Dulwich Hill ELC & Preschool 207 Denison Road, Dulwich Hill, New South Wales 2203

Welcome to Dulwich Hill Early Learning Centre and Preschool, located in the heart of Dulwich Hill, Australia. We are a renowned establishment that provides exceptional education and care to children aged from six months to school age.

At Dulwich Hill ELC & Preschool, we believe in creating a nurturing and safe environment for all children. Our dedicated educators work in partnership with families to support each child's transition from their home environment to our centre. By incorporating Attachment Theory and Circle of Security into our everyday practice, we ensure that every child feels safe, nurtured, and valued.

Our purpose-built learning environments have been meticulously designed to foster a natural progression through the early childhood period. With four developmentally based learning environments, we support children's emerging independence, the mastery of new skills, and their ability to take safe risks as they navigate the world. Our outdoor learning environments immerse children in nature, allowing them to learn how to care for and respect their environment.

Our educational program is child-centered, stimulating, and maximizes opportunities for each child's development and learning. We view children as capable and competent learners, and our educators use their knowledge of each child to guide their interactions, experiences, routines, and events. This ensures that our program is relevant to each child, respectful of their background, and builds on their current strengths, abilities, and interests.

In addition to our educational program, we offer a comprehensive Wellbeing Program that incorporates yoga, mindfulness, and guided meditation to enhance children's physical and emotional regulation. We also have a specialized Arts and Music Program that exposes children to different mediums and deliberate use of the voice and instruments through specialist teachers.

Our outdoor play space is a nature-based garden filled with natural challenges, providing children with unique opportunities for exploration and growth. We believe in providing children with the skills and abilities that will set them up for success in education and life.

At Dulwich Hill ELC & Preschool, we understand the importance of the early years in a child's life. We strive to foster their curiosity, interest in the world around them, and promote acceptance of cultural diversity. Our goal is to provide a happy and secure environment where children feel loved, respected, and can develop to their fullest potential.

Don't just take our word for it, hear from one of our satisfied parents: "My daughter went here for 5 years. This place is amazing. They really do care about the kids and you can see it. I could drop my daughter off every morning knowing that she is in good hands and well taken care of. Not to mention how much she has learned and how it has helped her when starting school. The educators are all so great, approachable, down to earth, honest, very knowledgeable, and caring. They have really nice large rooms and outdoor areas with some great activities that my daughter loved. What I really like is that they really do focus on what the kids are interested in. They make learning fun! Parking is easy. Secure building. I am so glad I took her here. Wouldn't go anywhere else. Would highly recommend this centre."

We look forward to welcoming you and your child to the Dulwich Hill Early Learning Centre and Preschool community.
