Testimonials –

Lucy P 5 stars (google) COOLSTORES
Having recently moved to the Peninsula from the city, we were nervous about changing childcare and visited a few different centres but as soon as we met the Little Grasshoppers team and saw the facilities we loved it! Wonderful team of educators and staff and such a great environment for the kids. Recommend highly!

Joelene P 5 stars (google) MORNINGTON – Main St
What an incredible Early Learning Centre! I cannot rate Little Grasshoppers Main Street highly enough. The enrolment process was friendly & easy, the centre manager is lovely & so quick to respond to queries, and the staff are fantastic. I’ve felt so reassured with their care & confidence in looking after my children and they provide a personal touch to each family that is hard to come by these days. There are daily updates on the activities of my children and beautiful books, artworks, and creations sent home regularly. Best of all, my children absolutely love being there. I am so happy with this centre and would recommend it to anyone.

Kate S 5 stars (kindicare) MORNINGTON – Parwan Cres
Amazing boutique centre! A great child friendly place with top quality staff. Can’t recommend them enough!

Lauren M 5 Stars (kindicare) MORNINGTON – Parwan Cres
Wonderful staff and place. The girls go above and beyond to provide excellent care for the children. Both of my children have been there since babies/toddlers and absolutely love going in to see what adventures they get up to that day 😊 Never had an issue in 5 years.

Steph L 5 stars (Google ) SOMERVILLE
Since attending LGH Eramosa, our son’s vocabulary, social skills and confidence have skyrocketed! His ability to play fairly with others has improved and his knowledge of his ABCs, numbers, shapes and colours leave us so amazed. We also love that his interests are celebrated (space, music and dancing) and he can’t wait to show us what he has learned once he gets home. Thanks to all the girls who look after our boy, you’re all legends!

No Food Shaming.

If you grew up in the ‘80s, ‘90s, or early 2000’s, chances are you were taught to see food through a moral lens: veggies were “good,” chocolate was “bad,” and fat was something to fear. That messaging stuck.

So now, when you reach for a bag of chips after a long day or say yes to dessert, a quiet voice in the back of your mind is likely to whisper: “You shouldn’t.” You feel like you’ve done something wrong – simply for eating something you enjoy. And here’s the thing: our kids are watching. They’re listening. The way we talk about food becomes the way they relate to it.

If you want to raise confident eaters, it’s time to let go of the “good” vs “bad” food narrative and allow your kids to enjoy food without guilt or shame. Let’s be real; some foods are more nutrient-dense than others. But that doesn’t mean that we need to rank them on a scale. Instead of calling food “good” or “bad”, try talking about how it fits into the bigger picture of what our bodies need. 

Read on for a few ways to reframe the conversation:
