STAYING HEALTHY IN CHILDCARE

To ensure infectious diseases within our childcare setting are prevented, we follow information contained within the following booklet provided by the Australian Government National Health & Medical Research Council.
This booklet provides information about how infectious diseases are spread, main ways to prevent infection,
monitoring children's illness, procedures for personal hygiene, nappy changing procedures, food safety, safely dealing with spills, issues for employers, educators and other staff and fact sheets.
We strictly follow these guidelines to ensure Gidgillys is a safe and healthy place for your child.
QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PLAN
A Quality Improvement Plan or QIP is required under the National Regulations for Early Childhood Education and Care. The QIP helps us assess our own centre and performance to ensure we are delivering quality education and care, it also assists us with planning future improvements. Having a QIP also helps the regulatory authorities when assessing our service.
Gidgillys conducts a self assessment by preparing our Quality Improvement Plan. We critically reflect upon current practice at the service, deciding what is done well and also identifying opportunities for improvement. We welcome your input and suggestions.
Below is our QIP summary as per each National Quality Standard for Early Childhood Education and Care.
RECONCILIATION ACTION PLAN

A Reconciliation Action Plan is a formal statement of our commitment to reconciliation with Indigenous and Torres Strait Islander people within our centre, community and Australia.
Gidgillys is currently developing our RAP which will clearly set out our steps towards reconciliation initiatives. We are scoping and developing steps to ensure our successive RAP's are meaningful, mutually beneficial and sustainable.
We currently have a RAP Working Group to assist in development, if reconciliation is something you believe in and strive for, please contact us to discuss as we would be happy to welcome your feedback and if you wish to be part of the Working Group please let us know.
