More Than Just Care
Located in the heart of Manilla, our purpose-built centre provides high-quality early childhood education for children aged six weeks to six years.
We combine a warm, family atmosphere with the professionalism and standards you’d expect from an accredited long day care service.
A safe, inclusive, and caring environment
Our centre is designed to provide a secure, inclusive, and nurturing space where every child feels a sense of belonging and is encouraged to reach their full potential.
Strong partnerships with families and our local community
Partnerships with families and our wider community are at the heart of what we do – fostering trust, collaboration, and a shared commitment to every child’s growth.
Opportunities for creativity, curiosity, and discovery every day
Our programs are designed to spark curiosity and inspire creativity, giving children the freedom to experiment, imagine, and learn through hands-on experiences.
Learning and Care For Every Age
We believe children learn best through play, exploration, and meaningful connection. Our educators create rich, engaging experiences that nurture each child’s individuality, guided by the National Quality Framework and the Early Years Learning Framework – Belonging, Being and Becoming. Every day is designed to spark curiosity, encourage creativity, and build confidence through play-based learning.
Our programs balance play, structure, and discovery to help every child grow at their own pace. We offer two key learning environments tailored to each developmental stage.

0–3 Room
A nurturing, home-like environment where little ones can build trust, confidence, and curiosity through play and gentle routines.

Preschool Room
A play-based educational program that encourages creativity, problem-solving, and school readiness in line with the Early Years Learning Framework.

OOSH
Safe, flexible care for school-aged children before and after school, with activities that support learning, friendship, and fun.

We're excited to soon be offering a new service to parents who require outside of school hours care in Manilla.
