The Nurture Difference

Safe and uplifting environments
Our Murdoch centre is intentionally designed to be welcoming, calm and engaging, drawing on a Reggio Emilia inspired approach where the environment supports children’s learning and sense of belonging. We use natural and recycled materials, along with soft and cohesive colour palettes, to create spaces that feel calm, considered and inviting. These environments are designed to help children feel secure, supported and ready to learn.

      At Nurture, the arts are a fundamental part of our educational philosophy. Our dedicated Arts Program, included within our daily curriculum at no additional cost, provides children with meaningful opportunities to engage in visual arts, dance and creative expression.

          Strong relationships and connections
          We prioritise genuine relationships between educators, children and families, building trust and a strong sense of belonging within each centre. This is supported through open communication, involvement in each child’s learning journey, and meaningful connections with the broader community. Through regular community incursions, children engage with local organisations, aged care residents, artists, cultural groups, health professionals and community members, creating authentic opportunities to learn about the world around them, develop empathy, and foster a sense of connection.

                  We know that choosing the right environment for your child is a big decision. Here are the answers to the questions most often asked by our families.

                  • What qualifications do educators hold at Nurture Early Learning?

                    All Nurture Early Learning Educators have formal qualifications in the field of early education, with at least 50% of educators hold a diploma or are bachelor degree. In addition, our educators are mentored and guided by an Educational Leader to implement our education programs. All educators participate in ongoing professional development aligned with the National Quality Framework.

                    Nurture Early Learning provides long day care services for 6 week old babies to school aged children, except for our specialist Montessori centre in Victoria Park that provides dedicated montessori learning from 14 months to school age.

                  • When are you open?

                    All Nurture Centres are open from Monday to Friday. Our centres are open during school holidays, but are closed on Public Holidays.

                  • Does Nurture Early Learning have an education program?

                    Our program is guided by the Early Years Learning Framework, Australia’s national curriculum for early childhood education.

                    The EYLF supports the holistic development of every child — socially, emotionally, physically, cognitively and creatively — through play-based and inquiry-driven learning.

                    Our practice is grounded in strong relationships, high expectations, inclusion, respect for diversity and sustainability. We focus on the following key aspects:

                    STEAM Inquiry

                    Children explore Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics through hands-on, play-based experiences.

                    School Readiness

                    School readiness is embedded across our entire program, beginning in infancy and developing progressively each year. Children build confidence, independence and essential skills to ensure a smooth and positive transition to school.

                    Creative Arts & Dance

                    Guided by the Reggio concept of the “hundred languages,” children express themselves through art, movement, music and dance.
