We are Now Open !
Located in the heart of Tweed Heads, Little Grommets offers high-quality long day care and a preschool program for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years in a safe, nurturing, and adventure-filled environment.
From splashing in our water park and riding bike tracks to exploring the local area on nature walks, every day sparks curiosity and builds confidence.
Our loyal, long-standing educators are passionate about helping children thrive. We provide nutritious, chef-prepared meals daily – and yes, nappies are included.
With a strong school readiness focus, our preschool program is praised by local schools for preparing children for a confident transition to big school.
