Our Nutrition

We aim to instil in all children the importance of maintaining a lifelong respectful relationship with food with a particular focus on nutrition & sustainability. It is important children understand where food comes from and we use fresh produce from our own vegetable gardens wherever possible.

Our Environment

At Apple Blossoms, we strive to provide an environment where children, families, and staff feel at home. Our environment inspires creativity, it provides a place of wonder and excitement, and it allows children to develop at their own rate.

Learning & Education

At Apple Blossoms Early Learning we are passionate about the learning journey the children and Educators go on every day while they spend time in our environment. Our Curriculum is grounded in the Early Years Learning Framework and inspired by Reggio Emilia.

Very Satisfied with them. We were struggling to find a good child care who actually care for your child and especially Food as well. and one of my colleague Suggest me Apple Blossoms and I am happy to say that My 19 month old Daughter Loves her School. We surprised that even on the weekend she says "Go" and she stopped crying even when we drop her. I must say she feels very comfortable there and established a bonding with her educators. I never find these much friendly staff. They are the Best Child care we ever found My Daughter loves there and she eats well too and come home Very happy. Thank God I find this Child Care for my Lil daughter. 🙂 Thank you Girls!. She is in Baby-2 Room.

We only recently enrolled our daughter at Apple Blossoms having come from another centre. The change in my daughter has been amazing! She is happy to be dropped off and always happy when i pick her up in the afternoon. I know she's had a great day as she is usually in no rush to leave! Not to mention all the activities the staff organise for the children to aid their development. I love getting the updates on what they've been up to during the day. The staff are friendly and welcoming and made us feel at ease from day one. Couldn't be happier!

My 2 ½ year old daughters have been attending Apple Blossoms for only a few short months but are already so settled and confident which to me speaks so highly of this beautiful centre and the lovely staff! Everyone is so welcoming and as soon as we walked in the door for a tour I immediately felt calm and knew this was the centre for us!! Highly recommend to all 😊

I have two children at Apple blossoms and it is hands down the most loving nurturing centre I have had the pleasure of using.My toddler comes home happy and content from his fun filled days. The variation of indoor and outdoor activities are brilliant. From painting to baking they are constantly being stimulated. Not to mention the delicious food on offer, cooked and prepared on-site. My baby is always cuddled and adores all the educators. I am kept in form with all her daily routines through a lovely app called story park.I highly recommend this centre to anyone in the area. I will continue my children at this centre until they are ready for school. The staff are so supportive to the parents and their concerns and anxieties of leaving their young ones. Always there to lend a ear and nothing is too much trouble.What you waiting for... Get your treasures enrollled in the Apple Blossoms family

Both my children have attended Apple blossoms. They love attending.My youngest is in kinder and can't stop talking about the wonderful adventures she has each day.The room is well planned out with lots of different activities and she is learning so much.The teachers and leaders in the rooms are very caring and compassionate taking into consideration each child's needs for learning and growth.The smell of food cooking each morning makes me jealous that I'm not eating here too. Such a wonderful place to send your children and would recommend this centre to everyone.

Apple Blossoms has been the best experience for my 2 year old. In just a few short months he has become a strong out going little boy who loves going and loves the girls that work there! Staff like Nicole and Olga keep us up to date with how he goes and do everything they can to make him comfortable and happy! As parents We could not be happier!!!

Could not speak highly enough of this childcare centre. From the enthusiastic, genuine care our children receive. To the nutritional foods provided. Leaving both our children at a childcare centre full time was a decision that my partner and I did not take lightly. The friendly staff made the process so much easier with their knowledgeable answers to all our ridiculous questions and kind, nurturing demeanor with the kids (even when we sneak in and they think they aren't being watched).

I have two kids at Apple blossoms, one in the baby room and one in the toddler room. We have come from two centres before Apple blossoms. I just wish I’d found apple blossoms sooner instead of wasting my time at other centres! I honestly can’t rave enough about the girls in both rooms. They go above and beyond to make sure my kids feel loved and have fun. These two things were very important to my partner and I with childcare because our kids will be in full time care. The food is amazing and the centre is very clean. I show up at different times unannounced to pick up my kids and I always find them cuddling, smiling and playing with my son in the baby room and playing, reading, dancing or doing a different activity in the toddler room. They go to a lot of effort setting up lots of different activities every day to keep the kids from ever getting bored. 5 stars from us!! Will never take my kids anywhere else

    This is an excellent childcare centre. I wouldn't consider sending my child to any other private centre in this area. … More Apple Blossoms works hard to include and care for each individual child. Tina the manager is so responsive to parent concerns and the social-emotional learning curriculum is integrated at every stage of learning, from sensitive nappy changing to planned activities. My daughter has grown leaps and bounds in her language, friendships, and artistic endeavours since being at Apple Blossoms and, most importantly to us as parents, she is happy and loved. We are so grateful for how her educators have worked with us to meet her unique needs and now she is so happy to go and even sometimes asks to play there on her days off. We would recommend this centre to anyone. ☀️🌈❤️

    My daughter enjoys and loves going to childcare. It was a difficult transition for first time parents like us but the educators … More in nursery and toddler and Tina (director) helped us a lot. We love how Tina posts a lot of announcements and reminders to Storypark. The educators are amazing and caring. They are also detailed with the routine reports and the highlight for us is the weekly activity reports. It is just so nice to read and get updated about our daughter's learnings and improvement. We really like this place. The learnings does not just focus on academics but also an incorporation of lots of play and emotions which is imperative to development.

    Apple Blossoms Daycare is truly an amazing place for children. I am so glad I made the decision to move my children from … More their previous daycare center to Apple Blossoms. Every room, from the nursery to the toddler room and kinder room, is filled with caring and dedicated staff who consistently go above and beyond to ensure the best possible experience for the children. Tina at the front desk deserves a special mention for her exceptional service. Thank you, Apple Blossoms, for all that you do.
