The SOEL Difference
Focus on social-emotional skills.
“My children feel supported, treasure their relationships with their teachers, and come home with new knowledge about the environment, sustainability, and themselves every day.”
– Nelly Amenyogbe
State-of-the-art learning facilities.
“Everyday at SOEL I am wowed by the experiences my children are engaged in.
Their opportunities are endless and they are learning so much.
I know each day my children are loved, safe and cared for just like they are at home.”
– Sharon Gomez
Chef-prepared, seasonal menu.
“We could barely get her on solids at home. After 1 week she was demanding more food at dinnertime.
Her language has exploded, her interaction with people is on a whole new level.
The security is top notch, the food prepared fresh every day. She eats better than I do.”
– Max Lake

Our Early Learning Programmes
SOEL’s innovative early learning and childcare programmes are thoughtfully designed to nurture the developmental needs of each age group.
Babies
In our baby rooms, we create warm and nurturing environments. We follow each child’s routine, offering individual and group learning opportunities that align with their sleeping, nappy changes, and meal times.
Toddlers
At SOEL, our toddler childcare programme provides a calm and nurturing early learning environment where children are encouraged to explore and play, empowering children to make choices and learn at their own pace.
3-Yr-Old Kindy
Our 3-Year-Old Kindy Programme focuses on comprehensive discovery through a thoughtful pace that encourages children to engage in the inquiry process: planning, researching, hypothesising, questioning, experimenting, and reflecting.
4-Yr-Old Kindy
Our 4-Year-Old Kindy Programme continues to enhance children’s academic skills, including language, literacy, numeracy, and science. They also mentor younger peers in their SOEL community, fostering empathy that supports social and emotional development.
Holistic Family Support
We partner with you for your whole early childhood parenting journey, offering workshops led by our in-house Pedagogy & Training team, events that showcase your child’s unique learning and curated educational resources for parents.
