SDN Paddington Long Day Care and Preschool

SDN Paddington is an 89-place centre providing early childhood education and child care for children from birth to school age.

The centre is part of SDN Children's Services, which is a not for profit organisation.

Our centre has five indoor play rooms, including two rooms for infants and toddlers, as well as two separate playgrounds – one designed especially for children under two. 

We see all children as capable and competent learners and our team of an educational leader and qualified staff are committed to supporting your child’s learning and development. 

Our educators work with smaller groups of children, fostering a safe environment where children share their knowledge with their peers. We also encourage siblings to interact throughout the day and we value the support they can offer each other. 

There are numerous art galleries in the Paddington community. We regularly take the children to visit these and draw on them as inspiration for creative arts in our preschool educational program.

At SDN, your child is supported by our village.

The SDN village is a caring, inclusive, and supportive community, where your child is the centre of everything we do. We give them the freedom to invent, create, explore, and express their true selves, every day. A place where they can use their voices. And when they do, we listen.

We see the whole child and know that children thrive when we support them to grow caring hearts, healthy bodies, and curious minds.

SDN is committed to being a child safe organisation.
