Fun & Engaging Educational Programs for Children in Mitcham
At Emmikins Early Learning Centre, we know just how precious your little one is... and we treat them that way! Our warm and nurturing team is here to provide the kind of care that feels like home, while gently guiding your child through the wonder of early learning.
We believe childhood should be filled with laughter, discovery, and meaningful relationships. That’s why we create playful, engaging spaces where learning happens naturally, and every child is encouraged to grow at their own pace.

Enriching Experiences All Year
At Emmikins, we believe that learning happens everywhere – through movement, music, nature, and joyful discovery. That’s why we offer a wide range of extracurricular experiences designed to spark creativity, support healthy development, and foster a strong sense of belonging and confidence.
Here’s a glimpse into the enriching activities we weave into our program throughout the year:

๐โ๏ธ Little Sport Heroes

๐ฆท Annual Dental Visits
We welcome dental professionals to the centre each year to support children’s oral health through gentle check-ups and friendly education.
๐ฆ WaterSafe Play
Run in partnership with the local swim school, this program is offered twice yearly (November and December) and focuses on safe water play and confidence-building around water.
๐ซ School Readiness & Local School Visits
As part of our strong transition-to-school program, we organise annual visits to local schools to help children become familiar with new environments and build excitement for the next stage of their learning journey.
Delicious & Nutritious Meals
All of our meals are lovingly prepared by Rosie, our amazing qualified cook who somehow manages to keep every little taste bud happy; no small feat!
Rosie whips up delicious, nutritious meals that meet all the recommendations from Nutrition Australia, while also catering to any food allergies, intolerances, or cultural preferences your child may have.
Rosie also has a soft spot for tiny helping hands too. Especially when it comes to preparing fruit. Let’s just say the Kinder children have a knack for making the fruit platter extra special.
With Rosie in the kitchen, you can rest easy knowing your child is safe, well-fed, eating their fruit and veggies and maybe even asking for seconds!
