Welcome to Dewdrops Early Learning Reservoir
Our Reservoir centre operates from a beautiful bespoke house offering an environment of homeliness and warmth for our children and families.
Nurturing a sense of belonging for you and your child
The centre is located on Delaware Street, a residential street off the main arterial to the outer northern suburbs. High Street offers public transport to the bustling local shopping strip and the iconic Preston Market. The Epping train line provides ease of access to Melbourne and surrounding suburbs, allowing parents to park and ride into work. The centre is located just a short walk from the Reservoir train station.
Our Reservoir Centre was the first of our Dewdrops family in January 2007. We have built a strong reputation in the northern suburbs of Melbourne for its unique family-centred environment and a personalised high level of care for our children.
A Welcoming and Inclusive Environment
Designed to be a home away from home, our centre offers spaces where children can feel safe and supported to play, learn, and grow.
Advanced Learning
Opportunities
We open up a world of knowledge through our ELLA Greek language program, our kitchen garden, cooking experiences, and diverse incursions and excursions.
Fresh & Healthy
Meals
Our on-site cook prepares delicious meals and snacks daily. Children also share in the process of growing and harvesting ingredients through our kitchen garden program.
Session Times and
Days
Our long day care centre and kindergarten programs operate from Monday to Friday 7am – 6pm throughout the year (excluding public holidays) giving your family flexibility and choice.
CONNECTION & COMMUNITY IS OUR FOUNDATION
Why Choose Us?
At Dewdrops we believe that children thrive through connection with others and by being part of a community. When children feel connected, safe and secure, and have a strong sense of belonging, they flourish in their learning and growth.
This philosophy underpins everything we do at Dewdrops, not only for our children, but for our team and our families.
What our Families Say...
Nothing makes us happier than hearing about the positive experiences of our Dewdrops families.
Dewdrops is such a lovely day care centre. We’ve had our son in Dewdrops for a year now after taking him out of another centre. Dewdrops is everything that you want in a centre – staff are warm and caring, the programs are interactive and look like lots of fun and most of all our son loves it there. Really, really happy to be part of the Dewdrops community.
The educators and wider team at Dewdrops are amazing. Our son started daycare at 6 months and Dewdrops made the transition so easy. The educators genuinely care and provide such great support to his needs and development. He loves his educators and they offer such a great range of activities and events throughout the year as well as plenty of outdoor play. Thank you to the team at Dewdrops.
We have had two children at Dewdrops since before they were one, and we could not be any happier with the care, education and experiences they have received. Our kids love going in each day, and they have absolutely thrived in every way. We would definitely recommend Dewdrops to anyone considering early education for their children.
Dewdrops Early Learning is a great little centre. My little one goes to the Moreland location and really enjoys it. All the educators are lovely and they have a dedicated cook who makes good quality meals and snacks for the bubs. They maintain a good educator to child ratio and are very supportive and communicative about the development of the bubs and children.
My son has attended dewdrops since he was nine months, he is now a thriving, playful & confident toddler and I’m so grateful for our second home at Dew Drops! The team are amazing, they take the time to get to know all the kids and nurture their individuality and help to encourage connections with their peers and carers.
Dewdrops moreland is such a friendly little family. My son has been going since he was a baby and now he is a big kinder and the education and care is second to none. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for quality childcare with people who care.
Your Questions, Answered!
Our centre is a long day care with integrated three and four-year-old funded kindergarten programs.
We accept children from 6 months of age.
The great news is we provide everything your child will need throughout their day, so there is no need for you to pack lunches or drink bottles!
We love messy play and encourage families to pack a change of clothes, as well as a sunhat for warmer months and suitable clothing for cooler weather.
Our permanent educators include degree qualified Early Childhood Teachers (Kinder Teachers) and diploma qualified Educators, who work collaboratively to develop and deliver a rich and exciting kindergarten program for our children.
At Dewdrops we run an indoor/outdoor program throughout the year, which means the “classroom” extends from inside to outside whenever possible. Everyday activities like art and craft, group time, story time or meals are encouraged both indoors and outdoors.
It’s never too early to get in touch and enquire about a position for your child, and if a position is available your child can start immediately. Alternatively, your child will be placed on our waitlist until a position becomes available.
