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.

From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by the warm and welcoming staff who made me feel right at home. The level of care and attention they show to each child is exceptional. The centre itself is beautifully presented—everything is immaculate, organized, and clean, which made me feel confident in the environment my child is in. It’s clear that a lot of thought has gone into creating a safe, nurturing space for the children to learn and grow. I am so grateful for the positive impact Early Minds has had on my child's development. I highly recommend this centre to anyone looking for a supportive and loving learning environment! Read more

We have given a 5 star review for the following: *Staff: All staff are welcoming, approachable and friendly to both children and families. They make the effort to get to know the children and parents well, and are highly responsive to support families/children when needed. *Program/curriculum: The activities are very well-thought out, with a focus on interest-based and play-based learning. This included cooking, growing vegetables in the garden and water play. This was the highlight for our daughter, who was engaged and excited for each day's activity. We enjoyed seeing the fun activities she was doing through the daily pictures posted on the parent app which helped us to have conversations with her about her day. *Physical centre and resources: The centre was always clean, with staff cleaning each late afternoon to prepare for the next day. There is a wide range of toys and activities available for the children, age appropriate to each room. The room sizes are large and spacious, with all the resources neatly and safely available for play. *Meals: Our daughter's dietary requirements were catered for and all meals/snacks were provided through-out the day. Overall, we would highly recommend Early Minds Lidcombe to any family. It is a wonderful centre that nurtures your child and an environment where your child is supported to thrive. We will miss the staff and it is unfortunate we had to move our daughter due to changes in work/home location. We wish Emily, Daniela and the wonderful team all the success they deserve, thank you for making our daughter's time at Early Minds 10/10! Read more

The team of dedicated educators truly care about each child's growth, development and most importantly their happiness. As a working mum its comforting to know that my little one is so loved and cared for and excited to attend everyday. As a big 'clean freak' (for lack of a better word) it is so important and reassuring to see the centre so clean, making it a safe environment for all children. The most heartfelt thank you to the Early Minds Team 💕 Read more
