Explorers Early Learning Ashwood

"I'm updating my initial review to include the kinder program which my son is now enrolled in. Raji is our beautiful teacher who is attentive, caring and very well organised and really promotes independence. My son loves her and likes to role play as 'teacher Raji' at home! The kinder program is interesting for the children and my son takes his new learnings home which always surprises me! I appreciate how thoughtful and thorough Raji is with her day to day summaries on the children which I think is important to keep parents in the loop! Thank you Raji and team!!! It was amazing to see how quickly my son settled into Explorers Ashwood! Kim and Sophie and their team of educators are so welcoming and friendly!!! I love seeing photos of the happy faces of the children and I love the activities the kids get to do! The facility itself is immaculate and always clean and well presented. Definitely made the best decision for our son when we decided to move centres; he absolutely loves it! Thank you!!"

"The kinder program here is absolutely wonderful. I’m truly amazed at how much my daughter learns each day. Raji the main kinder teacher provides the kids with both a structured learning program and also play based learning. The kids are also taught how to treat each other with respect and courtesy. I really do feel that our daughter is prepared for her next step into primary school. Our daughter absolutely enjoys each day and I can’t thank the management team and educators enough."

"I can’t speak highly enough of Explorers Ashwood and sing their praises to all of our family & friends. Our son settled into the centre within a few weeks thanks solely to the passionate educators & centre managers who go above and beyond in every way. The centre is aesthetically stunning, welcoming, educational & homely. Their ethos & curriculum, inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, suits our son perfectly. The practicality of their curriculum is incredible. Our son has learnt an abundance of skills and transferred them into the home setting; eg, tidying up after himself, cleaning up before meals, and using utensils confidently and competently at such a young age. His language development has blown up and the indoor/outdoor program has developed his gross & fine motor skills beyond belief. He has also largely built upon his social and emotional intelligence. I knew it was a great centre to send him to but couldn’t have imagined how much he has learnt in less than a year so far! The daily updates on the app are amazing and receiving these is my favourite part of the day. Nothing beats seeing and reading about how much fun and learning your child is doing while you’re at work. Being able to share these with family is also a bonus; everyone feels a part of the explorer's family. Finally the food. Oh my gosh! I would pay good money to pick up a lunch pack every day from the amazing chef Nan! Our son is definitely eating better than we are when he’s at Explorers. All of the educators, centre managers Kim & Sophie, and wonderful chef Nan are incredible people who we are so grateful to have by our side as we raise our son. I can’t thank them enough!"

"When we moved, we were worried if our little one will settle into her new daycare with Explorers but all of our fears were unfounded! She always looks forward to her day at school and has heaps of things to tell us when she’s back. Kim and Sophie and their amazing team are just wonderful. The center is brand new and hence each learning space is thoughtfully designed. Indoor spaces are sparkling clean and outdoor spaces are delightfully fun and safe. From the planned activities, to the menus to the daily updates - it’s clear the educators put so much effort into looking after the children in their care. Thank you to the team at Ashwood!"
