Childcare Centre Highlights

Aspire Ramlegh offer regular incursion programs that provide fun and engaging learning experiences for the children, including a sports and movement program, which supports the children’s physical and social abilities.

The centre also offers one-off incursion programs throughout the term. Some recent standouts include:

  • Myuna Farm incursion
  • Mini Monsters sports incursion

Aspire childcare centres also offer engaging and exciting excursions for the children throughout the year. Aspire Ramlegh run regular excursions to the local park that is within walking distance for all their age groups. The kinder children also enjoy regular excursions to Ramlegh Park Primary, which supports their school readiness program. These excursions further bolster the learning of students in every age group, and the interests of the children.

Aspire Early Education and Kindergarten centres provide nutritious daily meals to each child. Meals adhere to the Nutrition Australia Dietary Guidelines, ensuring that each child, regardless of dietary requirements, receives delicious meals each day. Aspire’s amazing chefs also love to create special moments for our children and staff, making birthday cakes or delicious spreads of food to celebrate special occasions.

Childcare Centre Facilities

Our purpose-built facility sets the benchmark for early learning centres and caters to children aged 6 weeks to 6 years. Our centre’s unique design features high ceilings and glass windows around the entirety, giving it a very open and modern feel.  The eight learning spaces also have design features fit for each age group. These rooms foster a tailored curriculum throughout all stages of learning.

Within our eight well-equipped indoor rooms, children participate in a range of daily activities including arts and craft, music, sports, reading and more. We have a beautiful, architecturally designed outdoor space that connects seamlessly with our indoor rooms. This makes it easy for children to move between the indoor and outdoor spaces, supporting a holistic learning experience for the children.

The spacious outdoor yard features a playground with different areas for each age group. Children are free to explore the outdoor environments including sand pits, veggie gardens, rock climbing features, and more. Additionally, our programs actively promote the message of environmental consciousness and sustainability.

Anjie Budloo

Centre Manager

I have been working in Early Childhood Education since 2015 and have had the opportunity to grow my career through a variety of leadership roles. My journey began as an Assistant Educator before progressing to Room Leader, Assistant Centre Manager, Centre Manager, and Area Manager. Today, I am proud to be the Centre Manager at Aspire Ramlegh.

I hold a Diploma in Early Childhood Education, along with qualifications in Digital Marketing and Journalism. These experiences have helped shape my approach to leadership, communication, and building strong relationships within our centre community.

Aspire’s values of Learn, Connect, and Grow strongly resonate with me, as I believe continuous learning, meaningful relationships, and shared growth are essential for both personal and professional success.

As a leader, I am approachable, direct, and value open, face-to-face communication. I believe strong relationships, honest conversations, and teamwork are key to creating a supportive environment for educators, children, and families.

I am passionate about creating inspiring learning environments, developing strong leaders, ensuring children’s voices are heard, and building meaningful connections with families and the wider community. I genuinely enjoy working with people, collaborating with teams, and supporting others to grow and succeed. Creating a strong sense of belonging and community is something I value deeply and strive to foster every day.

Shamila Sinnathamby

Head of Curriculum
Hi, I’m Shamila, and I’m the Head of Curriculum! I love working at Aspire because of the genuine sense of community, the focus on innovation and the strong belief in the power of early learning. The Aspire value that resonates with me most is Inspiring & Nurturing. I’m always looking for ways to reflect, grow, and uplift those around me. This value mirrors my approach to education, where I always strive for excellence and bring out the best in every child and educator. I began my journey in early childhood education in 2014 and have worked as a Lead Educator, Educational Leader, and Assistant Centre Manager. I spent five years at Aspire Berwick Waters, where I was part of the leadership team that achieved an Exceeding rating. I’m currently working towards my Bachelor of Education and love learning new ideas to share with my team. As a leader, I believe in empathy, teamwork and intention, and I aim to create an environment that is inclusive, inspiring and responsive to each child’s interests and developmental needs. I’m passionate about designing environments that spark curiosity and creativity, and about mentoring educators to help them grow. Outside of work, I’m a proud mum and speak English, Sinhalese and understand Tamil and Malaysian. I’m proud to be part of the vibrant Ramlegh community.

Hear from parents who’ve experienced the care, quality
and connection that make Aspire different.

Your child’s safety is our first priority

We know handing your child over to someone else is one of the hardest things a parent does. Here’s exactly how we keep them safe.

Secure entry and exit

Only authorised people can drop off or collect your child. Our centres use controlled access points and require photo ID verification for anyone not on your authorised pickup list.

Verified and qualified educators

Every educator holds a current Working With Children Check. Our teams include diploma and degree-qualified staff, with qualified teacher ratios that exceed national requirements.

Stay connected throughout the day

Through the StoryPark app, you receive photos, observations and daily updates directly from your child's room. You can message educators and see what your child has been up to, any time.

Built to national Child Safe Standards

Aspire operates under the National Child Safe Standards across every centre. Our policies, spaces and staffing are designed with visibility and supervision at the centre of everything.

Early education programs

Aspire Early Education and Kindergarten operates in a long daycare setting and has four main education programs, tailored to each stage of early development.

Nursery

Ages 6 weeks - 2 years

The first 2 years of life is a time for rapid growth and development, where children are building the foundation for their future learning. Our Baby Steps Nursery program provides a nurturing environment, with daily activities and intentional teaching to support your child reaching developmental milestones and transition into our toddler program. Our play-based learning approach allows children to learn through sensory play while stimulating their senses of touch, smell, taste, hearing, and sight. Our Nursery Hubs are specifically designed to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere for your baby to commence their learning journey and support emotional and social development in this phase of life. Aspire’s nursery teams are highly qualified, with up-to-date knowledge of early childhood development, specialising in infant care.

Toddlers program

Toddlers

Ages 2 - 3 years

Toddlerhood is an incredible time of exploration and discovery. During this time, children are asserting their independence and gaining an increasing sense of self. Our Little Learners Toddler Programs are designed to create an engaging environment that continues to support your toddler’s social and cognitive development from our nursey program. We provide a fun, play-based learning approach that engages their young and active minds within a safe and stimulating environment. Our Little Learners curriculum supports children to increase their sense of self and reach developmental milestones.

Kindergarten and pre-school program

Kindergarten & Pre-School

Ages 3 - 6 years

At Aspire, school readiness means more than just being able to hold a pencil or recognise letters. Through our tailored kindergarten and pre-school programs, we help children grow into confident, curious learners who are ready to thrive in the next stage of their journey. Guided by the National Early Years Learning Framework, our educators focus on building essential skills in literacy, numeracy, problem-solving, and emotional regulation — the real foundations of lifelong learning. Whether your child is enrolled in 3 or 4 year old  Kindergarten & Pre-school or a long daycare kindergarten, we work closely with families through regular updates and milestones to ensure every child is supported in becoming school-ready — socially, emotionally, and academically.
