What is Home Based Childcare?

Edubase supports child development in unique ways that wrap around your needs. Find out what home-based childcare is, how it works, and whether it’s right for you and your child.

Home Based childcare is early learning in a cosy, family home - not a big centre. With just four children at a time (including the Educator’s own), your child gets plenty of one-on-one attention and builds strong, trusting relationships in a calm, nurturing space.

We have been over the moon with the level of care that was provided. It was great having my daughter attend playgroups, libraries, music groups, parks etc. Her educator was always excited to see us in the mornings, would debrief about her day when I picked her up, and I felt very comfortable knowing my daughter was in safe hands. Thank you 😊

Edubase and our educator were amazing and we are so grateful that our son was able to be nurtured and developed during his time. We are not new to homebased care as an option but what made Edubase stand out is the smaller number of children in the inhome environment and all the events and opportunities where educators and children can meet and socialise. Our son definitely benefited from being able to socialise in bigger groups.

I’m a parent who struggled with anxiety around childcare after a negative experience at a daycare. The home-based care I received through Homegrown Kids was calm, nurturing, and had such positive energy. It genuinely helped ease my anxiety. Our carer was incredibly loving and truly cared about my child, which made all the difference. I highly recommend Homegrown Kids to any parent looking for safe, supportive care.

Our Educator, Sharlena, has been both of our children’s caregiver for the past four years and she has treated our children as if they were her own. Both of our kids are incredibly confident, well-rounded individuals who have loved having Sharlena in their lives, and she will be hugely missed by our whole family. We can’t recommend her enough.
