Nido Early School Hawthorn East

At Nido Early School Hawthorn East, we provide a nurturing and inspiring environment where children from six weeks to school age can explore, learn, and grow. Guided by the Reggio Emilia philosophy, our approach focuses on child-led learning, encouraging curiosity, creativity, and discovery every day.

Our thoughtfully designed indoor and outdoor spaces offer opportunities for imaginative play, scientific exploration, gardening, cooking, and wellbeing activities. We provide delicious, wholesome meals prepared in our on-site cucinas, ensuring children receive nutritious food that supports their growth and development.

As a government-approved childcare provider, we support families with Child Care Subsidy (CCS), and from January 2026, eligible families are guaranteed at least 3 days of subsidised care per week under the new 3 Day Guarantee.

At Nido, we celebrate diversity and inclusion, acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land, and foster a strong sense of community. Every day, our qualified educators work closely with children to help them grow as curious, capable, and confident learners.
