About Nido Early School Iluka

  • We actively involve members of our service community, including police and firefighter families, to support safety education. 
  • We proudly support Tiny Tots, a charity organisation that collects baby goods and essential items for families experiencing hardship. 
  • Children regularly participate in walks throughout the local community, exploring nearby streets, parks, and natural spaces. 
  • Our Beach Kinder program connects children with local lifesavers to learn about beach and water safety. 

At Nido Iluka Early School, we provide exceptional education and care for children from six weeks to school age. Our approach focuses on creating warm, nurturing environments where children feel safe, supported, and inspired to learn. Guided by the Reggio Emilia philosophy, we design programs that encourage creativity, cultural understanding, and confidence through hands-on experiences.

Safety is central to everything we do. We follow national child-safe standards, maintain clear supervision, and provide ongoing training for our educators to ensure children feel secure and cared for.

Our programs include wellbeing initiatives, sustainability practices, and community connections that enrich learning and foster a sense of belonging.

Our environments are thoughtfully designed to spark imagination and exploration. Indoors, children enjoy art ateliers and quiet spaces for storytelling, while outdoors they discover climbing areas, water play, and natural elements that encourage a connection to nature.

Community is at the heart of Nido Iluka. We collaborate closely with families and local community services to create meaningful learning experiences that support children’s growth and sense of belonging.

At Nido, every day is an opportunity to nurture confident, capable learners through safe, inspiring environments and meaningful experiences. Guided by the Reggio Emilia philosophy, we turn everyday moments into lasting learning that shapes each child’s future.

Get To Know Us

Safety

Safety

Safety matters every day.
Every day, safety comes first at Nido. Across all our early schools, we work tirelessly to uphold the highest standards in safety. This commitment underpins every decision we make and every interaction we have with children and families.

We have embedded the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations across all our practices to ensure safe behaviours, environments, and accountability are part of everything we do.

Strong supervision and ongoing training
All Educators participate in an 8-week active supervision program, along with regular training and safety alerts. This ensures teams are vigilant, responsive, and prepared for every situation.

Safe design, technology and electronic devices
Our early school layouts are designed for maximum visibility and supervision. CCTV is installed externally at most of our early schools to enhance security. For the protection of all children, the use of personal devices to take photos or videos of children is prohibited for all Nido team members, students, volunteers, and visitors.

Rigorous recruitment and compliance
Our recruitment process includes enhanced screening, comprehensive reference checks, and clear expectations around child safety. Working with Children Checks are strictly managed and continuously monitored.

Professional learning and guidance
Educators receive regular training through leading Registered Training Organisations. Policies and procedures are regularly reviewed and updated to reflect current legislation and best practice, ensuring everyone understands the behaviours and standards expected.

Comprehensive health and safety
We maintain secure single-point entry systems, and our staff are trained in first aid, asthma, anaphylaxis care, and food safety. We follow strict medication management protocols, a Cancer Council-accredited Sun Smart policy, and promote hygiene through engaging activities. Our schools take allergies seriously, including nut awareness, to help keep every child safe and included at mealtimes. Any incidents are documented and promptly communicated with families.

Parent communication and involvement

Parent communication and involvement

We value strong partnerships with families and actively involve parents in their child’s learning journey. From enrolment, we collaborate with families to understand routines, interests, and goals, tailoring programs to meet individual needs.

Communication is open and transparent, with regular updates, photos, and videos shared through our Playground App. Families are encouraged to participate in events and classroom activities, ensuring they feel connected to their child’s learning every day. 

About the curriculum

From sustainability practices and wellbeing initiatives to creative expression and early literacy, our curriculum turns everyday experiences into opportunities for lifelong learning.

We cannot recommend Nido Iluka highly enough. Our son started there at 14 months old, and our daughter joined at 12 months old. From day one, Denise and her team gave us complete confidence that our children were in the very best hands. Their care, warmth, and professionalism made us feel comfortable and reassured every single day.<br><br>Our daughter has anaphylaxis, and the support we received from Denise was nothing short of incredible. She went above and beyond to ensure our daughter was safe, including adapting the menu to accommodate her allergies. Knowing that our daughter was in such a caring and well-prepared environment gave us enormous peace of mind, and we are so grateful for everything the team did to support our family.<br><br>Our son had the opportunity to progress through every room, from the toddler room right through to the final class before kindy, and he absolutely thrived. Unfortunately, our daughter only made it to the toddler room before we moved to another suburb. The daily commute to Iluka became too difficult, so we had to make the hard decision to leave.<br><br>If we hadn't moved away, there is no doubt we would have kept our daughter at Nido Iluka with Denise and her wonderful team. We are incredibly thankful for the love, care, and dedication they showed both of our children, and we would wholeheartedly recommend Nido Iluka to any family looking for exceptional childcare.

My daughter has just started pre-kindy at school, and I truly believe Nido Iluka played a huge role in preparing her for the classroom. They gave her the confidence and encouragement to become more independent and comfortable being away from me.<br><br>The staff always listened to any concerns or requests I had and kept me updated throughout the day, which allowed me to go to work feeling happy and reassured that my daughter was settled and enjoying herself.<br><br>The centre is beautiful, clean, and welcoming, but what really makes Nido Iluka special is its amazing staff. They made our very first daycare experience such a positive one, and I will always be grateful for the care and support they showed our family.

Our family’s journey with Nido Iluka has been nothing short of incredible. My daughter started her adventure in Classroom One and has since moved through every single room in the center. ​Looking back over these first five years of her life, I am filled with gratitude. She has truly loved her experience in every class along the way. To all the amazing educators who have been by her side: thank you. You haven't just watched over her; you have played a vital role in moulding her into the cheeky, daring, and confident young lady she is today. ​The care, patience, and genuine connection she received in every room gave her the foundation to grow and thrive. We couldn't have asked for a better environment for her early years. We will miss the Nido community dearly!
