Benefits of Early Learning
Crucial Beginnings
A child’s early years are the most crucial in their development, and they form the basis for a successful academic life, where they continue to reap the benefits throughout their future growth.
Lifelong Curiosity
We believe in keeping children engaged and stimulating their curiosity to nurture a lifelong love of learning.
Expert Educators

With specialised training and a passion for early childhood education, they create a nurturing environment where every child feels supported, inspired and ready to grow.
Play-based Learning
We offer an engaging childcare plan, delivering education through play-based learning to foster growth and development.
Love of Books
We foster a love of books, believing that they are a key tool to stimulate the imagination and encourage self-propelled learning.
Seamless Transitions
With our supportive framework, children transition into school with distinct advantages, often exceeding expected learning levels.
Built for Little Explorers
A Warm, Welcoming Environment
We understand that starting day care is a big step in your child’s life. Kids Club Early Learning Centre was designed with a vision of creating a vibrant, flexible, and inviting learning space for young children. Our facilities include large, sunlit programs, interactive indoor play zones, and exciting outdoor areas for exploration and adventure.
Our centre layout encourages both group interaction and quiet time, allowing children to engage in the type of play and learning that suits their moods and needs. This balance of stimulation and relaxation plays a key role in helping children feel secure, valued, and inspired.
Creating Lifelong Learners in Ferntree Gully
At Kids Club Ferntree Gully, every child is celebrated for who they are. Inspired by the beauty of the Dandenong Ranges, our nature-based philosophy nurtures curiosity, creativity and confidence through meaningful play and strong connections.
Our four learning rooms — The Nest, The Meadows, The Grove and The Forest — are designed to support each stage of development, from nurturing secure attachments to building independence and school readiness.
With small group sizes, passionate educators and a genuine sense of community, we provide every child with the space, care and inspiration to become a lifelong learner.
Developmental Edge
Helping Little Learners Thrive
We provide a wide range of age-specific programs that focus on holistic child development. These include:
Nest – Infant Room
Our Nest Room is a calm and nurturing space where babies and toddlers begin their journey with gentle care, consistency, and connection. Here, our educators build secure relationships that help each child feel safe, valued, and deeply understood. Through sensory play, music, stories, and nature-inspired exploration, we support every stage of early growth—encouraging curiosity, confidence, and a strong sense of belonging. The Nest is where trust takes root, and little ones discover the joy of learning in their own time.
Meadow – Toddler Room
Our Meadow Room is a space where curiosity blooms. As children begin to find their voices and independence, our educators gently guide them through playful exploration and meaningful experiences that nurture confidence and creativity. Through songs, stories, sensory play, and outdoor adventures, we help children develop a sense of self and a love for learning. In the Meadow, each day brings new discoveries, friendships, and moments of joy.
Grove – Pre-Kindergarten Program
In the Grove Room, our 3–4 year old kindergarten program nurtures growing minds through play-based learning and rich, hands-on experiences. Here, children explore big ideas, develop early literacy and numeracy skills, and build strong social connections. Our educators create a warm, inclusive environment that encourages curiosity, creativity, and confidence. The Grove is a place where children’s voices are heard, their interests are valued, and their love of learning continues to grow.
Forest – Kindergarten and Preschool Program
The Forest Room offers our 4–5 year old kindergarten program, where children are empowered to explore, imagine, and lead their own learning. Guided by the Early Years Learning Framework and our nature-inspired philosophy, our educators support school readiness through project work, storytelling, outdoor discovery, and intentional teaching. Children in the Forest develop independence, resilience, and a sense of responsibility as they prepare for their transition to school. It’s a space where learning feels like an adventure—rooted in belonging, wonder, and connection to the world beyond our doors.

Elizabeth Szekely
Educators at Kids Club Early Learning Centre are amazing! Our daughter has been going to the center for a number of years and has thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. The staff are so supportive of the children and do everything they can to support and nurture their development. They do plenty of activities and special days which was a highlight for our little girl. Educators are always full of feedback and any concerns are quickly replied to, much we found very comforting. Great, clean facilities that engage the children in play learning. We found their Kinder program amazing in helping prepare our girl for the coming school year. Can not recommend this place enough!
Chris Harvey
My husband and I initially put our 3 year old daughter into mainstream daycare and found that she was very unsettled and constantly distraught over the constant change in staff. I was told about Kids Club Early Learning Center by a friend, I called and visited the centre. Once visiting the centre I knew that educators were warm, welcoming and focused on the children's best interest. I enrolled her in there and then and have never looked back. This is a beautiful centre filled with warm staff who are just amazing with my daughter, I would gladly recommend this centre to anyone who is looking for daycare centre that focuses on our kids first.
Valerie Varga Gavriel
My daughter has been attending Kids Club since the age of 2 and it has been such a wonderful journey. This is the 3rd early learning we have experienced and by far the best. Educators are exceptional carers and educators. A hallmark of their good work is the constant feedback given to parents on what your child has been learning and where they're at in their development. The nurture provided has allowed my daughter to grow into a confident and articulate girl, with all the skills needed to tackle primary school. I recommend kids club to anyone looking for quality early learning education for their children.
