Dragonfly's Early Learning
Dragonfly's Early Learning specialises in child care on Sunshine Coast. Our focus is for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years located in the heart of Coolum. We believe in getting back to basics and building a warm, nurturing and natural place where children feel valued and supported. Our purpose-built centre includes four fully equipped, spacious indoor rooms for each age group.

We believe outdoor play is important for child development, and our centre features three large, natural outdoor playgrounds including "The Forest" playground filled with big, beautiful trees. We provide the Stephanie Alexander Gardening Program, promoting garden to plate and fostering positive food habits through fun, hands on learning.

At Dragonfly's Early Learning, we believe in getting back to basics and building a warm, nurturing and natural place where children feel valued and supported. Our play-based curriculum is interactive and exploratory. We believe in providing a natural learning experience with a rich variety of sensory materials such as mud, sand and paint, and equipment such as puzzles, lego and music.
Best daycare ever! The pictures and daybooks make it all the worthwhile, actually being able to see how much fun my little girl has! The activities they have for them are great, such a variety and the menu is fantastic. I couldn't recommend this centre enough. First centre we looked at and we were more than impressed.

A few days ago I had booked in a tour at Dragonfly's in Coolum and I am very disappointed about our tour. It felt like we weren't welcome and wouldn't fit into the daycare, of course I can be wrong with this, but the tour was like 5-10 minutes and just a quick show around. I do understand that they are busy and that they have lots of on the plate and to do, but that wasn't the only daycare I had visit and all other daycares took their time and talked to us/ me and explained everything and showed us around and even let my son play for a little bit under my supervision (thats why you book a tour

My little boy comes here and just loves it! So much so he is asking for his educators at the weekend and has to put up with boring old Mum instead!
There is so much outdoor play, socialisation with other kids, arts and crafts and yummy healthy organic food, including food grown in their own garden. The educators all seem really happy and are extremely active in their play with the kids.
I have also noticed a lot of positive changes in the last 6 months for people who may have been here before it became Dragonfly's.
And... they even provide the nappies!

Best Daycare ever!
First time mum and going back to work I was so scared to leave my daughter for the first time in 11 months. The girls at Dragonflies were more than accommodating. I was able to come in before we started for visits which was great as both baby and I were able to get use to it. I was able to call as many times a day as I’d like to check in on my daughter and talk to the girls which made me feel so much better. The pictures and daybooks make it all the worthwhile, actually being able to see how much fun my little girl has instead of hearing about it. We are always greeted by

My 2 year old just recently started attending Dragonfly and she absolutely loves it. We are so lucky to have found such a brilliant centre. It has taken the stress out of our relocation from Adelaide knowing that she is well taken care of and is excited to go every morning. Every day Zoe takes part in a variety of fun filled activities, from painting to dressing up and even gardening. Their outdoor area is amazing! I wish I could hang out there all day. I look forward to the daily 'Daybook' and love seeing photos of all the fun that goes on. The staff at Dragonfly are friendly and welcoming and
