Facilities and Aims
Special Needs Care Facility
We offer a comprehensive day care program where our children, each with an individual education/care plan, learn to reach their full potential within a fun and stimulating setting.
For us, it’s about more than just accommodation and personal care. Our service provides a safe and supportive environment where your child can develop their independence, build confidence and pursue their goals through an enriched curriculum.
Our facility is geared with solar equipment and we are fully operational and online during loadshedding.
Our Facility Offers
The care that you need
Little Gems offers a large soft play area with a ball pool, a multisensory room, and a cosy lounge with sofas, DSTV, kitchen, and dining area to support independent life skills. Outdoors, children enjoy wide open spaces, climbing frames, grassy play areas, a swimming pool, and a vegetable garden — all within a safe, supervised setting.
A Homely Atmosphere
We provide more than accommodation and personal care. Our goal is to create a safe, homely environment where children feel comfortable, confident, and happy. With 24-hour nursing staff working alongside our care team, every child’s health and well-being is closely supported.
Our Commitment
We aim to unlock each child’s potential, helping them grow in confidence, independence, and life skills. Through an enriched curriculum, children learn personal, social, and practical skills, develop communication abilities using Makaton and PECs, and build an awareness of themselves, their community, and the world around them.
Our Approach
At Little Gems, teachers, therapists, and care staff work together as an integrated team with the child at the centre. We collaborate closely with families, set shared goals, and take a creative, problem-solving approach to ensure the best outcomes for every child.
