As a mum of 3, I have tried a number of the local daycares and Eden is handsdown the best. The staff are so friendly, the centre has a calming vibe, the rooms are always clean and smell nice and the kids are so well looked after. My son comes home clean, well fed and exhausted from such a great day of learning through play. I recommend them to anyone looking for care in the area.

About Eden Academy Riverhills

For children aged 6 weeks to 5 years, Eden Academy Riverhills offers a creative and inspiring learning environment. The educators empower the children to grow and develop in all areas, building their knowledge of the world around them while becoming compassionate, inclusive and kind learners. The children engage in imaginative play alongside their peers in their home away from home.

The spaces inside the centre feature large windows that filter natural light into the rooms. Wooden floors and panelling on the walls help to create a calming environment conducive to learning. The open plan rooms are flexible to adapt to the different learning styles of the children, allowing for a range of different activities throughout each day. 

The outdoor environment is similarly engaging with gardens, grass and covered areas for all-weather play. There is ample room for the children to explore freely, encouraging them to use their imaginations as they design their own adventures and play. 

Conveniently located opposite Middle Park State School, the centre is a short walk from nearby Sumners Road bus stops. Parents can also use the onsite car park for easy access at pick up and drop off. Why not book a tour of this welcoming and modern centre today?

Get To Know Us

Programs

Programs

With a holistic focus, the program at Eden Academy ensures the children grow in all areas of their development. This includes social, emotional, physical and cognitive skill development. 

Nature is an important part of the program, teaching the children to respect and care for the environment. The children learn how vegetables grow and enjoy nature play activities. They understand the calm of spending time outdoors and enjoy all of nature’s creations.

Health and wellbeing is another focus of the program. The children learn about healthy eating and nutrition through the meals prepared by the centre chef. The centre also worked with allied health professionals, including speech pathologists, physiotherapists and occupational therapists, to ensure the children have every opportunity to thrive.

Meet the team

Meet the team

The educators at Eden Academy work in a supportive and caring environment. With a higher educator to child ratio than required under the national quality framework, the educators have more time to dedicate to individualised attention. 

In addition to annual First Aid, Anaphylaxis, CPR and Asthma training, the educators are also encouraged to participate in ongoing professional development. This ensures they are across the latest thinking and research in the sector. The educators work collaboratively as a team, sharing their knowledge and skills with each other.

Parent communication and involvement

Parent communication and involvement

Through play-based learning and fun activities, the educators at Eden Academy teach a holistic and age-appropriate curriculum. Aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework, the curriculum goes above and beyond to nurture each child and their unique talents, needs and interests.

The curriculum is delivered across four different learning environments:

  • Nursery (0 – 15 Months): the educators foster the children’s imagination, providing them with sensory experiences and opportunities for mindfulness.
  • Toddler (15 Months – 2 Years): the children develop their social and emotional skills, including sharing and independence. 
  • Pre-Kindy (2 – 3 Years): the educators balance fun and play with a steady introduction to structured learning. The children develop early friendships and build on the foundations of their physical and motor skills.
  • Kindergarten (3 – 5 Years): the children start to prepare for the transition to school through a more formal learning environment. Rest, play and fun are still important elements in the day, with imaginative and sensory activities that help to build critical thinking, confidence and independence.
Safety

Safety

Rigorous Recruitment & Screening - All Eden team members undergo thorough checks — including Working With Children, ID, work history, references, right to work, background, and child protection training — to ensure the highest safety standards.

Clear Policies & Procedures - We have strong systems in place for reporting and responding to concerns, guided by our Child Protection Policy, Code of Conduct, and Risk Management and Incident Reporting processes.

Team is incredibly lazy and they have a horrible and rude old lady called Audry, she drags children and scolds them. She is disrespectful to her colleagues and parents. Waiting for operations manager to support management team of the service better.

As a first-time mom, i was nervous sending my precious bundle of joy to childcare, but Eden have been wonderful. They encouraged me to call and check in anytime. They keep me up to date with my boy's activities and adventure explorations. They ensure children are engaged in activities which will promote development, and have been very accommodating with transitioning to solids when he was ready. I am glad we have chosen Eden Riverhills to look after our son.
