A New Kind of Early Learning has Arrived in Happy Valley
At Eden Academy Happy Valley, we’re creating more than a childcare centre. We’re creating a place where children feel safe, families feel supported, and every day inspires confidence, curiosity and a love of learning.
From the moment you walk through our doors, you’ll notice the difference. Warm, passionate educators who genuinely care. Beautiful learning environments thoughtfully designed for every stage of childhood. A welcoming community where every child is known, valued and encouraged to thrive.
Whether you’re enrolling your very first baby or preparing your child for school, we’re here to support your family every step of the way.
Why Families Choose Eden Academy:
Because nothing matters more than your child's safety
Choosing an early learning centre is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make. That’s why we’ve made child safety the foundation of everything we do.
From robust child safeguarding practices and ongoing educator training to thoughtfully designed learning environments, every decision we make is guided by one simple question:
“Is this what’s best for children?”
Because when children feel safe, they flourish.
Educators who become part of your village
We know that strong relationships are the foundation of a child’s early years. That’s why our educators are chosen not only for their qualifications, but for the kindness, warmth and genuine connections they build with every child and family.
We take the time to truly know every child, creating a sense of belonging that helps them feel confident, secure and ready to thrive.
Learning that prepares children for school and life
Our play-based educational program inspires curiosity, creativity, confidence and independence through meaningful learning experiences that support every stage of your child’s development.
Guided by the Early Years Learning Framework, we nurture the skills children need for school while encouraging a lifelong love of learning.
Fresh, chef prepared meals every day
Healthy bodies fuel curious minds. That’s why our in centre chefs prepare fresh, nutritious meals and snacks every day using wholesome, quality ingredients that support children’s growth, wellbeing and learning.
Our seasonal menus are thoughtfully planned using a wholefoods approach and are designed to provide children with the nutrients they need to learn, play and thrive. Through our partnership with Bable, our chefs receive specialised children’s nutrition training, giving families confidence that every meal is created with growing bodies and minds in mind.
Throughout the day, children enjoy:
✓ Breakfast ✓ Morning Tea ✓ Lunch ✓ Afternoon Tea
Purpose-built spaces designed for childhood
Every indoor and outdoor space at Eden Academy has been thoughtfully designed to inspire exploration, imagination and discovery.
From calm, nurturing nursery environments to engaging outdoor play spaces, every detail encourages children to learn, play and grow with confidence.
Meet Jess
Hi I’m Jess,
With over 20 years of experience in Early Education and Care, I am passionate about creating nurturing, engaging environments where children feel safe, valued, and excited to learn. I believe the early years are so important for lifelong learning, confidence, and wellbeing, and I feel incredibly privileged to be part of each child’s journey.
As a mum to three beautiful children, I understand the importance of finding a place where families feel supported and children are genuinely cared for. Outside of work, I love spending time exploring the outdoors with my family, baking, reading, and making the most of the simple things!
Building strong relationships with children, families, and educators is at the heart of everything I do, and I am committed to providing the highest quality care and education.
