About Little Grommets
Who We Are
Little Grommets Early Learning Centre
At Little Grommets, we believe early childhood should be full of discovery, connection, and joy. Located in the heart of Tweed Heads, our purpose-built centre offers a safe, inspiring environment for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years to learn, grow and thrive.
Our passionate educators are the heart of our centre — many have been with us for years, forming strong, meaningful relationships with children and families alike. We’re more than just a childcare service — we’re a welcoming community where every child is known, every family is valued, and learning is driven by curiosity and care.
From our hands-on gardening to nature-based excursions, language classes and yoga, our programs are designed to nurture the whole child — socially, emotionally, physically and cognitively. And with healthy meals prepared daily by our in-house chef, nappies included, and a focus on school readiness, we make life easier for busy families too.
We’re proud to walk alongside parents and carers on this important journey — building confident, resilient children who feel safe, supported and ready for the world ahead.
Our Mission
At Little Grommets, our mission is to create a nurturing, inspiring space where every child feels safe, seen, and supported.
We’re here to spark curiosity, encourage independence, and build strong foundations for lifelong learning — all through play, connection, and meaningful experiences.
By partnering with families and valuing each child as an individual, we foster a community built on trust, empathy, and shared growth. Every day, we aim to make a difference — one little grommet at a time.
Our Vision
To be a place where every child feels like a superhero in their own story — confident, capable, and deeply cared for.
At Little Grommets, our vision is to create an early learning community that empowers children to explore the world with curiosity, compassion, and courage. We aim to inspire a lifelong love of learning, nurture emotional resilience, and support children in developing the values and skills they’ll carry with them well beyond the early years.
Together with families and educators, we’re shaping a future where every child can shine.
