We were on the waitlist for 3 years, but it was worth every moment—Little Scholars has exceeded all our hopes. Every day feels magical for our kids. The massive backyard with real nature play, wooden playgrounds and bush kindy adventures at David Fleay Reserve are incredible. The educators are so caring and inspiring, and the eco-friendly mindset shines through everything they do, from compost bins to gardening workshops. Even the meals are exceptional—fresh, wholesome vegan options, filtered water and seasonal fruits and veggies with plenty of variety (our little foodie loves it all!).

We’re also so grateful for the thoughtful extras like date nights, parties, picnics and all the special events that strengthen the bonds between families and educators.

Special mention to Hannah, who is always so patient and friendly. Misses Alice, Ana, Anna, Brielle, Deb, Erika, Felicity, Gaby, Helen, Heidi, Jazmin, Jess, Lili, Tae, Tanami, Pamela, Rylee, Samara, Sasha, Sofwah, Sophie, Soraya, Summer, Tahlia, Teesh, Tjana, Yvette, Zahra and Mr Morgan are some of our favourite educators—just to name a few, as everyone is wonderful! We feel so blessed to be part of this beautiful community. 💛

I looooove this daycare and definitely recommend any family considering an excellent place for their children to thrive!
My daughter came in at 6 months when I went to work full time and she actually gets excited to go in the morning (and sometimes cries when I go to pick her up because she doesn’t want to leave) 🤣😅
All the staff are super lovely and trusting!
They also set up so many awesome activities for the children to do, no wonder my lil one loves it !!
Thank you so much ❤️

2024 update: I now have three children attending here, and they all adore it!
But honestly, what's not to love? They offer Kindy cuts, dental visits, dance classes, bush kindy walks, and yes you heard it- even mum and dad date nights! 😱😍
The staff always go all out with their events and they even provide coffee satchels for the adults to grab on the go too. 🥹

The main yard is also truly unique—it's MASSIVE and great for our young lil explorers ☺️❤️

In one word, AMAZING! Our son Olly first went to another Kindi that looked amazing but the morning staff left kids to cry and little effort to comfort him in the morning drop offs, when picking him up he could not wait to leave so we knew it was time to look else where. We initially looked at Little Scholars but they did not have any spaces. So when a spot came up we could not wait to have a look but at the same time a bit apprehensive after the last kindi, our worries were quickly diminished after our visit (Sorry I have forgotten the name) but we were shown around by one of the lovely reception staff who was only more than happy to answer all of our questions and let our son explore at his own leisure, she was very friendly and chatty. We were also introduced to some other staff, and even at a bust play time they gave us the time to say hallo and a quick chat while not making us fill like we were a burden, surprisingly during some of our visits to other kindi's the staff could be quite "cold" and un-engaging. The outdoor space has so much to offer, giving our young ones many different activities throughout the day. The overall vibe was full of happiness and we could not wait for Olly to start. He still cry's in the morning but the difference is all the girls are happy to comfort him even at peak arrival time, coming from the UK has been a big move for our son which has made adapting to a new kindi challenging. He has a soft spot for his teacher Tanisha and she always seems to go the extra mile to settle him which we are very grateful. Come pick up time and he no longer want's to rush out, now he wants to stay to show us around and what his been up to during the day or keep playing! One of the days he attends they do yoga, something that we have tried with our son at an early age but struggled to keep him focused, now he loves to show of his poses and join us (for a little while at least) This was definitely a great move to Little Scholars and already we own them so much, we could not recommend enough!

This is honestly the best centre ever!!! My child loves it and all the staff know his name and its like a little family there. he has always cried when I leave and now he smiles and runs off to lay. The outdoor areas are absolutely amazing! All staff seem like they love their job, all the kids and are always there so the kids have a great routine.

Our baby boy has been with Little Scholars for almost 6 months and we can’t fault them! As our first daycare experience we have been so happy with our experience, their teachings, their care and education, the quality of the centre and all the play equipment, their communication and all the extra things they throw in there. It’s so comforting to know our bub is in such good hands everyday. We love it and our little man loves it too so I really can’t recommend them enough! Thank you to all the staff and educators on doing such an incredible job.

Absolutely amazing centre. It’s the model for what all childcare centres should be. The facility is beautiful and immaculate with lovely toys and furnishings. It seems like a very fun environment for the children. My son was actually happy to go there every day, which was such a blessing. The staff were very nice and professional. I was heartbroken that we had to leave but I was driving 2 hours every day just to take my son there.

Little Scholars Is Looking Beyond Tomorrow.
The 2036 Project

We acknowledge that what we do today, with how we educate and care for children, directly impacts the world of tomorrow. Amongst these curious little minds are future leaders, innovators, scholars, explorers, entrepreneurs and humanitarians – and we recognise the incredible honour we have of educating and caring for your child.

The first five years of life are crucial to the foundations of your childs’ entire life. At Little Scholars, we are committed to instilling the knowledge and skills that will allow them to succeed – no matter which pathway they decide to pursue.

This is why, across all of our campuses, we’re working with our families and educators to create a vision for what we desire the world to look like in 2036… when our Little Scholars aren’t so little anymore, but rather active members of the community.

We have a responsibility – now – to ensure we’re providing the best environment for the future generation to thrive.

The future looks bright – and it’s in our hands. It takes a village to raise a child, and we believe that our vision to create a better world can be realised.

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