The
Educare courses at Northlink
College is just the study direction for you.
Here you are trained as an Educarer who can
educate the young child with love - who guides the infant,
toddler and pre-scholer through all his phases to develop into a
well-balanced individual ready for the demands of society. As an
Educare student you will already have the wonderful priviledge
of being part of the formative years of the pre-school child.
Dedicated staff members teach you, in a practical way, how best
to care for the child in totality.
The
ideal Educarer is a person who, beside her love for children, has
an impeccable character, high moral values and a sense of responsibility
in order always to set a good example.
