Early Childhood Experiences

Give Your Child A Head Start At A Happy And Well-Rounded Life

Your child’s development isn’t just determined by their genes. While this plays a role, decades of neuroscience and behavioural research have shown the important role early childhood experiences play in the learning, growth and health that follow.

At MindChamps, our childcare, early learning and preschool programs are backed by two decades of research to nurture and care for children 0-6 years old. Our unique approach to early development will help your child get off to the best possible start – and provide a launching pad for them to enjoy a happy, well-rounded and successful life.

Your Little One Will Grow A Sense Of Curiosity During The Vital Early Years Of Development

When your child is born, their brain – the command centre for their whole body – is only a quarter of the size of a fully-grown adult. During the first few years of their life it will grow rapidly. By the time they turn 5, their brain will be 90% developed! That’s why their early years are so vital!

At MindChamps, we’ve created the perfect environment and curriculum to nurture all aspects of your little one’s development. They’ll grow a keen, eager mind and a love of learning that sets them up for the rest of their lives.
