The Little Miracles centre at 61 Aberglassyn Road, Rutherford opened in January this year and is the ninth  in operation since founders Rob and Susanna Bateman  launched the first, in Terrigal, in 2004.

“We have  mini farms at all our centres, and the open day is a chance for people to come along, have a look at the animals and our facilities and have a chat with the operators and staff,” operations manager Daniel Bateman said.

Family owned and operated, Little Miracles offers  high quality preschool and long daycare for children aged 0-6 from 6.30am to  6.30pm Monday to Friday.

Each centre is built upon a ‘Culture of Honour’ which  ensures everyone involved – children, families and educators – feel significant, appreciated and understood.

“We also have individualised routines for children 0-2 to help them feel secure and always on the same body clock as at home,” Daniel said.

“Our ‘Loving Literacy’ program guarentees children are reading at level 1 or above before commencing school.

“It is entirely game based and the children just love to partipcate. Recently we have developed an app to complement the program which we give all our families.”

As a new centre, Little Miracles at Rutherford does have vacancies currently across the week but these positions are filling fast.
