Pre-School Kindergarten

I’m very thankful for everything they do, and I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe and nurturing environment for their childcare center child. Kids went to few childcare centres/pre-schools before, PHWMCC definitely tops the list. We recognise the importance of this key period in the development of our precious children.
Orchard Early Learning Centre’s philosophy guides every aspect of our approach, creating a supportive and enriching environment for children and families. Backing onto a wildlife park, all of our rooms have large glass sliding doors to encourage children to move seamlessly between indoor and outdoor learning opportunities. A minimum of two days is critical for routine building by allowing children to settle and form attachments with educators and their peers. We also ask all new families to complete a “Getting To Know You” Form, which allows our educators to get to know your child before their start date so we can ensure a smooth transition.

Safe sleep supports physical and cognitive development and emotional wellbeing. Our Baby Ambassador is your go to person for your baby's first 12 months with us. Specialist Nursery teams are baby specialists and have been trained in Safe Sleep practices for young children. Our Nurseries are specially curated environments with age-appropriate resources and a home away from home feel. I’m so happy with my son’s experience at this Heritage House Childcare! The teachers are truly amazing, they are kind, caring, and professional.

It offers the support, structure, and inspiration your child needs to thrive.

A Flying Start to School is implemented by our University-qualified Early Childhood Teachers in a way that is fun and engaging for your child and includes specific. Learning experiences in carefully curated environments that inspire curiosity, collaboration and critical thinking.

We look forward to and welcome all new families joining us in the journey and to further develop our vision at PHPS. We uphold and respect all cultures and aim to provide an inclusive environment for all children and their families.

Kindergarten is an important step for young children and is strongly recommended for all children. With almost 17 years in the industry, the family behind West Pennant Hills's Little Angels Early Learning Centre has a solid track record. All kids between the ages of six weeks and six years will receive the highest quality care from us. Your children  will benefit much from our preschool programmes in terms of their emotional, cognitive, and physical growth in preparation for school. "We aim to build a foundation of self-confidence. By encouraging children to be curious learners, we hope their love for learning developed now will continue to flourish throughout their lives".

Being with children is the most rewarding job, as everyday you get to see them grow, learn and change into strong, independent people. Children receive their own My Learning and Development Book, which is updated regularly with their progress. To BE Me is underpinned by Guardian’s world class teaching program that has been developed over many years of research and thousands of hours observing how children develop.
Accountable managers, young  talent educators as well as good experiened elderly educators consist a lovely family. My hope is that everyone who comes to PHWMCC feels warmly welcomed and a sense of belonging here. If you are considering attending PWHMCC I would encourage you to contact us to arrange a time to come and visit and take a look at our beautiful preschool.
When children are happy, they become more open to new learning and will more likely tackle challenges in positive ways and in the spirited minds of children, nothing will seem impossible. Children will develop 'happy' attitudes toward learning that can take children to all sorts of new and wondrous learning - like learning another language and being a leader or a helper. When children are happy, they are more likely to have a go and to enjoy the game rather than being more concerned about the outcome (winning/losing, what others may think, or getting answers right or wrong). EQ is fundamental in many aspects of the preschool's activities; in our dance classes; art and writing galleries; group sports activities as well as in numeracy and literacy game challenges.

Simply the best child care/preschool that our childen ever attend! All the staff are extremely caring who always make the kids feel at home. The centre also provides quite a lot of engaging activities throughout the day, including morning singing with live piano accompaniment, pet feeding, incursions and excursions that most other child care centres don't have. Preschools provide early education and care for children aged between 3 and 6, and usually operate during normal school terms and hours. Long day care centres offer early education and care for children from birth to 6, and are usually open for 48 weeks per year with extended hours.
Tours typically last 30 minutes and are a great way for your child to explore and feel at ease in their new learning space. Immersed in nature and wildlife, Orchard Early Learning’s centre on Castle Hill Road is a dream! Providing a haven for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years, filled with light, space, and surrounded by a lush Children’s Kitchen and Garden.

The Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority (ACECQA) defines seven Quality Areas under the National Quality Standard (NQS) to ensure high standards of education and care in early childhood services. Nutritious meals and daily outdoor play are also integral parts of the educational experience. You should take advantage of the opportunities for education and socialisation that arise during your child's early childhood. A child's development and readiness for school can be greatly aided by enrolling them in one of our West Pennant Hills early childhood education centres. Once a child turns 4, we recommend at least four days to help prepare them for the routine of school and build friendships that will instill confidence and teamwork skills. Once your child enrols in our centre, you will be invited to download the OWNA app and set up your profile.
We are an early learning centre where each child’s safety and wellbeing is our priority. As an Early Childhood Education student completing my placement at KPA, I have been deeply impressed by the dedication and professionalism of the educators. Our childcare centre near West Pennant Hills offers long daycare hours, so you can be sure that your child is getting the attention they need.
