Centre philosophy
Centre philosophy
A core aspect of our approach to learning at Swan Valley Child Care Centre is promoting a homely feel for your child. If your child feels at home, they are more likely to have the confidence to explore their environment and engage in the learning activities we provide.

We believe passionately that our centre’s cosy, interactive learning space assists significantly in the cognitive, emotional and physical development of your child’s needs.

The staff at Swan Valley Early Learning, always go above and beyond for the care of my child.

Keep up the good work Swan Early Learning Team.
-Amanda S.
Michelle and the team at Swan Valley Early Learning are the most amazing, supportive and truly beautiful people! My two boys were attending there when cancer suddenly struck our youngest son. Michelle and her staff went above and beyond with their generosity by organising fundraisers, delivering a truck load of Christmas presents and decorations for the boys, and sending so many messages of support and love. Our family would not have made it through without them. Michelle and all the amazing people, past and present, at Swan Valley Early Learning are so invested in the children that are in their care. They have become a second family to us. Thank you all so much for everything that you are and for all that you do. We love you all and are forever grateful!!
-Betty F.
So family orientated and my son is always first out the door to go. He loves being there with wonderful people who genuinely care. So amazing at getting the community involved, having fun days and providing priceless experiences for all the children in their care. The friendships made have been invaluable and thank goodness he has found a safe place where he can thrive. A huge win!

My grandchildren go to this Centre. It’s very homely and cozy. It’s family run which is very nice. The staff care for the children very well too.

I could not recommend SVEL enough! Before enrolling my girls I was totally against daycare centres but after walking through the centre, seeing and hearing the passion from educators and the genuine care they give, I could not have hoped for a better place to send my girls. They absolutely adore their educators and even ask to go on the weekend! Special mention to Cyndle, Laura, Chloe, Stacey, Michelle, Keira and Georgia (who have all been there right from the start for us) on their care. You’ve really got a great team, who listen to all our concerns and support us wherever needed. With a few minor issues in the beginning that were cleared up very quickly by ALL staff, the care has just grown and I feel like girls are treated like family. And thank you to Tania and the girls for being so inclusive with our allergies, we so appreciate it :)
-Leshae D.
We’re so lucky someone recommended Swan Valley Early Learning to us, it’s been such a good experience for us as parents and for our little dude! Michelle and the team in the babies room have made us feel so welcomed after a big move from interstate. Plus our little guy eats and naps better there than he does at home…Amazing!!
-Harriet W.
We couldn't ask for anyone better looking after our babies. And we just love Rosemary, Fleur and Lauren. From our first day everyone has always been professional, accommodating and we can see the care they show to our kids.

I had a very horrible experience with this centre. one of the staff told me the cook of the centre was moping the floor with a kitchen towel and later with the SAME KITCHEN TOWEL, SHE WIPED THE CLEAN PLATES. As a working in the same sector myself, I find this kind of unsanitary and unprofessional behaviour unacceptable. The manager(Nadine) is horrible and she discriminates people and Michelle, too, was part of this issue, contributing to a culture of unprofessionalism and bias. I would not recommend this place to anyone, as it fails to meet basic standards of hygiene, professionalism, and fairness. Another major issue at this center was the blatant favoritism displayed by the manager(Nadine). Instead of hiring or promoting based on merit, she chose to give a key position to her sister. This kind of nepotism creates an unfair work environment and undermines any sense of professionalism or fairness in the workplace. Read more

"I worked as a relief educator with swan valley since 2023, frequently assisting during understaffing. Despite my efforts, I encountered issues with reference checks after they agreed to review me which affected in turn has effected my job prospects. I was disappointed to find that, after relying on me to help during staffing shortages, the company couldn't verify my employment. This inconsistency has impacted my professional reputation. Prospective employees should clarify reference procedures and expectations before joining. I will not return or recommend this company due to these concerns."

I cannot speak highly enough of Swan Valley Early Learning. My two daughters attend here, with my two-year-old having transitioned from another daycare eight months ago, and my youngest starting at just eight months old. Leaving such a young child to return to work was difficult, but SVEL feels so different from other commercial daycares that are often overcrowded. It’s more like an extension of home, where the care is truly personalised. Nadine, the Manager, clearly goes above and beyond, not only in ensuring the best care for the children but also in looking after her team. She celebrates special occasions, even the little things, making every day feel special. As a parent, I always feel that my opinion matters—if I have any concerns or requests, Nadine is always willing to talk them through and genuinely takes them on board. The educators who look after my girls are simply incredible. Their dedication and care make me feel confident and reassured every day. I am so grateful to have found such a nurturing environment for my children. Read more
