Our Mittagong West service has a large garden for our children to explore, play and run in.
With natural space that is shaded by large trees that give the kookaburras and cockatoos a place to safely watch our children garden in the veggie beds and care for our resident rabbit and chickens.
Our cook prides herself on cooking nutritious meals with a menu that is approved by Munch and Move; so we know it ticks all the boxes, but it’s always oh so tasty too!
Our babies through to our preschoolers are busy bees, always having educational and fun activities to learn through play. The design of the service allows all ages to share experiences together, making meaningful friendships as the children and grow in their space.



Here’s what parents and carers are sharing on Google Reviews
I was quite nervous leaving my daughter for the first time at 4 years old, but all the staff were very welcoming, warm and just really lovely. Highly recommended! Wouldn't go anywhere else!
The teachers are so lovely, and so passionate about the work they are doing with these little minds. We only have 1 year left now before big school and I am excited to see the new things Scarlett will pick up as a ‘Schoolie’ next year. My kid adores her teachers. Talks about how great they are all the time.
She will really miss coming here when she graduates. Another thing I really appreciate about these wonderful ladies is that they want to send my girl out into the world completely prepared for what comes next. They are dedicated to making sure these kids are equipped to handle the transition to ‘big school’ so they will not just ‘be fine’ at school but excel! Thanks again Explorers for looking after my Scarlett. Highly recommend.
Early childhood education builds a strong foundation for lifelong learning. Routines and structured programs like group time, Jolly Phonics, and social skills activities support children’s development in key areas. Regular routines help children feel secure and understand expectations, while group activities encourage teamwork and communication. Programs like Jolly Phonics foster early literacy skills, setting the stage for future academic success. Investing in these early years ensures children grow confident, socially adept, and ready to learn! #EarlyEducation #LearningThroughPlay #JollyPhonics #SocialSkills #ChildDevelopment

Early Childhood Education sets the foundation for lifelong learning and success. In these formative years, children develop critical thinking, language, and social skills that set the foundation for lifelong learning. By providing children with a fun and playful environment for children to learn and grow in we are developing the tools they need to unlock their full potential, while becoming strong, confident and caring citzens of the world.

Our 3–5 year olds participate in our Jolly Phonics Program. The Jolly Phonics program supports and engages children in learning letters and letter sounds, developing children’s early literacy skills. Jolly Phonics can be used in different ways such as songs, storybooks and using it on technology such as an iPad or tablet. During the year, children have developed their letter and sound recognition and have developed the skills to write these letters and their names. It has been amazing to watch! The children have shown such a big interest in Jolly Phonics, and it has helped them become confident and engaged learners for their future learning and development.
