Having recently moved to the Peninsula from the city, we were nervous about changing childcare and visited a few different centres but as soon as we met the Little Grasshoppers team and saw the facilities we loved it! Wonderful team of educators and staff and such a great environment for the kids. Recommend highly!

Trust Our Experience
Over 35 years of experience you can trust.
At Little Grasshoppers, our centres are designed by the people who care for children every day. Our educators understand what works, what doesn’t, and how thoughtful design can support calm routines, meaningful learning and genuine connection.
This experience has shaped every detail of our Mount Eliza centre, creating a purpose-built environment that supports both children and educators to thrive.
We are proud to offer a space where children feel safe, supported and confident as they learn and grow each day.
From the very beginning, he has walked straight into the centre loving it, which instantly put my mind at ease. The play areas are absolutely incredible and so thoughtfully set up, giving the children so many opportunities to explore, learn and have fun.
The staff have all been so amazing kind, patient and genuinely caring and they made the transition incredibly easy, not just for my toddler but for me as well. Seeing how happy and settled he is has been so reassuring.
We couldn’t recommend Little Grasshoppers highly enough.
They take the time to get to know each child and have a few great tricks to help with a difficult drop off. We love that they move the children through the different (beautiful!) spaces during the day, whether it be to the dining room for lunch, or a different room/yard to play. We feel so lucky that after experiencing many different daycares and kinders through the years and various suburbs, that we’ve landed this one for our third child. Thanks guys!
