Lyrebird Early Learning Centre

We care for little ones as young as 6 weeks old, with our oldest babies typically around 15 months. However, this room is all about development over age, so we’re flexible and responsive to each child’s unique journey. It’s the most adaptable space in our centre. Here, we focus on sensory engagement and meeting each child’s individual needs. Whatever routine you follow at home—we’ll follow it here! We believe in the power of strong, collaborative family relationships, and we’ll work closely with you to ensure consistency in your baby’s care. Our goal is to make sure you leave each day feeling confident, supported, and completely assured that your baby is in the best possible hands.

This room is designed for children aged approximately 15 months to 3 years, though age isn’t the only factor we consider. If we feel your little adventurer is ready to take the next step and become a Discoverer, we’ll have a conversation with you about transitioning them into the next space when the time is right. In the Little Adventurer Room, we embrace exploration. Climbing, jumping, and discovering the world around them is encouraged and supported. This stage is all about developing confidence and curiosity in a safe and nurturing environment. We begin introducing gentle routines to help with smoother transitions into our older rooms. Throughout the day, we include group times and intentional teaching experiences to foster early learning and social development. This space is all about feeling safe, supported, and free to explore.

This room is part of our funded kindergarten program, designed to inspire a love of learning through play-based exploration and meaningful experiences. We focus on encouraging independence, building confidence, and nurturing each child’s unique sense of wonder. Our program is led by the children's interests, with a planning cycle that reflects their evolving ideas, questions, and passions. Educators work closely with families to ensure that each child feels heard, supported, and celebrated in their learning journey. The 3-Year-Old Kinder room follows a gentle routine, including multiple group times throughout the day that support social development, early literacy and numeracy, and school readiness—all while keeping joy and connection at the heart of everything we do.

This room is part of our funded kindergarten program, led by a passionate and experienced early childhood teacher who is both a mentor and a friend to every child in their care. The program is highly regarded within our community for its thoughtful approach and strong focus on connection and readiness. The curriculum is guided by the children’s interests, with a special emphasis on multicultural celebrations and the calendar of events throughout the year. These experiences are thoughtfully woven into daily learning to celebrate diversity and encourage curiosity about the world. A strong focus on school readiness ensures that each child is supported in developing the confidence, independence, and skills they need for a smooth and successful transition into their schooling journey. The 4-Year-Old Kinder room follows a structured routine, balanced with opportunities for exploration, creativity, and connection.
