Quality Childcare and Kindergarten in Stanthorpe

 

Milestones Early Learning Stanthorpe provides high-quality childcare and kindergarten for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years, supporting families across Stanthorpe and the wider Granite Belt region, including Applethorpe, The Summit and surrounding rural communities.

Located on Lock Street, our long day care centre is open Monday to Friday from 6:30 am to 6:30 pm, offering flexible early education and care for local families.

We’re proud to be part of a close-knit community where families value connection, care and quality early learning. At Milestones Stanthorpe, children are known, supported and encouraged to thrive in a warm, welcoming environment.

Children enjoy a balance of play-based learning and intentional teaching across our indoor learning spaces and outdoor play areas, with plenty of opportunities to explore, build friendships and grow in confidence. Our educators bring genuine care and dedication to every day, creating meaningful learning experiences tailored to each child.

Through our Lifelong Learning Curriculum, children engage in early literacy, STEM and social-emotional learning. Our government-approved kindergarten program helps prepare children for school, with many families continuing on to local schools such as Stanthorpe State School and St Joseph’s School.

With fresh, nutritious meals prepared onsite daily, we support children’s wellbeing alongside their learning and development.

We look forward to welcoming your family to Milestones Stanthorpe.

Meet Our Stanthorpe Early Learning Team

Hello, my name is Samantha, or as the children fondly call me, Miss Sam, and I’m proud to be the Centre Manager at Milestones Early Learning Stanthorpe.

With over 11 years of experience in early childhood education, I’m passionate about supporting children to reach their full potential. Being part of each child’s learning journey and watching them grow in confidence and independence is something I truly value.

I believe children learn best through a balance of play-based and structured experiences, which is why I focus on creating an environment that encourages exploration, curiosity and growth. Building strong relationships with families is also at the heart of my approach, as we work together to support each child’s development.

Outside of the centre, I’m a proud mum of three boys and love spending time with my family, reading and enjoying movies together.

I look forward to welcoming your family and helping your child feel right at home.
