    Early learning programs from six weeks to six years

    Mini Masterminds Leichhardt supports children across all stages of early childhood. Our programs follow the Early Years Learning Framework and are carefully shaped to suit each age group.

    What does my child experience in daycare?

    Our childcare Leichhardt programs are delivered across three learning stages.

    Nursery Program

    Six weeks to two years

    Our nursery program focuses on gentle care, familiar routines and strong educator relationships. Babies are supported by consistent educators who understand the importance of trust and comfort.

    Dedicated indoor and outdoor nursery spaces support sensory exploration, early communication and physical development in a nurturing setting.

    Toddler Program

    Two to three years

    Toddlers take part in play based learning that supports independence, language growth and social development. Daily experiences include music, storytelling, creative play and early problem solving guided by children’s interests.

    Clear routines help toddlers feel confident as they explore and learn.

    Prep School Program

    Three to five years

    Our Prep School program supports children as they prepare for kindergarten. Learning focuses on early literacy, numeracy, technology and inquiry based exploration.

    The program was developed with guidance from a primary school teacher to support a smooth and confident transition to school.
