Preschool

“A child's mind is not a container to be filled but rather a fire to be kindled.”

~ Dorothea Brande

School readiness, independence & social skills

Our Adelaide child care Preschool program is developed with the understanding that your child learns best through play as this is how their brain develops; through discovery and imagination. Through play, children experience and explore the world around them whilst our Early Childhood Teachers and Educators encourage their independence, curiosity, wonder and the confidence to be successful lifelong learners.

Here’s what a day looks like!

The focus for Preschool children is school readiness, with structured experiences and learning programs beginning to prepare them for the future school day routine. A day as an Emali Preschooler is about setting up strong foundations and confidence to continue life-long learning.

Hear from our wonderful families.

“Emali is a parent and child-friendly centre with well-maintained facilities and a welcoming atmosphere. The educators are knowledgeable, caring, and take the time to connect with each child individually. I especially appreciate the timely updates through the app, which help us stay informed and reassured throughout the day. My 1-year-old daughter is really enjoying her time there, and we’re grateful for the wonderful care she receives. Thank you, Emali!”

Chloe K, Emali Prospect Parent
We have been sending both of our girls to Emali since they were just 8 months old, and we couldn't be happier with the care they receive. All of the educators here are truly exceptional. They know our girls so well and always go above and beyond to make sure they are happy and thriving. Also, the food provided is top-notch, and the timings are perfect for the kids. We trust them completely with our girls' care, and it gives us peace of mind knowing they are in such good hands. I highly recommend Emali to any parents looking for a nurturing and supportive environment for their little ones.
Subodh K, Emali Brighton Parent
My child has been attending Emali Salisbury for 2 years now. During this time they have grown in to a confident, happy and well rounded little person. The team at Emali genuinely care about each child as an individual and it really feels like an extension of our family. The excitement my child shows when we arrive for the day makes me so happy and allows me to feel confident leaving them in their care. I highly recommend this centre for anyone looking for care for their little family members.
