The most wonderful educators! 3 kids been there for 3 years will be so sad to leave this year they really have treated my boys so well.
- Angela Oliver
Welcome to Clovel!
Where we will work in partnership with you to prepare your child for Success. The latest brain research says start at birth so don't wait any longer.
Give your child the best start possible at a Clovel Childcare & Early Learning Centre. Located at Blacktown, Castle Hill, Wentworthville, Granville, Liverpool, Merrylands, Ryde and South Penrith.
At Clovel vital school and life readiness programs start at 6 weeks of age and enhance your child's personality and empower your child to reach full potential while all the time having fun. Clovel's early learning curriculum is a play-based model designed on what each child is good at, loves to do and is interested in. It is provided in a loving, caring, warm, homely and fun filled environment and incorporates the following:
Curriculum
Clovel centres are unique and special places where children and their families can play and learn in warm, safe, secure and friendly surroundings.
Our highly successful early learning program is based on the emergent curriculum model incorporating each individual child's interests, what each child is good at and what each child loves to do. Our belief is that if individual children are doing something they love to do they will get better and better at it and their confidence and self esteem will soar thus encouraging them to aspire to greater heights – to fly with eagles rather than scratch with chickens – the world will be their oyster!
We begin by always remembering the incalculable value for a child to have its brain wired in the early years.
The message then is 'do not let your child miss out – begin now'.
Our early learning program is designed to ensure each child is recognized as an amazingly important individual. It is based on the principle that the whole child must be developed if it is to become a well adjusted member of our society. Thus we provide the environment and experiences which will enable your child to grow and develop physically, emotionally, intellectually, culturally and socially.
Clovel's balance of structured and non structured play, explorative learning, personal choice and group participation, encourage children to develop as whole and complete individuals.
Staff
At Clovel we believe our staff members are the backbone to the caring, nurturing, developing and educating of your child – it is they who hold your child's future in their hands - for from six weeks to six years is the period when the foundation of your child's learning is created - when your child's future is determined. Research shows that by the time your child has turned 6 the academic level achieved and the career income stream attained in later life has already been determined.
Clovel staff are individually selected for their kind, caring attitude and warm friendly personality for each position at Clovel from a range of qualified and experienced candidates to ensure the achievement of our aim – that our 'Clovel' children will experience the sense of love and security we believe is imperative to allow them to grow and learn to the best of their ability in their formative years.
All staff at Clovel are either fully qualified with either Early Childhood Degree, Diploma in Children's Services, Certificate 111 or currently studying vocationally by correspondence while working in a full time capacity and being supervised by a qualified staff member.
At Clovel we pride ourselves on the length of service our staff members experience with us. Clovel success rests in part on our dedication to "growing our own staff." We have long term staff members who started with Clovel as trainees, have completed their tertiary studies and now are leaders holding Authorised Supervisors positions in charge of Clovel centres. Our longest serving staff member has been with us for over 20 years.
Government Funding for Parents and Payment Structure
At Clovel our main priority is to ensure that as many young children as possible have access to our unique high quality early learning program, Thus we always try to set our fees so that the viability of the centres are ensured while affordability for families is still achievable.
Clovel is registered for Child Care Subsidy (CCS) which is a funding scheme provided by the Australian Government for families who attend accredited childcare services. This system is administered by the centre on behalf of the Australian Government and ensures the families only need to pay a gap fee.
Features + Inclusions
For more information on how the funding works for you or to get an estimate for your child care fees please contact Maria on (02) 9649 5544 or 0425 224 518.

