Early Childhood Education
Our early childhood education programs follow the Australian Early Years Learning Framework, focusing on individual development through play-based learning. Qualified educators create tailored experiences that nurture cognitive, social, and emotional growth while preparing children for school transitions. The curriculum incorporates literacy, numeracy, and scientific exploration through engaging activities.
Play-Based Learning
Play-based learning forms the core of our educational approach, allowing children to develop creativity and problem-solving skills through hands-on experiences. Educators facilitate structured and spontaneous play activities that promote physical development, social interaction, and emotional regulation while aligning with national early learning standards.
School Readiness Program
Our school readiness program equips children aged 3-6 with essential academic and social skills for formal education. The curriculum focuses on literacy, numeracy, communication, and conflict resolution through structured activities and technology integration, ensuring smooth transitions to primary school environments.
Gardening Programs
Gardening programs teach children about nature, sustainability, and healthy eating through hands-on experiences. Children participate in planting, nurturing, and harvesting produce while developing motor skills, environmental awareness, and appreciation for fresh food sources.
Yoga for Children
Child-specific yoga sessions enhance physical development, concentration, and emotional regulation. Certified instructors use age-appropriate techniques to improve flexibility, coordination, and body awareness while promoting relaxation and stress management in a fun, engaging format.

Where should I start from, right from the cleanliness, discipline, food, curriculum, routine, SUPERB EDUCATORS and FOUNDER! ALL ARE EXCELLENT! My 8 month old baby started there in 2020, during very difficult Covid time, but the teachers are so careful and disciplined that I have never had any complaints. They keep you updated about everything, plus you get daily updates on your email. I could have given more than 5 stars as the teachers have given so much love and care, and my daughter now 22months old says more than 15 nursery rhymes with actions, elbow coughs and sneezes, eats by herself, starting

Being the first day care of my child, this centre will always hold a special place in our hearts. We are very happy with the progress he has made in terms of his development and motor skills. The patience, dedication and care shown by his educators definitely helped him mould into the child he is today. Special thanks to Miss Dimpy, Miss Dian and to all the educators who were instrumental in taking care of him. I would definitely recommend the day care to anyone who is looking at enrolling their child into day care. Thank you!

My son enjoyed going to paramatta daycare, I saw a lot of changes and development in him since his first month there and could not be any happier. He was able to overcome his social anxiety with help from the educators. Special thanks to Miss Joshmi, Miss Joan, Miss Neeti, Miss Tess. They all bonded so well with our son and made him comfortable and happy. All the educators are caring and enthusiastic, and always keep us informed of our childs activities. I would highly recommend paramatta daycare to anyone who is looking to enrol their child!!

My Wife and I would sincerely like to thank Miss Zarine and the whole team of Parramatta Preschool and Long Day Care. We started taking our Son here in February 2021. In the time that he has been in your care we can see and feel so many improvements in him. We really appreciate that you listen to our concerns and pay attention to the things we wanted to work on with his development. We could not be happier in so many ways from the cleanliness of the center to the attention and care of all the educators and staff. Keep up the great work.

We love this Preschool! My daughter is always telling us how ALL the teachers are kind, and we have personally felt the staff have consistently demonstrated genuine care for the students. The staff have been very respectful of our religious beliefs and Miss Tess has always made the time to make herself available to discuss any questions we have had. While academics are important I particularly appreciate the way this school places an emphasis on teaching social skills and good hygiene. We could not be more pleased with this school!
