children.
With a strong emphasis on creating a supportive and nurturing atmosphere, The Little Unicorn ensures that all staff members meet relevant statutory requirements and hold approved qualifications in early education and care. The business acknowledges and respects the traditional custodians of the land and extends a warm welcome to all Aboriginal people. Through a focus on play-based learning inspired by Maria Montessori, The Little Unicorn aims to provide a holistic educational experience that encourages children to explore, create, and grow in a safe and inclusive setting.
