Joy Early Learning

Where Every Child's Early Years Are Loud, Beautifully Messy, and Full of Wonder

At Joy Early Learning, we believe in "the unfiltered joy of tiny humans, and to learning that feels like play." Our Ripley centre reflects the vibrant, growing community it serves, with thoughtfully designed spaces and programs tailored specifically for local families.

More Than Just a Centre, A True Community

We're not a big childcare chain. Joy Early Learning is a personal, warm, and deeply connected experience. Our centres feel like a second home, not just a drop-off point. From our nurturing nursery spaces for babies as young as 8 weeks, to our school-readiness kindergarten programs for 3-6 year olds, every stage of your child's early learning journey is celebrated here.

Learning That Looks (and Feels) Like Play

Joy centres are built for movement, creativity, and exploration. Wild, nature-rich play areas invite climbing, digging, and discovery. Whether your little one is a tiny mover in our toddler program, a fearless explorer in pre-kindy, or building confidence in our kindergarten program, every experience is designed to spark that lifelong love of learning.

Educators Who Love What They Do

Our teams are made up of storytelling pros, co-explorers, and curiosity champions—trusted hands who nurture, guide, and celebrate every small but mighty milestone. Because we believe that when children feel happy, safe, and free to explore, the best kind of learning just happens naturally.

Choose Play, Choose Growth, Choose Joy

Joy Early Learning exists for families who believe childhood should be joyful, curiosity-led, and packed with play. Ready to discover what makes Joy Early Learning Ripley special?
