A Place Where Belonging Begins
Nestled in nature and built on connection, Hidden Valley Early Learning is more than just a childcare centre – it’s a warm and welcoming space where children feel safe, seen, and supported every step of the way.
About our service.
Hidden Valley Early Learning is conveniently located in the heart of Edens Landing. The Centre is nestled in the beautiful Edens parklands where our natural outdoor environment is an extension to our six beautiful rooms.
Hidden Valley Early Learning offers a friendly and homely childcare centre, focusing on family values, individual children’s learning and growth, and high quality care in early education.
Our centre has its own unique personality, giving families the opportunity to choose one that aligns with them and their needs.

My Personal Philosophy – Kylie Pick
As an early childhood professional and Centre Director, I believe in creating a space where children feel safe, seen, loved, and inspired to explore the world around them. For me, a childcare centre should feel like an extension of home, a place where families are welcomed with open arms, and every child is valued for who they are.
I’m passionate about play-based learning and believe deeply in the power of curiosity, creativity, and connection. I love seeing children light up when they discover something new, whether it’s through sensory play, storytelling, nature walks, or moments of shared laughter with peers. Every child brings their own story, and it’s our role to listen, support, and guide them with kindness and intention.
Relationships are at the heart of everything I do with children, families, and our incredible team. I strive to lead with transparency, warmth, and consistency, and I’m committed to building strong partnerships with families built on trust, respect, and shared goals. I truly believe that when families and educators work together, amazing things happen.
I value inclusion and am passionate about creating a space where everyone feels they belong, no matter their background, culture, or ability. Every child and family should feel respected, represented, and celebrated within our service. We aim to ensure that diversity is reflected in our environments, resources, celebrations, and everyday practice.
Connecting with our local community is also something I hold close to my heart, from engaging in local events and inviting community members into our space, to embedding cultural understanding and reconciliation into our daily rhythm. I believe these connections give children a deeper sense of identity, belonging, and pride in where they come from.
Sustainability, cultural awareness, and meaningful learning experiences are also key drivers in our practice. I’m always reflecting, growing, and learning both as a leader and as a person, and I bring that same mindset into our service culture.
My vision is for Hidden Valley Early Learning to be a place where every child is educated, loved, included, and empowered, where our team feels proud and supported, and where families and community feel they truly belong.
