Childcare Centre Highlights

Incursions play a large role in the development and growth of each child. Aspire Mt Atkinson North incorporates incursions to align with Aspire’s curriculum, as well as the interests of the children. Incursions on topics such as tiny mini beasts and insects, first aid, sports, and talented magicians and face painters are frequent inclusions. 

At Aspire Mt Atkinson North our in-centre chef prepares fresh and nutritious meals every day, guided by the Australian Dietary Guidelines. Our approach to food focuses on variety, balance, and mindful eating to support children’s healthy growth and development. 

We focus on variety, balance and whole foods with each meal containing vegetables, fruit, whole grains, lean proteins and dairy. Our chefs also make mealtimes special, whether it's baking a birthday cake or preparing a festive spread to celebrate an occasion. Food is a meaningful and joyful part of our community. 

Our Mt Atkinson North childcare is staffed by a team of experienced and fully qualified educators who are committed to providing the best possible care for every child. Guided by the Early Years Learning Framework and Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework, our teachers closely collaborate with families and offer every child the opportunity to succeed.

Childcare Centre Facilities

Aspire Mt Atkinson North will feature purpose-built indoor rooms and spacious outdoor areas supporting children's development from six weeks to six years old. Each room is filled with high-quality educational toys, books, crafts, and imaginative play experiences, ensuring endless opportunities for discovery and fun every day!  

Our service is a state-of-the-art facility with beautiful indoor and outdoor environments for children to learn and grow in. We have a beautiful, architecturally designed outdoor space that connects seamlessly with our indoor rooms. This makes it easy for children to move between the indoor and outdoor spaces, supporting a holistic learning experience for the children. 

The philosophy of Aspire Mt Atkinson North is to provide a nurturing second home, where a comfortable vibe fills the air. Children have the freedom to express themselves in our well-crafted play spaces, essential for their development. Our passion for early learning is evident in every detail of our program, and we eagerly await the opportunity to welcome new families to our community.

Early Education Programs

Aspire Early Education and Kindergarten operates in a long daycare setting and has four main education programs, tailored to each stage of early development. At Aspire, our quality education programs are designed to guide children’s learning and development by encouraging them to explore, discover and connect with others.

Our Baby Steps Nursery Program provides a nurturing environment, with daily activities and intentional teaching opportunities to support your child in reaching developmental milestones. Our play-based learning approach allows children to learn through sensory play, as well as build a foundation for future learning. 

The Little Learners Toddler Program is designed to create an engaging environment that supports your toddler’s social and cognitive development. We provide a fun, play-based learning approach that engages their young and active minds within a safe and stimulating environment.

Aspire’s Kickstart to Kinder program is specially designed for three-year-olds, offering a warm and engaging introduction to their kindergarten journey. Created in collaboration with kindergarten and local primary school teachers, the program supports each child’s social, emotional and early literacy development.

With a balance of structured and play-based learning, children are encouraged to explore their interests, build confidence and develop independence. This approach helps lay the foundation for a smooth transition into four-year-old kindergarten and a lifelong love of learning.

Aspire’s Step into Prep program is designed for four-year-olds to confidently prepare for primary school in a supportive and stimulating environment. Building on skills developed in earlier years, the program focuses on independence, communication, and critical thinking.

The program combines hands-on activities with intentional learning experiences designed to nurture curiosity and resilience. Our educators work closely with each child, tailoring support to their strengths and interests. This thoughtful approach helps children feel confident and ready to embrace the challenges and excitement of primary school.

What Our Families Have To Say

My twins currently attend the baby room at Aspire Truganina and we are really happy! The staff are so attentive and caring. My babies always seem happy when I arrive at the end of the day ❤️

My grandchildren attend Aspire Truganina in Room 2 and 5 and they are flourishing. I am always greeted by the ladies at the front and welcomed into their rooms at pick up. I love hearing about their day and seeing them so happy!

Amanda and her team have been amazing!
I couldn't be happier with the care and education my son is receiving from this center. The photos and daily update are such a comfort to know that my child is having a good day, which makes my day much easier as well.
It’s the little things that make such a huge difference, from greeting them by name each morning to knowing exactly what they need if the morning drop-off is a little overwhelming. Thanks everyone, esp to Alicia & Gurpreet.

Would highly recommend this to any parent embarking on the daycare journey.

I found it very daunting having to find a care child centre to enrol my little one. We found Aspire Truganina and haven’t looked back. The management team were incredible in supporting me through the enrolment process and providing encouragement as I returned to work and dropped my child off each day. The app that the centre uses provides daily updates so I can feel like I’m across what is happening from a far. Many thanks to the wonderful team at Aspire. We’re so grateful for the way you’re caring and teaching our little one. We’re lucky to have you!

I would highly recommend this centre to anyone looking for a good childcare. The centre head and all the staff are very friendly and welcoming. Their policies and procedures keep us the parents relaxed that the child is in safe hands. My child settled very fast. The educators are exceptionally dedicated. The activities they focus on help in overall development of the child. They also keep in mind the individual goals for each child and would work on them so that they are achieved. My child has become very social, active and independent and loves going there. Kudos to the entire team @ Aspire Truganina!!
