About Forestville Early Learning Centre

We are conveniently located for families in or commuting through Forestville, Frenchs Forest, Killarney Heights and Belrose in Sydney. Many of our Children go on to attend local schools such as Forestville Public School, supporting a smooth transition to school.

We offer nurturing care and quality early education for children from 6 weeks to 6 years, with flexible hours (9, 10, 11, and 12-hour sessions) to suit busy families.

Our Learning Environments

Our children benefit from familiar faces as they grow, creating a sense of continuity:

  • Nursery (0-2 years): A safe, nurturing environment for babies to explore with tailored sensory and social experiences.
  • Toddler (2-3 years): Play-based learning encourages curiosity, confidence, and social skills.
  • Preschool (3-6 years): A stimulating learning environment that prepares our children for school through our Enhanced Learning Program.

We’re proud to have qualified teachers and educators, supported by a team of national education experts, ensuring the highest quality childcare and early education.

Innovative Early Learning Programs

Our teachers deliver the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF or the national curriculum) through play-based learning that covers language, literacy, numeracy, STEM, social, and emotional development. Our program also includes:

  • Rhythm and Movement for Self-Regulation (RAMSR), an evidence-based program developed by Queensland University of Technology to support children’s executive function and self-regulation.
  • Environmental and social sustainability learning experiences.
  • Personalised learning plans for each child.
  • Local school connections.

We focus on strong family partnerships through regular learning and development conversations with your child’s lead educator, learning showcases, and in-centre family events. Our Xplor app provides real-time updates and learning summaries daily to keep you informed on your child’s journey.

Reviews for Forestville Early Learning Centre

Ashleigh & James Coburn18 days ago

I couldn't speak more highly of the team at ELC and the caring community they've created. Our daughter was in the infant room and from the very start we knew she was in safe hands - we've since relocated overseas and were extremely sad to be leaving ELC. We would recommend ELC to anyone looking for a community feel where the teachers genuinely care

Response from the owner17 days ago

It is wonderful to know that your daughter felt safe and supported from the very beginning, especially during her time in the infant room. Creating a caring and connected environment for our families is something we are very passionate about. We are grateful to have been part of your family’s journey and wish you all the very best in this next chapter. Thank you again for your recommendation and support. Kind regards, The team at Forestville Early Learning Centre
