Meet the team
Meet the team
Throughout my years working in early learning I have developed strong beliefs in how the environment plays a major role in the success of a child’s individual learning. Once the child feels safe, secure, and nurtured, their learning will naturally develop through play, encouraging autonomy for them to explore, discover, create and imagine.
We welcome you and your family to book a tour and come and experience our wonderful centre for yourself!

We have had our children at edge early learning centre (Adelaide Rd) since mid 2020 and haven’t been able to fault it. Educators have all been fantastic and give you feedback at the end of each day. The ‘Storypark’ app is such an easy way to see what your child has been up to throughout the day. The outdoor space is spacious and updated with shaded areas everywhere and they even having misting tunnels for hot weather. My kids always come home and rarely eat dinner because they’ve eaten 3 serves of whatever amazing food chef Anna has cooked up for lunch. All in all would recommend this childcare to anyone who is looking. 😊 Read more
