Welcome to Sparrow Early Learning and Childcare Manor Lakes
At our Manor Lakes early learning centre, The Sparrow Way comes to life through play, relationships and environments designed for discovery. Inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, our educators follow children’s interests and create meaningful, hands-on experiences that encourage curiosity, communication, creativity and growing independence.
Our long-serving, multilingual team works in partnership with families, sharing knowledge and helping each child feel safe, understood and included. From art, cooking, dance and language experiences to Bush Kinder, community excursions and nature-based play, children are supported to see possibility in everyday moments. A sandpit can become a construction site, a garden can inspire a scientific question and a shared song can build confidence and connection.
Large, shaded outdoor areas with natural playscapes support movement, imaginative play and safe exploration. Our Manor Lakes kindergarten and transition-to-school program builds social confidence, early learning foundations and familiarity with local school communities while keeping play, joy and belonging at the heart of each day.
I have been in the early childhood Industry for over 7 years. In those years I have worked across all rooms and ages as both room assistant and Lead educator. Every day I carry this experience with me as I strive to care for and nurture each child as I would have wanted my children cared and nurtured for.
By the time my eldest son was ready for school I had developed a passion and interest in child development and together with my love for children I decided to follow my heart into the Early childhood sector.
