We are incredibly grateful for our experience with Smart Start preschool School. From the moment our daughter joined, we saw her grow in confidence, curiosity, and happiness. The educators are not only professional and caring but also deeply committed to each child’s development—academically, socially, and emotionally. The learning environment is nurturing, inclusive, and well-structured, with creative activities that keep the children engaged and excited about learning. We especially appreciate the focus on building strong foundational skills through play-based learning, which has helped our daughter thrive. Communication between the school and families is excellent. We always feel informed and supported, and it’s clear that the staff genuinely value parental involvement. The school’s warm atmosphere makes it feel like a second home to our daughter—she looks forward to going every day! Thank you, Smart Start preschool for giving our daughter such a positive and enriching early education experience. We highly recommend this school to any parent looking for a caring and high-quality start for their child.

My child has been attending Smart School for almost a year now. Every day/week she makes noticeable progress. I’ve noticed her coming home and she has learnt to sing, eat with hands, sleep without assistance, and learnt to take steps. The team are always smiling and caring. Cristina is a trusted leader and always takes feedback on gracefully. I chose this childcare out of 8 others I checked in the area, as it is privately owned. We love it here!! Thank you team!
At Smart Start Preschool we believe in fostering a nurturing, inclusive, and stimulating environment that supports every child’s holistic growth and development. Our philosophy centres on the idea that each child is a unique individual with their own abilities, interests, and potential. Guided by principles of empathy, respect, and curiosity, our mission is to create a warm and safe space where children can explore, grow, and thrive both socially and emotionally.
We aim to inspire confidence and a lifelong love of learning.
1. Child-Centred Approach
We understand that children are natural learners, born with an innate curiosity about the world. At Smart Start Preschool we adopt a child-centred approach, where children’s voices, choices, and agency are prioritised. We provide a variety of learning experiences and materials that cater to the interests and developmental levels of each child, encouraging them to engage in hands-on exploration, play, and discovery. By allowing children to take the lead in their learning, we support them in becoming confident, autonomous, and motivated individuals.
2. Holistic Development
Our program is designed to support every aspect of a child’s development—social, emotional, cognitive, and physical. We view education as a comprehensive process, encompassing more than just academic achievements. By fostering social-emotional skills, promoting positive relationships, and encouraging physical activity, we create a well-rounded foundation that helps children develop a strong sense of self, resilience, and empathy for others. In our classrooms, children learn not only through structured activities but also through meaningful interactions with peers and educators.
3. Inclusive and Diverse Environment
We celebrate diversity in all its forms and believe that every child deserves respect, acceptance, and equal opportunities. Our centre is a welcoming place for children and families from all backgrounds, cultures, and abilities. We recognise that diversity enriches the learning environment, allowing children to learn about and appreciate differences. By embracing inclusivity, we teach children the values of kindness, empathy, and respect, which are essential for becoming compassionate members of society.
4. Safe and Stimulating Environment
The safety and well-being of our children are our top priorities. We are committed to providing a secure, hygienic, and supportive environment where children feel valued and protected. Our facilities are designed with young children in mind, featuring safe and stimulating spaces that allow them to move freely, explore, and develop their physical abilities. We maintain a low child-to-teacher ratio to ensure that every child receives the attention and guidance they need.
5. Family Partnerships and Community Involvement
We believe that families play a fundamental role in each child’s development. Our approach emphasises collaboration with families, valuing their insights, and working together to support each child’s growth. We foster open communication and strive to build strong partnerships with parents and caregivers. By involving families and the wider community in our activities, we aim to create a sense of shared responsibility and support that benefits everyone.
6. Play-Based Learning
Research shows that play is essential to early childhood development. At Smart Start Preschool we integrate play-based learning into our curriculum, allowing children to engage in activities that are both enjoyable and developmentally appropriate. Through play, children develop language, problem-solving skills, creativity, and social skills. We view play as an opportunity for children to express themselves, explore new ideas, and gain a deeper understanding of the world around them.
7. Guided by Qualified Educators
Our team consists of qualified, passionate educators who are dedicated to fostering an enriching learning environment. Our educators act as facilitators, guiding children’s learning experiences with a gentle and supportive approach. We encourage our educators to continue their professional development and stay informed about the latest in early childhood education. By empowering our staff, we ensure that each child receives the highest quality of care and education.
8. Continuous Improvement
Finally, we are committed to ongoing improvement and innovation. At Smart Start Preschool we continuously assess our practices and programs to align with the best practices in early childhood education. We seek feedback from families, children, and staff to evolve and meet the changing needs of our community.
