6 weeks - 12 months
The passionate and experienced Educators work closely with families to ensure each baby’s routine is personalised to meet their individual needs. The children take part in activities within a stimulating learning environment. They enjoy group time for their music and movement program or special guests that come into the centre. They eat their meals and snacks with their friends under the guidance of their Educators. They enjoy taking part in songs and storytelling, sensory activities, and messy play in the garden. At nap time, they are taken into the sleeping area where gentle music and a twinkling night sky encourages them to rest.
2 years - 3 years
The Educators recognise that routines for toddlers are an important opportunity for learning. Performing daily, predictable tasks while having fun is a chance for toddlers to build their self-confidence, communication and social skills and the ability to develop their self-control. The toddlers enjoy a daily rhythmic routine which assists them to transition between activities throughout the day. They take part in activities such as music, yoga, cooking, painting, drawing, singing and dancing, STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math), based activities and the centre’s sustainability program. They also enjoy eating their meals and snacks with their friends and Educators.
3 years – 4 years
During the early years, a child’s brain is at its most flexible, making it the perfect age for learning new skills and acquiring knowledge.
Green Leaves Early Learning’s Pre-Kindergarten program is designed to provide the children with a well-rounded play based learning experience.
Supported by qualified and experienced Educators, curious children learn key skills such as creative thinking and problem-solving, develop social and emotional skills, as well as early literacy and language skills – which lays the groundwork for success later in life.
4 years - 6 years
The Educators ensure the children’s environment is fun and inviting, encouraging quality play-based experiences to help them to develop memory skills, language development and behaviour regulation, supporting the transition to school and academic learning later on in life. The children enjoy yoga, visits from special guests, and regular excursions to local parklands. They enjoy regular meals and snacks with their friends and Educators, helping to set up, serve and clear away afterwards. Other activities include literacy and numeracy games, outdoor fun with the sustainability curriculum, and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) activities to help encourage children to think creatively and critically.
Green Leaves Early Learning Merrifield is proud of their professional, motivated and passionate Educators that provide high-quality educational experiences every day for the children in their care. As a futures-orientated early learning centre, Green Leaves Early Learning integrates technology into the curriculum through the use of interactive smart board technologies.
Our Bachelor qualified Early Childhood Teachers will deliver our Kindergarten program (4-6 years old) which is designed to support our children developing their skills and abilities essential to achieving success in future learning environments.

My son has only started recently, but the kindness and support shown by all the staff has been so wonderful! He is still crying at drop off, but Usha is so kind and caring that he soon settles in. The reassuring phone call from Sam that he stopped crying immediately was so appreciated. It really eased my mind. My son is always so happy playing when I watch him through the windows at pick up time, so I am certain that he is enjoying his time at Greenleaves. The treats provided to families are so delicious and the little seating area is a wonderful place to decompress and chat to my son about his day while having a little snack. We are very happy so far and grateful for the care and kindness shown by all at Greenleaves.
Thank you for sharing your lovely experience with us! We’re so glad to hear your son is settling in well and enjoying his time at Green Leaves. It’s wonderful that the team has been able to provide the reassurance and support you need, especially during these early days. We’re grateful to be part of your son’s journey and look forward to watching him continue to grow and thrive here. Warm regards, Shanna – Green Leaves Merrifield Centre Director

Green Leaves Merrifield has been a true blessing for my 3 year old son. In other centres, it's taken him months to settle in and make connections. Green Leaves, it has only taken 1.5 weeks. The staff have been amazing, so helpful and caring. The food cooked my their chef daily has been amazing. He comes home asking me to cook the same thing. The directors are so friendly, happy to have a chat about any concerns I have. I wish I found this centre sooner. Thank you Green Leaves Merrifield Team.
Thank you for the incredible review Sarah! It is heart-warming to hear that our team’s efforts to create a home away from home for your son has had a positive impact on you and your family 🥰 Kind regards, Shanna – Green Leaves Merrifield Centre Director
