Continuity of educators is central to how we run. Children settle faster with people they know, and parents have time to talk with the educators caring for their child.
Two weeks free for new Mount Hawthorn families.

New families only. Conditions apply, ask us on your tour.
What is the best childcare near Mount Hawthorn?
It depends on what matters most to your family. Mount Hawthorn is to our north east, past Lake Monger and Glendalough. Families from Mount Hawthorn choose Poppy Patch Early Learning for its small, owner run feel (room for 50 children), nurse founders on site, meals cooked by our own cook, care from 3 months with a School Readiness Program, and clear fees from $175 a day before CCS. Book a tour to see if it suits your child.
Do you offer before and after school care for Mount Hawthorn schools?
Our before and after school care is for Wembley Primary School only, as we walk children to and from school, but our vacation care is open to children from other local schools.
Who runs Poppy Patch?
Owners Debra Gibson and Natasha Carolan, both nurses, who are directly involved in the centre.
Do you provide meals?
Yes, healthy, balanced meals and snacks from our dedicated cook.
