Delacombe Childcare
We combine development expertise and long-term investment vision to build a high-quality childcare portfolio. In collaboration with our self-owned brand, Eco Patch Early Learning, we are establishing a freehold chain model that prioritises sustainability, educational excellence, and community needs. Through Floruit, we actively acquire childcare development land and vacant campuses, transforming them into modern, purpose-built centres that we own and operate ourselves. Our strategy is centred on long-term asset holding, ensuring consistency, quality, and stability across our services while creating lasting value for families and communities.
At Eco Patch Child Care Centre, we believe children learn best through active engagement with the natural world. Our philosophy is rooted in sustainability, wellbeing, and holistic education—creating an environment where children feel connected, capable, and inspired to care for the planet and each other.
Our Playground to Plate® programs sit at the heart of our curriculum, immersing children in authentic experiences that celebrate the journey from seed to table. By planting, nurturing, harvesting, and preparing food, children gain lifelong appreciation for nature’s cycles, healthy eating, and the importance of community collaboration.
Science, literacy, numeracy, motor skill development, nutrition, and social-emotional growth are seamlessly integrated into garden and animal experiences. Children observe and investigate plant and animal life, measure growth, record observations, and work collaboratively with peers, educators, and families.
