Milestones Early Learning Centre Outdoor Playground for Kids

Outdoor Play Equipment

Outdoor play is an essential experience for young children as it plays a vital role in their physical, cognitive, social and emotional development.

Each Milestones Early Learning Centre features an exciting outdoor play area for children to explore, build confidence, and develop friendships. The outdoor play area is different at each Milestones centre, but all include a large playground, sandpit and space to run, jump, balance and climb.

Meals Prepared Onsite

Each day our Centre Cooks prepare a wide variety of nutritious meals and purees onsite for the children and babies in our centres, taking the time to involve the children in meal preparation and healthy food education.

Creativity is essential when satisfying a number of young food critics every day, as is care, to ensure children's daily nutritional needs, and any individual cultural or dietary requirements are being met.

Note: A small number of our centres do not provide meals. The Centre Manager will let you know when you meet the team prior to enrolment though.

Meet Our Team

Hello! I’m Debra, the Centre Manager at Milestones Early Learning Cranbourne North. With over 20 years of experience in Early Childhood Education, I hold both a Diploma and an Advanced Diploma in Children’s Services. Throughout my career, I’ve worked across all age groups and held various leadership roles, each deepening my passion for supporting children’s development and learning.

It’s an honour and joy to be part of the early learning journey for children and their families. Celebrating milestones and achievements together is truly rewarding. I’m especially excited to share our Lifelong Learning Curriculum, which inspires children to explore, grow, and develop a lifelong love of learning. Mentoring our dedicated team of educators to deliver this curriculum is a highlight of my role.

Our centre offers a small, home-like environment with a team of long-term, highly qualified educators who are passionate about building strong, supportive relationships with families in our community. Conveniently located across the road from Courtenay Gardens Primary School, we help ensure smooth and comfortable transitions to school.

I look forward to welcoming you and your family to our centre!
