Where Little Minds Grow: Inside Our Infant and Toddler Program at Kids Club ELC
Safe Small Starts
Embarking on a Learning Adventure
Imagine a place where every little giggle is a step towards a new discovery; welcome to the Infant and Toddler Programs at Kids Club ELC. Located in Dandenong North, Springvale and Ferntree Gully, our Kids Club Early Learning Centre is dedicated to providing a nurturing start in life for our youngest learners. We believe that every child deserves a strong start in life. Our Infant and Toddler Programs is designed specifically for little ones aged 6 weeks to 2.5 years to engage in an environment designed to support their earliest developmental milestones. Within our nurturing and vibrant environment, the unique features of our services highlight the ways we focus on the growth and learning journey of the youngest members of our community.
Think. Play. Repeat.
Cultivating Curiosity: Our Tailored Learning Environments
Understanding that the early years are critical for development, Kids Club ELC has meticulously crafted a learning environment that fosters growth and exploratory play. Based on the Reggio Emilia approach, our programs respect and nurture children’s natural curiosity and capacity to learn through discovery and play. This philosophy is integral to creating a space where every infant and toddler feels valued and understood, allowing them to develop confidence and social skills from a very young age. These tailored environments adapt to the evolving needs of children as they grow from 6 weeks to 2.5 years, setting the foundation for continuous development of critical social and cognitive skills.
Groove and Grow
Harmonising Development: The Power of Music in Early Learning
In the Infant and Toddler Program, we place a strong emphasis on sensory experiences that stimulate learning.
Sensory Play
Sensory play is more than just fun for babies and toddlers; it’s crucial for their brain development. These activities help them to process and respond to sensory experiences like touch, sound, and sight. This not only supports cognitive growth but also motor skills, problem-solving abilities, and social interaction.
Musical Growth
Music programs are a cornerstone of our curriculum in the Infant and Toddler program. With research showing the profound impact of music on early childhood development, our programs are designed to enhance auditory skills, encourage speech development, and instil a love for music. Gentle melodies and interactive musical play are not just enjoyable, they are also educational, helping to foster language skills and rhythmic movement.
Protective Care
Ensuring Safety and Support in Every Smile
At Kids Club ELC, we prioritise creating a safe and supportive environment where the youngest children can thrive.
- Our facilities are equipped with age-appropriate resources that are safe for babies and toddlers to use under the supervision of our highly trained staff.
- Continuous staff training and development maintain the highest standards of care, reflecting our commitment to your child’s well-being.
- Every element of our centre, from the toys and books to the outdoor play areas, is chosen with the safety and developmental needs of infants and toddlers in mind.
A Commitment to Holistic Development
Unified Support
Partnering with Families
We believe that parents and caregivers are essential partners in the developmental journey of their children. Kids Club ELC encourages regular communication between families and our educators, ensuring that parents are kept informed about their child’s progress and are actively involved in the learning experiences provided at the centre. We offer resources and support to families, empowering them to extend their child’s learning at home and enhancing the educational experience.
Future Ready
Looking Ahead
As children grow and are ready to transition from the Infant and Toddler Program to more advanced stages, Kids Club ELC ensures a seamless progression that aligns with each child’s developmental pace and readiness. Our holistic approach continues across all age groups, ensuring consistency and support throughout a child’s early education journey.
At Kids Club Early Learning Centre, we are proud to offer a setting that not only meets the educational needs of infants and toddlers but also nurtures their emotional and physical wellbeing. We invite local families to visit and see first-hand how our programs can benefit their children, fostering a lifelong love of learning from the very beginning.

We absolutely love this childcare centre, My 4-year-old daughter has been attending for a while now, and she looks forward to going every single day. The environment is so friendly, welcoming, and full of joy. The staff are caring and always make the children feel safe and happy.
It’s such a comforting feeling as a parent to know your child is in a place where they are not only learning but truly enjoying themselves. In fact, my daughter often asks, “Is it kinder today?” even on weekends. That says everything about how much she loves it there.
Highly recommend this centre to any parent looking for a nurturing and fun place for their child to grow and thrive.

We are so so happy we found this childcare. We’ve been to different centers including popular ones in Rowville and also St Kilda, but this is our favourite. It’s very caring, educators know all the kids and parents well, and full of extra activities by reputable organizations such as music lessons and soccer. This week there are so many activities to introduce the kids to the Olympics! Highly recommend it.
