Indigo ELC isn’t “just childcare”—we are a movement towards sustainable, nature-connected early education.
Welcome to Indigo Early Learning Centre
At Indigo ELC, we believe childhood should be nothing short of joyful, empowering, and full of wonder. Our centres are alive with curiosity—spaces where children feel deeply valued, truly seen, and free to explore the world in their own unique way. From the magic of our certified Forest School to the confidence built in our in-house Swim School, every experience is designed to spark imagination, resilience, and a lifelong love of learning. With passion for sustainability, community, and child-led discovery, we are not just caring for children—we are nurturing the next generation of thinkers, dreamers, and changemakers.

Indigo Wild
Our excursion program, featuring a fully certified Australian Forest School (one of only a handful nation-wide). Indigo Wild days are full-day immersions where children venture into the community—visiting the library, exploring local parks, enjoying scooter days, or connecting with nature through bush days. Each experience fosters resilience, independence, and a deep connection to the world around them.

Soccer Mates
Delivered in partnership with Soccer Mates, this school readiness program supports children as they transition to primary school. By playing and learning alongside peers who will attend the same school, children build early friendships, confidence, and a strong sense of belonging before they even begin their school journey.

Creative Arts & Sustainability
From gardening and cooking to music, art, and cultural celebrations, children explore creativity while learning about care for themselves, others, and the planet.
Our Sustainable Practices
Caring for children goes hand in hand with caring for the planet. At Indigo ELC, sustainability is woven into our daily practice, inspiring children to become thoughtful custodians of the environment.
From our plant-based seasonal menu to hands-on gardening, composting, and recycling, children learn the value of healthy choices and respecting the earth. Our centres are powered by eco-conscious initiatives such as veggie gardens, community pantries and wardrobes, meat free menus and partnerships that reduce waste and promote reuse.
Through these practices, sustainability becomes more than a concept—it becomes a way of life. Children don’t just learn about protecting the environment; they experience it every day, growing into a generation of compassionate, environmentally aware citizens.
