About Nido Early School Essendon

Welcome to Nido Early School Essendon!

Catering to children aged 6 weeks to 6 years, Nido Early School offers a warm and nurturing learning environment. Following a Reggio Emilia-inspired approach, the educators engage the children in a fun, play-based learning. They deliver an innovative program that helps children develop the skills they’ll need to successfully transition to primary school. 

The light-filled interiors are bright and inspiring, drawing the children into their learning. The rooms are well-resourced with calming, natural resources, with each room catering to different learning styles and offering ample space for both individual play and group activities. 

Outdoors, the children are free to explore the incredible play area and immerse themselves in nature.

Reviews for Nido Early School Essendon

Marie19 days ago

I took my children out of this centre a few months ago and it was the best thing I did. My son was hysterical every morning at drop off and it was a challenge being able to leave. At pick up, he’d have a breakdown in the car which would last all night. It appeared his room didn’t conduct any learning activities, the kids weren’t nurtured, the room was always a mess by 9am, and he was left to his own devices all day. The final straw were these allegations, of the worst kind, and how it was handled after they came to light. As a parent, I felt incredibly concerned about the safety of my kids. I no longer felt my kids were safe here. Just read the other reviews. My kids are at a new centre, my son enjoys going, he comes home happy, I receive updates on his learning objectives weekly, and his behaviour has totally changed. I have my happy kid again.
