Our Story
Mission
Our Mission is to empower young minds through exceptional care and education in a safe, stimulating, and nurturing environment where every child explores, learns, and grows with confidence to reach their full potential.
Vision
Our Vision is to be the best early childhood education provider, recognised for our commitment to high quality education, safety, inclusive practices and building meaningful partnerships with families and the community.
Ivy Kids Early Learning is a family owned and owner operated childcare centre located at 438-440 Springvale Road, Glen Waverley.
Our centre has five custom designed rooms to showcase our commitment to quality, with each learning space featuring premium bathroom facilities and age-specific resources tailored to children's developmental needs. Children also engage in growing their own food in our produce garden area, featuring raised vegetable beds and fruit trees, fostering an early appreciation for healthy eating.
For older children, our adventure playground on the first floor has a bike track, large sandpit with built-in seating, sensory splash area with a mosaic-inspired pebble bed, water pump, activity fort with slide and rock climbing, two big undercover pergolas and a wide verandah so children can still play outside in all weather conditions!
Our child-focused Ivy Kids Education Program spans through our nursery, toddler, and kindergarten programs, each thoughtfully designed to nurture individual development. Through close collaboration with families and skilled educator observations, we create personalised learning journeys that celebrate each child's unique interests and potential.
Led by degree-qualified early childhood teachers, our discovery and project based Kindergarten program prepares children aged 3-6 for academic success. Our curriculum combines the best of several different curriculum approaches to tailor them to the needs of the children in the classroom, while our primary school partnerships facilitate smooth transitions into formal education.
Our fees conveniently includes all nappies, wipes, meals, sunscreen, incursions and specialist programs. We serve nutritious meals from a seasonal menu which includes daily breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and late snack prepared by our Ivy Kids Chef. We cater for all dietary and special requirements. Parents and carers can also keep track of their child’s day, developmental progress and achievements through our family app at no extra cost.
Our state-of-the-art facility prioritises security through advanced technology, including keypad entry with intercom systems, digital sign-in processes, secure safety gates, and perimeter CCTV monitoring.
