In the inviting outdoor learning environment, children can explore independently or develop their social skills through a range of planned learning experiences and problem-solving challenges.   

Our sector leading educators teach from a balanced program of carefully planned play-based learning with time for child-led learning to help children improve their self-confidence, coordination and teamwork skills in a fun setting where they feel comfortable and supported.  

Children up to age three participate in the bespoke Evolution Program, while those between three and five join the Transition to School Program

CENTRE MANAGER
Tyla Ferguson

Tyla has worked in the Early Childhood sector for over 7 years and is now the centre manager at Young Academics Schofields. She is committed to the growth and development of children through learning. Tyla prioritises understanding the needs and interests of children in her care and fostering a family-friendly community, making her an asset to our team.

“I have been working in the Early Childhood sector for over 7 years, and it has been a fantastic journey.

My motivation for getting into the early childhood sector is my passion for being around young children. They make me happy, and I want to be a part of their growth and development and know that I have positively impacted them in some way.

Young Academics provides support and ongoing growth opportunities that are available to staff. I am grateful to have started as a room leader and quickly became an educational leader, assistant centre manager, and now the centre manager.

What I love the most about working in the Schofields community is its family-friendly feeling and the willingness everyone shows to help each other out.

I bring passion, commitment, and dedication to my centre and the children in my care. I always strive to better my practices and support the children to achieve their milestones and goals, which is why our centre is loved by its children, families, and educators.

Here at Schofields, we make it our job to understand the interests, wants and needs of children and show that dedication within the rooms. We also focus on supporting each other as a community so families and children are comfortable and gain a sense of security within our service.”

I can't recommend YA schofields, Alex Ave highly enough for anyone looking for an early learning centre for their child. It became a home away from home for my two kids due to the caring and vibrate nature of the educators in every room. The growth I have seen in my two kids (both socially and academically) has been nothing short of amazing. Thankyou YA Schofields staff and keep up the great work!

Cannot recommend this quality childcare centre enough. After starting my first born the year it opened to now my 3rd baby has almost finished her first year in the babies room I have already recommended to friends and we’re lucky enough to get a spot and 100% agree. The educators are the best of the best ! The genuine and outstanding communication, care and passion they have is priceless when talking about care for your babies!!! They are like family and cannot thank them enough :)

Children learn everyday new things, offer long day care. Children develop social skills in a caring environment. Staff are attentive and supportive to the children. I highly recommend for the age 0 to 6 years.

I was patiently waiting for nearly one and half years to put my little man to Ready2 Learn Daycare centre in Schofields because I have heard positive reviews about this centre from mums in my local community. I take this opportunity to drop a few words from my personal experience, out of my busy schedule because I truly believe the teachers and staff at the centre deserve this recognition for their commitment, dedication and hard work they put through every day to look after our kids.I have visited more than 10 daycare centres near my area looking for the best centre with services and facilitates and no centre could benchmark to the standard delivered by Ready2Learn. What I like most is the love and care given by these wonderful teachers at the centre on top of the quality of standards they maintain. I always feel that they really enjoy what they do more than doing a job. I must thank all the teachers at the baby room ( Linda, Jane , Maheshi and two more teachers whom I cannot remember their names ) who provide an excellent care for my little one while I am at work. Every morning when I walk into the room to drop him, we are all welcomed with a beautiful smile on their faces even it could be very stressful for them with so many unsettled babies around. I am confident that all mums in other age groups have very similar experiences because I do observe that other teachers also enjoy the time with bigger kids.The newly appointed Education Director ( Amy) is an excellent team leader. Every mum talks about her positive and helpful attitude and she is being highly recognised by many mums who bring their kids to the Centre from ‘’The avenue community’’. Keep up the good job !!!My message to any mum who is searching for the best childcare centre in Town, this is the place for it!RegardsAkain's mum
