Transitions into early childhood education in a new country can be challenging for refugee and migrant children, their families, and teachers. This article presents pilot study findings that explored how two ECE centres, collaborating with a settlement centre, support positive transitions for families entering ECE settings. Research highlights responsive practices, or the "little things" that ECE teachers and Settlement Centre staff do daily to support families' transitions. Findings emphasise the importance of cultural sensitivity, strong centre–family relationships, and community collaboration in creating inclusive, supportive education environments.
