About Us

Our Story

If you’re looking for childcare centres in Brisbane or the Gold Coast, look no further. At Little Scholars, our goal is to be an extension of your family. Our first priority is the growth and development of your child; we nurture, teach and guide your child to developing all the skills that will allow them to succeed in life.

It’s an approach that recognises how critical those first five years are for a child’s development, and ensures your child gets all the support they need to flourish during this time.

We embrace everything from the natural environment to digital technologies as important educational tools, instilling a contemporary, sustainable and values-driven learning foundation in every curious little mind for whom we have the honour of caring.

Experience the Little Scholars difference

At Little Scholars, we believe in the holistic development of children. While early childhood learning is the centre of what we do, it’s not all we do. We help develop the whole child, supporting and nurturing their spirit – emotional, social, physical – so that they grow up to be confident, compassionate, and well-rounded individuals. Our approach is about academic preparation, yes, but it's also all about fostering a lifelong love for learning and equipping our little ones with the skills and mindset to thrive in every aspect of their lives. This comprehensive focus on nurturing every facet of a child's development, is the reason why nine out of 10 parents choose to enrol their children at Little Scholars after visiting one of our 14 campuses. Our commitment to excellence in early education, combined with our passion for creating a warm, inclusive, and stimulating environment sets us apart. At Little Scholars, your child will not only learn but also experience joy, creativity, and the freedom to explore their potential in a safe and supportive setting.

At The Heart of Everything we do at Little Scholars are our Key Pillars
