As our longest-standing centre, Cuddles has been serving the Carlisle community in this very spot since 2009!
Renowned for our enormous main yard, we are a haven for nature play and home to what is quite possibly the largest natural playground of any childcare centre in Perth! Where swinging from real trees, playing in fallen leaves, riding bikes, building sandcastles, exploring the bus, discovering ladybugs, and feeding our chickens, form part of every single day!
With three additional outdoor play areas to discover – including a gymnasium, a toddlers retreat, and a Junior Yard for Toddlers and Babies (that is not so junior in size) – your little ones will never be bored.
When your child is not getting their hands dirty in our natural environments, they will be inside our cosy, home-like rooms full of love, a long-standing and experienced team, and high-quality resources.
We take pride in offering four generous-sized rooms tailored for the different age groups of Babies, Toddlers, Kindies and Schoolies. Each room is thoughtfully crafted to meet the unique needs of the children, creating a modern, safe and creative space for their exploration and play.
Delight in the fresh, delicious, and nutritious meals prepared by our in-house chef in our kitchen, fuelling your child’s body and mind for their daily adventures.
Within the walls of Cuddles Carlisle our team of devoted educators is committed to nurturing your child’s development, boosting their confidence, honing cognitive skills, fostering emotional intelligence, and much more. We are dedicated to being a guiding light for your little one at every turn.

What our Carlisle families think of us…
Meet our Childcare Manager at Cuddles Carlisle
Hi I’m Priya,
I am the Centre Manager here at Cuddles Early Learning in Carlisle.
With nearly 16 years of experience in early childhood education, I’ve had the privilege of supporting children through some of the most important and formative years of their lives. My journey with Cuddles began in 2011 right here at Carlisle, where I started as an Assistant Educator. Over the years, I’ve taken on various leadership roles, including Room Leader in both the Toddlers and Kindy rooms.
Currently, I’m furthering my professional development by studying towards a Bachelor of Education. This has given me new insights and strengthened my ability to lead with knowledge, empathy, and passion.
As a mum of two, I understand how important it is for families to feel confident and supported when leaving their children in care. At Cuddles, our team is committed to creating a warm, nurturing, and stimulating environment where every child can grow, learn, and thrive.
I look forward to welcoming you to our beautiful centre and sharing the wonderful learning journey that happens here every day.
Priya Rughoobur
Centre Manager

Our Toddlers also spend their days exploring the large Junior Yard, thoughtfully designed to extend learning beyond the classroom – supporting gross motor development, sensory exploration, and imaginative play in a natural setting. Inside, toddlers are rapidly developing their language, thinking, and social skills, and our programs are tailored to nurture this exciting stage. We introduce early cognitive concepts through hands-on activities, storytelling, songs, and play-based learning. Foundational phonics are gently woven into each day through letter sounds, name recognition, and interactive group time. Our educators guide toddlers in developing independence, confidence, and communication, while fostering a strong sense of belonging in a safe and stimulating environment.
