Explore & Develop - Norton Street Lilyfield Centre overview
Explore & Develop Lilyfield is a privately owned, architecturally designed education and care facility, catering for children 0-6 years of age. Operating since 2011, we are an Exceeding the National Quality Standard service who believes every child is unique and that every child has the right to become a confident and involved learner.
We believe that the way we introduce children to early learning is of high importance, as it is the foundation on which children will build the rest of their lives. We value our highly trained Educators as agents for this learning, fostering an inquisitive and enthusiastic approach for all children, all ages and all stages of development, whilst identifying and respecting what makes your child unique.
Our natural environments encourage each child’s journey of self-discovery and change. Our educators continue to build on your child’s interest through flexible and open-ended learning environments. Each rooms program is designed to incorporate language, literacy, drama, music, arts, mathematics and science. Our programs are based on the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and the National Quality Framework and continue to evolve to reflect the children’s interests and stages of development.
Our transition to school program provides an environment that offers choice, challenge and routine so that children can grow, and develop self-confidence, social maturity and independent life skills for a world beyond Explore & Develop Lilyfield.
We value our staffs’ high professional qualifications and their role as passionate advocates for the early childhood profession. Our educators are active learners as well, through their ongoing commitment to professional development via workshops, mentoring and the upgrading of their formal qualifications

Centre Reviews

I am so grateful we selected (and got into!) such a great daycare, not just from an educator and quality of care perspective,... I am so grateful we selected (and got into!) such a great daycare, not just from an educator and quality of care perspective, but culturally and administratively too. It makes all the difference! My daughter started a couple of months ago and it was evident very early on that the educators truly care and are experienced and well versed in settling children - she was settled in and enjoying herself within just a few weeks. Not only that but being a smaller centre, everyone knows her name (even the kitchen staff!) and I've even seen the office and administrative staff step in to help a busy room/situation. Would highly recommend Explore and Develop Lilyfield. Read more

My 1 year old daughter attended here for a short time and we had to terminate her enrollment after an unacceptable experience we had. When we went to pick her up, we saw that she was swaddled like a newborn and crying, sweating. We were told she was moving a lot. Then we sent a termination email, included their owner in the email as well. We did not receive any explanation or clarification. This seems to be a standard practice here. Better to find a place where the educators can engage with the babies in nurturing practices that support her emotional and developmental needs rather than pacifying them until the pickup time.

I was nervous about sending her so young but the centre was incredible - staff so supportive and kind, built trust immediately with both my daughter and my partner and I. We saw so much development in such a short period of time - from her social skills, physical ability (standing and walking) and confidence and it was all encouraged by the centre. Their facilities are clean, spacious and a lovely outdoor area, programs are varied and interesting - even yoga and outdoor excursions for the bubs to the nearby park and rides on the tram, which our daughter loved! Would highly recommend this centre. Read more
