Toddler Program at Early Learners Hub: Growing Independence Through Play
Hands-on learning for confident toddlers
At Early Learners Hub, our Toddler Program is designed to nurture children’s curiosity, confidence, and independence. We know these years are filled with exploration and rapid development, and our educators provide a warm, engaging environment that supports your toddler every step of the way.
Our Toddler Program focuses on hands-on experiences that help children build self-help skills and confidence in their capabilities. Each day, toddlers are encouraged to practise:
Toileting and handwashing
Dressing themselves and applying sun cream
Self-serving meals and snacks
Tidying up and caring for their environment
Using manners and developing social skills
These everyday moments are important foundations for growing independence, fostering a sense of pride and accomplishment as toddlers learn to do things for themselves.

Our program offers a rich mix of sensory play, music and movement, imaginative experiences, early literacy and numeracy activities, and plenty of outdoor exploration. Educators observe each child’s interests to plan engaging activities that inspire learning, build fine and gross motor skills, and support language development.
Learning through play and exploration
We maintain structured routines that provide security for toddlers while also offering flexibility to meet individual needs and follow children’s interests. This balance ensures every child feels safe, supported, and ready to learn.
Flexible routines that support development
Our Toddler Program is available at both our Albion Park and Blackbutt centres in the Illawarra region. Our dedicated teams create nurturing spaces where your child’s independence is celebrated, and their growth is supported.
