Services
We consider all children in a broader social context, where educators value the importance of consistent routines between home and Lilypad each day. Individual routines cater for your little one's specific needs. Learning is scaffolded through planned and play-based learning experiences that are designed to enhance the five vital developmental areas (language, social, physical, cognitive & emotional).
We understand that choosing a centre can be a difficult decision, so it's perfectly normal for you to have a lot of questions. To make it easier, we've put together a comprehensive list of common questions that we hear from parents. Tucker Street provides two entries: one to the basement levels and the other to the top levels of parking.

I cannot say enough good thing about Lilypad Childcare Centre. Friendly & caring educators, clean and safe environment, wide variety and nutritious food. My daughter started when she was 14 months and she is now 2 year old. I have had so much pleasure in watching her learn, grow, making friends, become more sociable in this year. My daughter definitely love this place and the educators a lot!

My daughter have been in the centre already a year. This centre is both her and my favourite, they got very nice professional educators, been very helpful to your kids. Also the facility and resources are really educational to the kids. Most important thing is the management of the centre is the best I ever seen.

I have been very lucky to have had both my kids go this daycare 4 years apart. The setup is lovely, always updating and renewing its look that keeps the children and parents both interested. The carers I've had for my kids have always been lovely, holding my kids tenderly and expressing sweet things. My kids have almost always run into the daycare with glee and come back with big smiles on their faces.
I would often stop by the kitchen for a second or so because of the aromas emanating from there for their morning tea, which was very comforting for me.

This daycare is the best thing that has happened to my family. My son loves going in and the days he goes in he wakes up super early and claps with excitement when we say daycare to him. He has been going since he was 7 months old and has formed a bond with the educators and has learnt so many new skills which will help him throughout life.

The staff at Lilypad are amazing, friendly, caring, kind and professional. And although it is mostly indoors, it has a very clean and open environment for the kids to play and learn in. Communication is always very good, from daily updates to keeping parents up to date with other Centre news. I loved being part of the Lilypad family (for both of my kids!) and highly recommend it.

My son Alex has been attending Lilypad since he was 2.5 years old, he was formally diagnosed with ASD when he turned 3, he is now 5 years old and in his last year attending Lilypad. Angela and Rachel have been helpful and very good with applying for inclusion support, coming up with strategies to help him learn more and providing the extra care Alex needs. Although my son is barely speaking, he feels comfortable coming to Lilypad in the morning and able to follow the routines of the day thanks to the extra effort put for Alex by his educators.

My daughter has been attending Lilypad since she was 12-months-old. She loves her Educators and they are so caring with her - every time we drop her off she gives them a big hug ! Being at Lilypad has definitely encouraged my daughter's development - especially socially. It also has a lot of space for the kids to play in & they offer so many different activities & learning experiences each week. Lilypad has a good energy & is always a happy place.
