At Milestones, every child benefits from our exclusive Lifelong Learning Curriculum - Australia’s most advanced early education program, designed to support their development from the nursery through to school readiness. Grounded in the latest research, our play-based curriculum builds strong foundations in confidence, communication, creativity, and wellbeing - preparing children not just for school, but for life.
Nurturing Growth from 0–5 Years
At Milestones, we offer more than just child care — we provide high-quality early education in a safe, nurturing environment for children aged six weeks to five years. Our experienced educators deliver age-specific programs designed to support each stage of development, helping children grow in confidence, curiosity, and capability every step of the way.
Babies (0-1 years)
Healthy Beginnings Program
Grounded in attachment theory and the relationship practices, this program focuses on building secure, responsive relationships between babies and their educators. With nurturing care and emotional attunement, we support babies’ overall wellbeing and development.
Toddlers (1-3 years)
Early Experiences Program
Inspired by the Abecedarian Approach, our toddler program emphasises language-rich interactions, such as conversational reading and learning games. These early experiences build the foundations for strong communication, social skills, and cognitive growth.
Preschool or Kindergarten (3-5 years)
School Readiness Program
Through Project-Based Learning, children are encouraged to explore big ideas, solve problems, and collaborate with others. This hands-on, inquiry-driven approach develops critical thinking, independence, and a love of learning that lasts.
Committed to Safety and Quality
At Milestones, your child’s safety, wellbeing, and early learning journey are our highest priorities. We follow strict safety protocols as part of our Safety Commitment and operate in line with the National Quality Framework - Australia’s benchmark for early childhood education - ensuring high standards, consistency, and a nurturing environment where every child can thrive.
