With a convenient location in Sydneys inner west, our Young Academics Canterbury early learning centre caters for children aged six weeks to five years, providing a resource-rich learning environment designed to encourage a love of lifelong learning.
At Young Academics Canterbury we are renowned for our distinctive approach to high-quality early childhood education that is tailored to the needs of each individual child.
Our purpose-built centre creates a vibrant, stimulating learning environment designed to nurture children’s cognitive development, confidence and social skills during the critical early learning years. As a forward-thinking organisation we are constantly researching and reflecting to discover the latest advances in early childhood education.
Through our custom-designed programs – the Evolution Program and the Transition to School Program – our passionate, experienced educators, deliver a holistic education balancing organised experiences with play-based learning at stations dedicated to key skills including numeracy, literacy, STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics), music, drama and art.
Our indoor learning environment is packed with age-appropriate resources promoting imaginative play, experimentation and collaboration. Our outdoor learning environments help children develop their curiosity, gross motor skills and understanding of sustainability using resources such as building areas, sandpits, bike tracks, herb gardens and worm farms.
We work closely with families and the local community to meet children’s needs, and many families continue to visit our educators many years after their children have moved on to school.
Children enjoy five nutritious meals and snacks every day, prepared by our in-house cooks, and all nappies and wipes are included. Cot linen provided (excludes stretcher bed linen).

Our Educators support young children during this rapid period of growth and change through nurturing and responsive relationships. Our educators ensure that children’s individual needs for sleeping, eating, active and quiet play are met on time, every day.
Our environments have been strategically designed to allow Toddlers to learn, develop and explore, supporting their ever increasing sense of curiosity. Independence skills and choices are a key part of the day, building to a positive approach to learning and trying.
Our Educators support our Preschoolers to learn more about the world around them, and their impact on others Increased language skills leads to greater collaboration in play, and a greater understanding of differences.
Our Transition to School Program is designed to develop learning dispositions, providing a fluid transition into Early Stage One of the Australian School Curriculum. Increased social and emotional confidence supports healthy risk taking, making predictions and ongoing resilience.
At Young Academics, we believe the first five years of a child’s life are critical for establishing healthy eating habits, exploring new foods, and meeting essential nutritional needs to support growth and development. Good nutrition not only enhances physical health but also boosts a child’s well-being, self-confidence, and focus.
We’ve developed our unique Nutrition Program in collaboration with a qualified nutritionist. This program is designed to help children understand the importance of healthy eating, hygiene, and physical activity. We encourage children to actively participate in meal preparation and serving, fostering a hands-on approach to learning about nutrition.
Our carefully crafted seasonal menu, which rotates every four weeks, is designed to meet 50% of your child’s daily nutritional requirements. It includes a variety of nourishing foods such as vegetables, fruits, lean meats, fish, chicken, dairy products, and more, ensuring children receive a balanced diet that supports their growth and development.
At Young Academics, our Transition to School Program is a comprehensive, carefully designed pathway that prepares children for the exciting journey into formal education. We understand that this is a major milestone, and our program focuses on equipping children with the academic, social, and emotional skills they need for a smooth transition.
Our dedicated educators work closely with each child, providing tailored support to ensure they feel confident and emotionally ready for the next step in their learning journey. We focus on building essential skills such as problem-solving, communication, and teamwork, while also fostering independence, resilience, and a love for learning.
Through a combination of structured learning, interactive play, and hands-on experiences, we help children develop both academically and socially, so they feel prepared not just for the classroom, but for the social dynamics of school life as well.
At Young Academics, we take pride in setting children up for a seamless and positive transition into school, laying the foundation for both academic success and personal growth that will last a lifetime.
At Young Academics, we believe that strong partnerships between families and educators are fundamental to a child’s early learning journey. We prioritise open, consistent, and transparent communication with parents to ensure that every child’s individual needs, interests, and development are well supported.
Daily updates are shared through our secure online platform, giving families real-time insights into their child’s learning experiences, routines, and achievements. This allows parents to stay connected with what’s happening at the centre, while also opening up opportunities for meaningful conversations at home.
We actively invite parent involvement through events, learning celebrations, centre activities, and cultural experiences, because we know that children thrive when there is a shared commitment to their growth and wellbeing. Families are always welcome to share feedback, ideas, or simply spend time in our learning environments.
Whether it's during the daily drop-off, a parent-educator meeting, or a centre-wide celebration, our team is committed to building relationships based on trust, respect, and collaboration.

My son LOVES going to school. At 2.5 yrs old, he is comfortable and safe with his carers, he is challenged and given opportunities to grow and discover through play and experiences that are specifically designed for him and his peers. He is more confident and well rounded since attending the service at Canterbury