The educators at Clovel are amazing. They are very caring and do the best job in looking after Matilda. Matilda is always excited to come to school and see her teachers.
Tiara, Matilda’s Mum
Both of my boys attended Clovel and loved it. They were always happy to go every day and would always tell me how much fun they had!
Kate – Mason and Ryder’s Mum
The children at Clovel Childcare & Early Learning Centre Blacktown take part in a vast array of centre based programs, all included as part of the daily fee:
Performing Arts Program: the children participate in drama, music and dance, practice public speaking and perform a concert at the end of the year, all designed to encourage confidence and self-worth.
Multicultural Program: the children are introduced to other cultures through food, language, dress, games, stories and activities. The children learn songs and words in a variety of languages.
Literacy Program: starting with forming sounds and words and learning to hold a pencil correctly and moving through the stages to reading and writing. The I Love Reading phonetic program is part of the centre’s literacy program.
Numeracy Program: children are learning to count, and giving numbers a meaning with basic maths games. The children and educators discuss spatial sense, and take part in activities using measurement, estimation and pattern making.
Physical Activity Program: the team at Clovel believe that mind and body go hand-in-hand and encourage the children to participate in a daily PE program with activities such as yoga, ball skills and games, obstacle courses and many other games.
Science and Technology: this program is all about exploration and discovery, with fun experiments and activities in the daily program. Children are encouraged to think logically, participate in discussion and debate, and make connections between different concepts.
Environment and Nature Program: the educators help the children explore sustainability and look at what can be recycled and reused within the centre; the children learn about looking after their environment, with our educators involving the children in the care of their centre pets and kitchen gardens; the children also participate in a Bush Kinder program, where they are encouraged to explore and participate in activities utilising their outdoor garden spaces.
Preschool Program: this includes the early learning programs, life and social skills, and preparation for life beyond the early learning centre.
School Readiness Program: this includes the early learning program, and the educators begin to prepare the children for transition to school through practicing life and social skills such as unpacking a prepared school lunch, turn taking and speaking in front of their peers.
A unique approach to the curriculum
The children at Clovel Childcare & Early Learning Centre Blacktown participate in a variety of early learning programs and experiences. This centre is unique in that it involves children in the preschool program as soon as they start attending the centre, rather than waiting until they turn 3 years old. This includes a brain linkage program for children from just 6 weeks of age.
Play-based learning
Rather than a generic program for all children, the Clovel program is a child-specific play-based educational program. The educators will custom fit a program for each child based on what they are good at, what they are interested in, and what they love to do at their own pace. This style of programming has proven to be best in assisting in the development of confidence, independence, resilience, social skills, emotional strength and a love of learning. This helps to ensure that those vital building blocks necessary for school life and beyond are in place by the time your child transitions into formal education.
Educational Programs
Further to this, the educators extend on each child’s interests, projects and investigations in many ways. For instance if a child is interested in space, they will be encouraged to not only ask questions about space but experiment and research to discover the answers together – they might build cardboard box ‘rockets’ and brainstorm how different items may fly, create art of what we think aliens look like, take part in experiments on gravity…the possibilities are endless.
Building Life Skills
Each child will also receive support and encouragement to develop their important social skills, to aid in their transition to primary school. Through planned activities and spontaneous moments, each child will learn valuable skills such as:
Relationships between parents and educators is key for the team at Clovel Childcare & Early Learning Centre Blacktown. This relationship of mutual respect with the common goal to promote the child’s well-being is built on a true partnership of honest communication.
The centre’s philosophy is rooted by love. Their belief ‘if you’re getting the loving right, everything else will follow’ means that the educators strive to ensure each child feels nurtured and appreciated in a safe environment. Educators will always be responsive to each child’s feelings and needs, to stimulate their curiosity and thinking whilst providing a warm and loving atmosphere.
Kindyhub is Clovel’s app of choice for interactive communication between families and educators. The free app enables immediate and convenient access to view a child’s photos, learning and development progress.
I have been a member of the Clovel family for 13 years and a supervisor for 10 of those years. I love to work with the children, teach them and watch them grow. Children are our future and I love to help them learn not only the academics to get them ready for school but also the necessary skills to grow into strong independent leaders of the future.
Kate - Nominated Supervisor, Clovel Childcare & Early Learning Centre Blacktown and Castle Hill
I enjoy being in childcare with Clovel as I love working with the children and my fellow staff members. We have become one big family and it allows us to have a second home. I work in childcare to help children become better as an individual and I enjoy teaching the children new things each day and watching them grow.
Eva - Educator
I enjoy working at Clovel as I feel a sense of belonging. I really enjoy helping the children to accomplish their goals and assist them with their learning.

