Programs

Programs

At Early Minds, we offer a range of thoughtfully designed programs tailored to support the developmental needs of young children. Our approach emphasizes exploration, creativity, and holistic growth, ensuring that each child thrives in a nurturing environment.

Our primary program focuses on play as a vital component of learning. Through interactive activities, children engage in imaginative play, problem-solving, and social interaction, helping them develop essential cognitive and emotional skills.

We believe in the importance of connecting children with nature. Our Nature Explorers program encourages outdoor exploration and environmental awareness, allowing children to discover the world around them through hands-on experiences.

This program fosters self-expression through various artistic mediums, including music, dance, painting, and crafts. Children will explore their creativity while developing fine motor skills and confidence in their abilities.

Our curriculum incorporates early literacy and numeracy skills through fun, engaging activities. We provide a rich language environment and introduce foundational math concepts, setting the stage for future academic success.

We prioritize the development of social skills and emotional intelligence. Through group activities and guided discussions, children learn to communicate effectively, understand emotions, and build healthy relationships.

Celebrating diversity is essential at Early Minds. Our programs include activities that promote understanding and appreciation of different cultures, fostering inclusivity and respect among children.

We couldn’t be happier with our daughters' childcare. The staff are incredibly friendly, approachable and genuinely nurturing — they make both the children and parents feel welcome from day one. Since starting here, we’ve seen such a positive change in her confidence. She’s more comfortable expressing herself, eager to participate, and clearly feels safe and supported in her environment. It’s obvious how much care and attention the educators give to each child as an individual. Knowing our daughter is happy, cared for and thriving gives us complete peace of mind. We’re so grateful to the wonderful team and highly recommend this centre to any family looking for a warm, supportive childcare environment.

Words are not enough to describe how incredibly grateful our family are that Early Minds Lidcombe exists. Miss Daniela, from the very start has been so helpful, warm and kind with communication and in person. ALL of the educators exude such warmth, joy and love, my son is so happy and that is honestly all you could ever hope for. There is such attention to detail in the way they care for these children. With our son being our 3rd and last baby, we’ve been around the block with daycares with a lot of dealings and we understand how important reviews are when families are searching for the right place - so I hope this brings other families comfort. Could not recommend this early learning centre enough!

Early Minds childcare in Lidcombe is an incredible place for young kids. Every time I pick up my niece, she doesn’t want to leave! The staff are so friendly and warm, they dedicate so much time to connect with families and genuinely never seem bothered to stay back to entertain the kids. The centre is always clean and everything seems in order. It’s very clear the kids feel safe and inspired. Well done Early minds keep doing what you do for these kids!
