Felice means ‘happy’ in Italian. Our Felice Room offers an exciting environment for our children the year before they venture to the older pre-kindergarten room. Normally children are between the ages of 3 years – 4 years in this room, however each year the range of ages may be different due to the ages of the cohort in that particular year.

We love encouraging children to expand the boundaries of their world one skip, hop, jump at a time.

Our dedicated team provides all the care and support your child needs for the best start to life. We are committed to creating an engaging environment for your child to explore and investigate new experiences. Trial and error make learning fun, and we’ll be with them every step of the way.

Engaging your child through play

The children in the Felice Room are vastly interested in new friendships, new vocabulary and longer sentences, emotional development and new physical skills. They are curious about science and grasping more about how things work, gardens and the natural environment and getting in there with their hands; e.g. looking after their vegie garden and feeding the worms in our Worm Café. Children also start to understand routines, take on increasing responsibilities for their actions and start to build positive social skills such as empathy and fairness.

At Bambini of Lilyfield, all meals, nappies, sheets and hats are provided.

Play is how they learn

We know exactly how much fun play can be. We put play into everything!

We foster your child’s development through play-based learning. Our educators create a supportive environment that invites active engagement with open ended materials so your child can discover their world safely and independently.

Adding rest to recharge your child’s love for learning

While playing can be so much fun, your child still needs time to rest. Sleep and relaxation are an important part of their everyday routine.

Our educators are guided and trained to ensure your child is getting their best sleep in a safe and nurturing environment.

Inspiring your child’s mind

For over 14 years, Bambini of Lilyfield has set the foundation for enduring curiosity, lasting self-confidence and lifelong learning.

Our greatest passion is to inspire young minds and equip children with excellent academic, developmental and social skills. We tailor our programs to build resilience and adaptability for each child.

Our Bambini Curriculum implements the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) into our programs which strives to support your child’s language and cognitive, physical, social, emotional and creative development.

Learning beyond the classroom

Learning is beyond the classroom walls. Children are active participants in constructing their own knowledge, which will help them to become independent thinkers and confident leaders during preschool.

Ready for their own success

Our educators identify your child’s interests, strengths and challenges to set the foundation of their preschool early learning. We create a holistic and tailored preschool program that sets them up for success.

Whether your child is passionate about the arts, playing sports or reading stories, we strive to feed their love of learning and help them to become courageous and resilient role models.

Building resilient leaders of tomorrow

We are committed to building leaders of tomorrow. To do this, we equip your child with self-help skills, including learning how to follow instructions, listen to others and recognise emotions. From the moment they start at Bambini of Lilyfield, your child will learn how to navigate new challenges and adapt to different situations.

We feed their curiosity and help them to become creative, articulate and independent citizens of tomorrow.
