Little Foundations Early Learning is a family owned and operated service operating 52 weeks a year that strives to provide our families with the highest quality care by providing a nurturing, fun, engaging and safe environment.
We provide play based developmental programs designed to stimulate and set the foundation for children’s education while equipping each child with an appreciation and thirst for learning. In addition to motivating the mind, we feel it is important to nurture the body. Hence, we provide high quality healthy nutritional meals that your child will find both tasty and appealing, and a variety of outdoor activities to further develop each child’s gross motor skills.
We see you, your child, our educators and our larger community as connected threads that, when woven together mindfully, create the fabric of learning. We deliver the highest quality care and early education for your child, combining best practice professional teachers with stimulating learning programmes and a commitment to community.
We believe learning is most effective when delivered in a caring, nurturing space that supports children to explore their world through play and use their imagination to learn.
We believe a loving atmosphere and learning through play helps children establish their own strong identity and make healthier connections with the world around them. Through shared experiences, they gain a sense of belonging and begin to develop empathy for all living beings and non-living things.
We support and encourage our families to be active contributors and participants in our centre as we believe this partnership assists in the development of a child to fulfil their full potential.
We are more than happy to assist you with any questions or queries you might have, and we look forward to partnering with your family in this stage of your child’s learning journey.
Hello and welcome to Little Foundations Early Learning Centre!
My name is Shilpa Goswami, and I am proud to be the Nominated Supervisor and Centre Director of Little Foundations Early Learning Centre.
I am genuinely delighted that you are considering becoming a part of our Little Foundations family.
As a mother of two children, I truly understand the thought, care, and trust involved in choosing the right early learning environment. It’s a journey I’ve personally walked, which is why I am deeply committed to creating a centre where families feel confident, supported, and valued from the moment they walk through our doors.
At Little Foundations, our mission goes beyond providing quality childcare. We strive to build a nurturing, inclusive, and safe space where children feel at home—a place where they are not only cared for but inspired to grow, learn, and thrive. We believe in forming meaningful relationships with every child and family to offer personalised care that supports each child’s unique needs and potential.
With over a decade of experience in the early childhood sector and a strong academic background—including a Master’s in Management and Bachelor’s degrees in Teaching and Computer Applications—I bring a blend of leadership, compassion, and educational insight to my role. My diverse career journey across various industries has further strengthened my ability to lead with purpose and connect meaningfully with families and educators.
Guided by educational theorists like Bandura and Gardner, we believe children learn best through social interaction and that the early years are crucial for laying a strong foundation for lifelong success. As educators, we take this responsibility seriously and wholeheartedly.
I know what it means to entrust your child to someone else’s care—and I want you to feel assured that at Little Foundations, your child will be embraced, supported, and empowered every step of the way.Please see the introduction of my team members.
We are a proudly family-owned and operated early learning centre with over 10 years of experience in the early childhood education and care sector. Our deep-rooted passion for quality education is complemented by our personal experience as parents of young children, which drives our commitment to providing the highest standard of care and support.
We understand firsthand the importance of creating an environment where children feel safe, secure, and nurtured—a place that feels like a second home. At our centre, children are not only cared for but are encouraged to explore, learn, and thrive in a warm, inclusive, and stimulating environment designed to support their individual needs and developmental milestones.
Our family values are reflected in every aspect of our service—from our respectful relationships with families to the meaningful connections we build with each child. We take great pride in creating a close-knit, welcoming community where families feel confident and supported throughout their early learning journey.
At Little Foundations ELC, the safety, wellbeing, and protection of every child in our care is our top priority. We are committed to creating a secure, nurturing, and inclusive environment where children can explore, learn, and grow with confidence. Our team of qualified educators and staff uphold the highest standards in health and safety practices, working together to ensure that all children, families, educators, and visitors feel safe and supported every day.
