Why The Akidamy

We understand that you are looking for more than just childcare...

Choosing the right environment for your child’s early years is a significant decision. At The Akidamy we are fundamentally different from traditional childcare centres. We are an early learning school, dedicated to providing an unparalleled educational foundation that fosters a genuine love for learning. Our services and offerings:

• Your child thrives in an architecturally designed environment which is both stimulating and meticulously safe and secure.

Our Unique Learning Philosophy: A Foundation for Flourishing Futures
Our distinctive educational philosophy guides children aged three months to five years, fostering genuine learning through exploration and discovery of Reggio Emilia, RIE, and Pikler philosophies. This, alongside the National Quality Framework, the Early Years Learning Framework, and the Western Australian Kindergarten Guidelines, shapes our curriculum, ensuring meaningful, child-centred learning in all studios.

As dedicated members of the Reggio Emilia Australia Information Exchange (REAIE), we’re committed to upholding and evolving the highest standards of this world-renowned approach, fostering a community of continuous learning and excellence.

How The Akidamy Respects These Approaches
The Akidamy intentionally blends the Pikler, RIE (Resources for Infant Educators), and Reggio Emilia approaches to provide a rich, holistic, and deeply respectful early learning environment across all our studios, from Nursery to Kindergarten 4. This integrated philosophy is meticulously aligned with Australia's National Quality Framework (NQF), the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), and the WA Kindergarten Guidelines.
