Our team of educators and teachers at Papilio Early Learning are specially trained in our unique Lifelong Learning Curriculum.

Our Lifelong Learning Curriculum draws on current research, evidence informed practices and specific age group programs such as The Circle of Security in our babies’ rooms, Abecedarian Language Priority for our Toddlers and Inquiry Based Learning Projects for Kindergarten children.

Our Early Learning Centre has a range of inspiring environments for children to explore, including spacious outdoor play areas that encourage children to test their limits, build strength, and develop self-confidence. We also offer a range of incursions, focused on fitness and health, animals and nature, and the larger community. We provide fresh and nutritious meals for the children each day.

Our indoor and outdoor environments are carefully designed to nurture each child's growth and inspire a lifelong love for learning. Our dedication to excellence shines through in every aspect, from our curriculum delivery to our unwavering commitment to providing safe, high-quality services.

    We recently moved our son to this centre and it has been the best thing we have ever done!! Amazing educators, fantastic resources and activities, and the level of communication is unmatched. I honestly wish we had moved him here sooner. Can't recommend it enough!

    The best daycare ever! Fantastic staff and management, as they truly care about your child as an individual and as a collective. My daughter has special needs and they are fantastic at taking care of her, as well as including her in activities with all children. They are on-top of her medical needs and show her so much love, as well as the other children. The children all are included and safe! I couldn’t go to another daycare after being at this one!

    Response from the owner6 months ago

    Thank you for your kind words! We are delighted to hear how much our team’s care and dedication mean to you and your daughter. It’s our priority to ensure all children feel included, loved, and supported, and we’re so pleased that this has been your experience. Your feedback truly highlights what we strive for every day!

    The level of care and support my son and I received at Papilio Early Learning Sherwood has been incredible, especially from Michelle, the Centre Manager. She made my son’s transition to daycare so much easier by allowing us to visit daily for playdates until he felt comfortable. When he finally started, Michelle personally looked after him, despite her busy schedule, ensuring he was doing well. The staff and educators are also incredibly friendly and welcoming. I'm so grateful for the experience!

    Response from the owner7 months ago

    Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback, Passant! We're thrilled to hear that Michelle and the team made your son's transition a smooth and positive experience. It means the world to us to know that you feel supported and welcomed at Papilio Sherwood!

    My son has attended Papillio for over a year now and my daughter just started a few weeks ago in the nursery. Overall we’ve had a great experience and the current staff are wonderful. My son is always happy to go and each time we pick him up you can tell he’s had a great day. My daughter’s transition to the nursery has been seamless and lead educator Kim made that possible. She’s very attentive and loving, making it easy to leave my little one with her. I am very appreciative of Papillio!
