About Young Academics Early Learning Centre - Schofields, Alex Ave

Our Schofields, Alex Ave Early Learning Centre provides a nurturing, stimulating environment for children from six weeks to five years old, under the guidance of a passionate team of expert educators.

Our Schofields location joins the ranks alongside our other centres including our Mays Hill childcare centre, our Toongabbie childcare centre, our Westmead Childcare and so many more!

Children will enjoy a diverse indoor learning environment divided into dedicated spaces to develop their skills, such as a wooden blocks construction zone to enhance numeracy, a STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) area focused on science learning experiences, and a tranquil reading corner to boost literacy skills.

In the outdoor learning environment, the focus is on physical activity, exploration, creativity and collaboration inspired by a range of equipment and open space.

Educator’s balance planned play-based learning experiences with time for child-led learning, rest and reflection to enhance the unique talents and interests of each individual child.

Children up to age three take part in in the tailored Evolution Program, while those between three and five join the Transition to School Program.

To encourage healthy eating habits, children enjoy five nutritious meals a day prepared by an in-house cook.

All nappies and wipes are included. Cot linen provided (excludes stretcher bed linen).

Convenient, secure pick-up and drop-off points are available.

Get To Know Us

About the Curriculum

About the Curriculum

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.

Health and Nutrition

Health and Nutrition

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.

Kindergarten/Preschool Programs

Kindergarten/Preschool Programs

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.

Parent communication and involvement

Parent communication and involvement

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.

I wouldn’t recommend this centre. We left after my daughter was dragged across the ground by a teacher. We couldn’t stay and the management of the situation left me concerned for her safety on a daily basis untill we could get out. Since leaving we are now beyond happy at another local centre and realise this place was doing nothing positive for my daughters development. In fact, I believe this place actually set her back developmentally! All three of our kids attended this centre. It was ok under the previous management and there are some great people who have worked there over the years, but there is no way i could possibly recommend any parent send their child here based on what I now know. Your kids deserve better. Attempts to escalate concerns through area managers got weird and uncomfortable quickly. Avoid.

Dear YA I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional experience my child had at YA Early Learning Centre. The dedicated and caring staff provided a nurturing environment where my child was truly looked after. Their enthusiasm and commitment to fostering a positive learning atmosphere made a significant impact on my child's educational development.I particularly valued the consistent communication regarding my child's progress and the timely notifications of any incidents. It helped me stay informed and engaged in my child's learning journey.I highly recommend YA Early Learning Centre to other parents seeking a supportive and enriching environment for their children. Thank you once again for the wonderful care and education provided. Warm regards, Davinder Gill

We left due to a child protection issue that was handled terribly by the organisation. We were open to working alongside Young Academics to make sure nothing like would happen again so as not to disrupt our child by pulling them out, but we were instead left mortified and questioning whether those in head office actually have credentials in relation to working with children. Yes there are some good educators working within the centre itself, but should you require to engage with the organisation itself for more serious issues, good luck getting a professional, non-defensive response. No amount of good educators can make up for a bad organisation. We’re so sad for our child that Young Academics took over this previously lovely centre.
