 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been with Little Beginnings for almost 7 years now, with both of my children. We have watched it becomes such a wonderful warm place once it was taken over by Leanne and Viv. It was so nice to know all the staff so well when it came time for my youngest to start attending. The team have flourished, especially with Vivian, then Hema becoming part of the management/Director team. Fantastic communication, they will happily talk with you anytime that you need. They really do love our kids and care for them so well. My son has a food allergy too, and they are very mindful and careful about it. All the amazing workers in Baby/Toddler room work so well with my daughter who has severe speech delay, she loves them! Kacie has been wonderful in supporting my son with school drops offs and Vac care. I look forward to more years ahead, with my youngest moving up to be with Patsy in Kindy room soon, who was so wonderful with my son too. All staff are friendly, welcoming and so helpful. Cannot recommend this daycare enough.

He has always been happy to go …the staff are fantastic , they are always welcoming to the children and families. The rooms in the centre are full of beautiful toys and equipment to engage active and enquiring minds. The staff are well trained and you can just tell by the looks on their faces that they just love those children …..The outdoor play area is also well equiped with good quality static and moveable equipment, they have fort style climbing area with a slide , lots of bikes and balancing frames and mats. The outdoor area is well shaded and always kept in tip top condition. Our family can’t thank you enough for being such a positive influence on our lovely boy . I would recommend Little Beginings to anyone who is looking for a family run daycare that treats your little one just like you would yourself .

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Such an amazing centre. Both our children attend, my daughter in the babies room and my son in kindy. My son started at 10 months old in babies and the care they have shown is above and beyond a ‘just a job’. These ladies clearly love what they do! And the communication and updates are spot on. The team at Little Beginnings are such an asset to Forrestfield! Some of us don’t have close family in Australia to call on but the team at Little Beginnings have become our family 💖 They are compassionate, caring, welcoming and I can not thank them enough for all of their help 😍

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We feel incredibly grateful to be part of the Little Beginnings Forrestfield community. From the moment our sons started, we have felt genuinely welcomed and supported, and it’s clear how much love and care goes into everything the educators do. We have seen our boys grow in confidence and independence since attending. It gives us such peace of mind knowing they are in a safe, caring environment where they are encouraged to learn through play and curiosity. Communication with families is excellent, and we always feel informed and involved in our children’s days and development. The centre itself is warm, inviting and thoughtfully set up to support learning, creativity and fun. We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Little Beginning and highly recommend it to any family looking for a caring, supportive and genuine early learning environment in the Forrestfield area.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We've been at this daycare for over 6 years, and i cannot speak highly enough of the care and dedication shown by every single educator here. What stands out most is how genuinely warm and friendly they are as soon as you enter the door. The owners and educators have created a real family atmosphere. In the years i have been here they have expanded the centre and upgraded the outdoor play equipment...that i can never get my boy to leave at pick up as he is having so much fun but they are constantly upgrading equipment/furniture and toys. My children have thrived here and i feel incredibly fortunate to have found such a nurturing and professional enviroment for my kids.  I would recommend this daycare to any family without hesitation.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve been very happy with this day care centre. My daughter started when she was 1 in the baby room. the staff have always been so caring and attentive. Drop offs are much easier knowing she’s greeted with cuddles and kindness. Everyone is friendly and I’m genuinely thankful for the work they do. She’s thriving, loves seeing her friends, and we really enjoy the daily updates on the app showing the different activities they do. They also have a branch in Beckenham, which my daughter attended first while we were waiting for a spot at this centre. Both facilities have been wonderful

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 – Amazing Daycare! I couldn’t be happier with the care my two boys receive at this daycare. One is in the Babies Room and the other is in the Kindy Room, and both of them absolutely love it. The educators are so patient, caring, and genuinely invested in the kids’ wellbeing. The Babies Room team treat my little one like their own, always keeping me updated and making sure he feels safe, loved, and comfortable. My older boy in the Kindy Room has learned so much—his confidence, social skills, and independence have all grown so much since starting here. The communication is excellent, the environment is always clean and welcoming, and the staff go above and beyond every day. I feel so grateful knowing my boys are in such good hands. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a supportive, trustworthy, and nurturing childcare service.

A balanced approach to early learning

We know that no two children learn the same way. That’s why our early education centre focuses on a balance of guided learning and play-based exploration.

Our early education teachers design experiences that feel like play but are carefully planned to support development across all key areas. Whether it’s problem-solving through games, storytelling, creative play, or group activities, every moment has purpose behind it.

You’ll see your child learning without feeling like they’re being “taught”—and that’s where the magic happens.

Learn more than ABCs and 123s

School readiness is about more than letters and numbers, after all that’s what they learn at school! Instead, pre-kindy is about helping your child feel comfortable in a structured environment, follow instructions, build friendships, and express themselves.

In our Forrestfield childcare program, we focus on:

Because when children feel secure and capable, learning naturally follows. This is about setting them up for success throughout their school career with a solid academic and emotional foundation.

Pre-kindy School Readiness Program Frequently Asked Questions

Why are school readiness skills important?

The development of school readiness skills allows schoolteachers to expand and further develop a child’s skills in the specific areas of social interaction, play, language, emotional development, physical skills, literacy and fine motor skills. Without these basic skills already established upon entry to school, children can very quickly find themselves playing ‘catch up’ compared to their peers that are advancing more quickly. children that begin school with the building blocks or foundation skills in place advance quickly as opposed to those that start school only to then begin the slow process of developing school readiness.

What are group sizes like in the pre-kindy program?

As a small family run service, we take pride in our commitment to small group numbers.

Smaller group sizes allow for more individualized attention, which is important for the developmental needs of kindergarten-aged children. It enables educators to better support each child’s learning and social-emotional development. A smaller group size can contribute to a more effective learning environment, allowing for organised and engaging activities that cater to the needs of each child. Children feel more comfortable expressing themselves and participating in group activities when in a smaller setting.

Can I come for play dates prior to enrolment start date?

We encourage play dates prior to your pre-kindy enrolment start date, these will allow your child to explore the new environment with you present, It is a wonderful way to help your child transition smoothly.

Every child is unique, and their reactions to new experiences can vary. Some children may thrive with playdates and social interactions, while others may need more time to adjust. Our educators will be attentive to your child’s cues and comfort level, and will always prioritize positive and enjoyable interactions.

How do I get updates on how my child is going through the day?

We understand how hard it is to be away from your child, so we are committed to sending you updates throughout the day through our interactive parent app Xplor.

We are always available on the phone, via email or available to discuss your child on drop off or pickup.

We maintain a close partnership with our families, keeping you informed about your child’s daily activities, milestones, and moments of joy is our priority
