Welcome to Milestones Early Learning Cooroy

Nestled in the heart of Cooroy on Lake Macdonald Drive, our early learning centre offers quality child care and education for children aged 0–5 years in a welcoming, nature-connected environment where little learners thrive.

We understand just how important it is to find a centre where your child feels safe, happy, and supported. That’s why our dedicated team of experienced educators creates a warm, homelike atmosphere where every child is encouraged to explore, discover, and grow in their own unique way.

Each day is filled with opportunities for play-based learning, creative exploration, and connection with nature. Our beautiful outdoor area features a veggie and herb garden, worm farm, and sustainability initiatives that help children develop a love for the environment from a young age. Inside, engaging learning spaces and our Lifelong Learning Curriculum support growth in STEM, literacy, and social-emotional skills.

Families in Cooroy love our strong community ties, close links with local schools, and our government-approved kindergarten program that helps children transition confidently to primary school. While we don’t provide meals, we welcome lunchboxes packed from home - giving families the flexibility to cater to their child’s individual tastes and routines.

We’d love to welcome your family - book a tour today and see how Milestones Cooroy can support your child’s journey, every step of the way.