Being at Clovel for the past 9 years has been an amazing adventure and journey. It’s my second family and the love and support that is provided is a blessing. The children are amazing and being able to watch them grow, and learn is an amazing privilege.
Maree - Educator
I saw working at Clovel as an opportunity which I availed at the right time when I was starting my career in child care and early learning. I consider Clovel as a perfect place for a child’s upbringing and development. I enjoy every moment educating and caring for the children and working with our team of educators.
Anusha - Educator
I love being a Diploma Educator at Clovel Blacktown. I love building positive relationships with children and families and being a part of their learning process. I believe every child is a blank page on which every person can leave a mark and I feel proud to be able to leave a positive mark on each child which helps them to grow and be nourished in a healthy environment with love and care.

Eating habits
The educators at Clovel Childcare & Early Learning Centre Blacktown feel that they have a responsibility to promote good nutrition for children. All educators are familiar with hygiene standards, nutrition principles for children and food safety laws. They know that the food the children eat at the centre plays an important role in the child’s future growth and development, as well as having an impact on their future eating habits.
Munch and Move
Clovel is involved in the NSW Government Munch and Move Initiative that supports the healthy development of children from birth to 5 years and beyond by promoting physical activity, healthy eating and reduced small screen time. The key principles of the initiative include daily physical education lessons, rehydration programs, healthy eating and an increased knowledge of good food.
Clovel Menu
When designing the Clovel menu, the team committed to providing two-thirds of the recommended daily nutritional food intake for children less than 6 years of age. The children enjoy food such as: seasonal fruit for morning tea; 10 options for delicious sandwiches for lunch with fresh fruit for dessert; rice cakes, veggie sticks, healthy dips or fruit breads for afternoon tea. In line with their Multicultural Program and Special Days, the centre also regularly provides a hot meal for lunch, as well as sandwiches. Some of these include fried rice, Singapore noodles, spaghetti bolognese or teriyaki chicken with vegetables.
Promoting school readiness
For children in the months leading up to beginning at primary school, the educators offer a packed lunch to help them prepare for life at school. They practice sitting in a group, unwrapping sandwiches from cling wrap and opening packets. They also discuss what is in their lunch today and how it will benefit their health.
Morning
Ella is nine months old. She starts her day down on the mat, where her educator is blowing some bubbles for the nursery children to catch.
Lunchtime
Ella is sitting with her educator and friends for storytime. Today they are reading Peepo, which is one of Ella’s favourites. Soon it will be time to go to the sleeping area for a rest.
Afternoon
Ella and the other nursery children are learning about how to say the colours of the rainbow (in English and other languages), through songs and rhymes that her educator is teaching her.
Morning
Thomas is two and a half years old and loves to take part in the centre’s performing arts program. Today the children are working on a fun dance to a song about all of the different Australian animals.
Lunchtime

Afternoon
As part of the centre’s physical activity program, Thomas and the other children are taking part in some ball games outside. Thomas rolls the ball to his friend Zac who then passes it back.
Morning
Amy is four years old and loves to head out for the centre’s Bush Kinder program. Today she collects some twigs and leaves to make a pretend campfire with her friends.

Very good environment and great learning opportunities for toddlers and kids.
Disha Dutta
My son has been attending Clovel Blacktown since he was 7 months old, and our experience has been exceptional. The educators are genuinely nurturing and create a warm, loving environment that has significantly contributed to my son's development. The facility is well-maintained, providing a safe space for children to learn and play. We appreciate the open communication from the staff, who keep us informed about my son's daily activities and progress. A special shoutout to Catherine, Soni, Kate, Saritha, Tyana, and Asma—each of them has played such a meaningful role in my son's journey. They treat him like their own, and it truly shows in the way he connects with them and feels at home at Clovel. It's evident that the team at Clovel is passionate about early childhood education, as my son has shown remarkable growth in both social and cognitive skills. They constantly introduce new and innovative activities—from teaching sign language and expanding vocabulary to encouraging painting, crafts, rhymes, dance moves, and the values of sharing and caring—which keeps learning fun and engaging. My son is learning so much every day—always excited to go in the morning and comes home with a big smile. We wholeheartedly recommend Clovel to any parent seeking quality childcare.
This is so beautiful Disha, thank you for taking the time to show our Educators so much love! They put so much dedication and passion into our little Clovel Family. It's beautiful to watch as the children's relationships with our Educators grow and how they all interact with so many fun creative activities that have so much learning potential! I'm so glad to hear how your son is flourishing with the time he spends with us, absolutely brilliant 🥰. Thank you Disha!
