About Treetop Early Learning:
Treetop Early Learning is a growing, collaborative community where educators are supported, valued and inspired. Our Ascot Vale centre opened over a year ago and has already welcomed many wonderful families. We’re continuing to grow while maintaining the warm, inclusive and connected environment that makes our service special. We believe children learn best when they are encouraged to be curious, creative and confident. Our play-based approach supports children to explore, discover, problem-solve and develop skills that will stay with them for life. Strong, respectful relationships with families are at the heart of our practice, and we believe great outcomes for children begin with a team that feels connected and supported.
