The new Nido Early Learning Centre at Seven Hills delivers a high‑quality early learning environment that strengthens local families and enriches the wider community. Designed to support children from six weeks to school age, the centre provides warm, nurturing spaces that reflect Nido’s philosophy, giving families access to thoughtful, nature‑inspired learning experiences within their own neighbourhood.
Constructed within the constraints of an active shopping centre car park, the project required careful management of tight logistics, live environment safety and public interface. Works included demolition of an existing building, with noise, dust and access impacts mitigated through staged sequencing and disciplined controls. A stormwater diversion system was implemented to maintain operational continuity of neighbouring properties.

Design highlights include large windows and glass railings to maximise natural light, a rooftop play area to expand outdoor space and custom‑made playgrounds shaped around Nido’s nature‑as‑teacher approach. The white brick façade with mint accents reflects Nido’s brand identity, complemented by privacy panels around the rooftop for security.
The full scope comprised classrooms, a commercial kitchen and laundry, offices, staff amenities, indoor and outdoor play areas, decking, pergola, sandpit and tailored landscaping across two-storeys connected by a lift. The completed centre provides long‑term community value through enriched early learning, improved family support and a welcoming environment that fosters growth and connection.
