Our team

We have an experienced team of leaders and educators at Nido Swan View. What’s most important to our team is building genuine, trusting relationships with the children. We see them as capable, curious individuals who bring their own ideas, strengths, and perspectives into our space each day.

In our daily practice, this shows up in the way we slow down and really listen — whether that’s through conversations, observing their play, or following their interests. We work together to create environments that invite exploration, creativity, and connection.

We value collaboration, not just with the children but with each other and their families. Each day we reflect, adapt, and celebrate the moments of learning that happen naturally. For us, it’s about being present, responsive, and intentional in everything we do.

Child-led Learning

  • Engaging learning programs are child-led, inspired by the Reggio-Emilia philosophy and facilitated by a dedicated Curriculum Leader.
  • Our teams are made up of passionate, sector leading degree qualified teachers, with all Educators diploma-qualified or holding a Cert III.
  • Our unique curriculum is co-designed with families, experts and educators and builds upon the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) to balance literacy, numeracy, creativity, health and confidence.
  • Infants explore the world through their senses, forming strong bonds and discovering their environment through gentle, responsive play, often engaging in unoccupied play, observing and taking in their surroundings.
  • Toddlers begin to experiment and imagine, expressing themselves through movement, art, and simple role-play, while learning social skills and independence.
  • Preschoolers engage in collaborative and creative play, investigating ideas about nature, community, and sustainability, while developing problem-solving, communication, and critical thinking skills.

Inspiring Environments

At Nido, every day brings inspiring learning environments for your child to explore- from art in our ateliers and shared meals in our piazzas, to adventures in outdoor spaces with climbing areas, our Nido cars, water play, mature gardens and more. Indoors, children discover places for creativity, imaginative storytelling and quiet corners. Each environment is thoughtfully designed to spark curiosity, nurture imagination and build a connection to nature, helping children develop new skills and healthy habits for life.

Safety Every Day

At Nido, safety is part of every day. We follow national child-safe standards with strong leadership, rigorous recruitment, and ongoing training for everyone in our early schools. Our spaces are designed for clear supervision, and our policies are regularly reviewed to maintain the highest standards. Nothing matters more than creating safe and secure environments where children feel confident, and families place their full trust in our care.

Our Community

Community is at the heart of Nido. Every day, we nurture strong connections between families, educators, children and the wider community. Through inclusive events, regular updates and hands-on experiences – from community gardens to visits from special guests, every child feels confident, included and inspired to learn.

At Nido Swan View we are committed to building strong connections within our local community and actively seek opportunities to engage with local schools, cultural groups, and community programs.

Changes to the Child Care Subsidy

The 3 Day Guarantee. What does it mean for your family enrolling in 2026?

From 5 January 2026, the Australian Government is updating the Child Care Subsidy (CCS) to guarantee at least 3 days of subsidised early childhood education and care per week. This means that all CCS-eligible families will receive at least 72 hours per fortnight (3 days/week) of subsidised childcare regardless of their work, study, or volunteering status.

Since Nido Early School is a government approved childcare provider, if you are eligible for CCS you will be entitled to the new 3 Day Child Care Subsidy Guarantee on your fees.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land, waters, and skies where we work and live across Australia. We pay our respect to Elders past and present. We celebrate the stories, culture, and traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders of all communities, who work and live on this land.
