About Nido Early School Essendon

Welcome to Nido Early School Essendon!

  • Unleash curiosity with diverse activities like cooking, dance, languages, music, sports, yoga, and more.
  • Immerse children in Reggio Emilia-inspired spaces, fostering hands-on sensory experiences.
  • Prioritise body and mind nourishment with exclusive, sugar-free wholefood menus prepared in on-site kitchens.

Catering to children aged 6 weeks to 6 years, Nido Early School offers a warm and nurturing learning environment. Following a Reggio Emilia inspired approach, the educators engage the children in fun, play-based learning. They deliver an innovative program that helps children to develop the skills they’ll need to successfully transition to primary school.

The light-filled interiors are bright and inspiring, drawing the children into their learning. The rooms are well resourced with calming, natural resources, with each room catering to different learning styles and offering ample space for both individual play and group activities.

Outdoors, the children are free to explore the incredible play area and immerse themselves in nature. While they play, they develop their gross motor and physical skills and also work on their social skills, such as sharing and communication. The children are encouraged to use their imagination and create their own adventures while they play.

Conveniently located close to public transport, the service also offers ample parking on site to help with drop off and pick up.

We recognise the importance of selecting the right Early School and are committed to nurturing a love for lifelong learning.

Our daughter has been going to this centre for almost a year now, and it genuinely feels like a real community. From the induction through to the trial days, the experience has been smooth and positive and most importantly, our little one absolutely loves it. She’s built great connections with several educators, and it really shows at drop-off and pick-up when she’s all smiles. We really appreciate the collaborative approach between educators and parents. Every few months we set new goals together, which helps guide her learning and development. The centre’s app is also fantastic it’s so nice being able to check in on her day and see photos of what she’s been up to. Recently our daughter needed glasses, and the educators couldn’t have been more supportive. They even ran a little session to help explain it to the other kids, which meant a lot to us! Highly recommend Essendon Nido
