An Inclusive, Fun & Educational Early Learning Centre in Mitcham

We welcome you to Emmikins Early Learning Centre

Emmikins Early Learning Centre is a warm, welcoming place where children are supported to explore, learn, and grow. Our long-standing educators bring years of experience and a true passion for caring for children, building lasting relationships with families and guiding each child’s journey with love and dedication.

We may not be a new, shiny, or huge centre, but we make up for it with genuine care, personal attention, and strong connections with every child. We’re deeply family-focused, working hand in hand with local families to offer support, encouragement, and a sense of belonging for all.

With qualified, caring educators, a registered nurse on site, and our much-loved Cavoodle, Mr. Tumnus, we provide a safe, nurturing environment where every child feels valued and inspired to shine.

    We deliberately chose a small centre when thinking about care for our daughter and have never regretted our decision to choose Emmikins. Beth is very responsive and has worked incredibly hard to put together a great team. The educators are fantastic - my child feels really nurtured but also stimulated by the program on offer. Thank you Emmikins!

    Beth and her team treat the kids like family and it really shows in the closeness of my daughter’s relationship with Beth and her carers at Emmikins. Beth goes the extra mile for the children with different ideas for Christmas gifts and even went to the trouble of providing hand knit beanies one winter. I would highly recommend Emmikins to other families.
