Welcome to Pachamama

Pachamama offers a truly distinctive approach to early education and childcare.  Nestled in the picturesque Perth Hills of Western Australia, Pachamama is more than just a childcare centre; its a nurturing home-away-from-home that places a strong emphasis on nature, creativity, and embracing diversity.

Diversity is not merely a requirement at Pachamama, it is an integral part of our ethos.  Our team of highly experienced Educators mirror the rich tapestry of cultures found within the United Nations.  Our cross-cultural environments, diverse teams, and multifaceted learning experiences are seamlessly woven into the fabric of daily life at Pachamama.  Children embark on a journey to acquire essential life skills and cultivate trusting relationships with both peers and Educators.  It’s a place where children can connect with nature, with one another, and with their inner selves.  

Pachamama serves as a nurturing ground for all children to expand their horizons and explore their interests.

But what does ‘Pachamama’ mean?  The name finds its roots in the ancient Incan civilisation, where Pachamama was (and still is today) revered as a goddess symbolising fertility and abundance, a creative force that sustains life on earth.  Pachamama, often synonymous with Mother Earth, translates more literally to ‘World Mother.’  It’s a term that the first Spanish colonists interpreted as ‘mama’ (mother) and ‘pacha’ (world or land, later expanding to encompass the cosmos or the universe.  Pachamama embodies benevolence and generosity, representing nature itself.  In the wake of Spain’s conquest in the 16th century and the forces conversion to Roman Catholicism, many indigenous people merged the concept of Pachamama with the Virgin Mary.

At Pachamama, we strive to embody the warmth and love shared between a mother and her child in our daily interactions with our Pachamama children.  Our mission is to support families in the monumental task of raising children.  We encourage all families to acquaint themselves with our exceptional Educators and immerse themselves in our splendid environment, creating a harmonious partnership in nurturing the next generation.

As a previous Oshc centre manager I am very impressed with the education and care that has been provided to my two girls in yr 3 and 5. The facilities are clearly very impressive but what matters to me is that my girls are well looked after, they are seen and heard. Can’t ask for more. The ASC staff in both Senior and Junior section are wonderful.

Big thanks to the staff in Pachamama’s Nursery Room for the care, attention and understanding they show to our precious little girl, and all the children under their care. Little Darcy had a rough patch adjusting to the transition from the infants room but with patience and reassurance, she is back to a happy little girl, busily exploring the world. There is nothing better than picking her up at the end of the day and seeing a smile on her face and a happy wave goodbye to the educators. Thank you Viv, Billie, Zoe and Beth, we appreciate all that you do!

Both my boys love going to Pachamama, they always have big smiles when arriving and leaving and they always sleep very well at night, having had a full day of fun and adventure!🙌🏻😉 Brock always looks for Chaytor’s car when we arrive, checking that one of his favourite educators will be there and always asks about Katie and Karen too, who aren’t far behind and also much loved. Darcy is lucky to have Jess on his fairly new daycare journey, as he loves the songs and activities and I love the amazing art and crafts he brings home, giving us precious memories.

After viewing this pictures you suddenly realise how patronising some other bog standard childcare and education centres are. This gives so much scope for imagination and creativity. This has so much opportunity for awe and wonder. It has to make us question the concepts we impose on children in our country, who are we doing this for? Of all the places I have visited and studied over the years, this has to be my favourite hands down.

I love my job! I absolutely love being with the kids - sitting with them, listening to them, watching them do the cutest things and most of all showing them love and letting them know how precious they are, and helping them learn and develop in every way. I love working with warm, collaborative, friendly and helpful staff which make you feel like a part of a family. I also love being among nature and playing with the kids outdoors. I love just about every part of my job, even the challenging times because they teach you more patience, understanding, strategies and experiences. The children are an absolute delight to be with, and I really enjoy nurturing them. It gives my life great purpose and happiness. I have worked at Pachamama consistently for nearly 6 years now and worked in every room and have seen so many of the children grow up through to kindy age, and it's so good to be a part of that and seeing them develop. I can't imagine working at any better place. I really feel so blessed and happy to be taking care of the children at Pachamama. Living in the local area, I see some of the children and their families while I'm out and about, and it's such a thrill when they wave to you so happily. I look forward to working with the children and their families, and my co-workers everyday at Pachamama. �����

I can't recommend Pachamama enough. The educators really have made all the difference to our kids and the kids absolutely love them, and love going to daycare. The Pachamama environment is second to none - it really facilitates learning and community, and kids just getting the chance to be kids! If only there were more education and childcare facilities like this! Well done to the Pachamama team

After viewing this pictures you suddenly realise how patronising some other bog standard childcare and education centres are. This gives so much scope for imagination and creativity. This has so much opportunity for awe and wonder. It has to make us question the concepts we impose on children in our country, who are we doing this for? Of all the places I have visited and studied over the years, this has to be my favourite hands down.

Pachamama is a home away from home. From the moment you arrive you are in awe of the beautiful and thought out play spaces. You walk in and wish you could stay all day. My daughter is thriving since starting at Pachamama. The relationships she has built with the amazing and dedicated educators makes it easier to walk out the room. Managenent are approachable and understanding, going above and beyond to help with any queries, concerns and giving reassurance when needed. Thank you Pachamama 😀

Pachamama provide an outstanding service on every level. They have cared for and educated all three of our children. They have a beautiful philosophy, which centers around the importance of nature and the environment in early childhood development. I can’t speak highly enough of the Centre, staff and environment. Our children are truly nurtured and cared for.

All of the staff ( administrative and educational ) at Pachamama are exceptional. Everyone we have had contact with have been super friendly and more than helpful in getting our youngest settled into the Pachamama program. We wouldn't send our youngest anywhere else - the early childhood educators are fantastic, and the facilities are so beautiful and creative. You can see that so much care and thought has been put into creating the Pachamama experience. Our daughter loves it, and so do we!

Excelente el trabajo pedagógico desde estos escenarios, el disfrute, amor, color, todo hace que desde lo visual como espectador te sientas, vivas esos momentos con la naturaleza muy gratificantes y puedas decir que hay otros espacios para el aprendizaje que pasan a ser muy significativos para los niños y para los adultos también.

I’ve had the pleasure of visiting Pachamama four times in the last five years! I have been amazed at the improvements added under new ownership, particularly the natural environment that the children enjoy and learn from. They seem to be so comfortable and happy there! Also, the staff and facilities that have been added to accommodate the growth! They are first class!

I have the pleasure of running the kindy program with an amazing team at this wonderful centre. Pachamama is an amazing nature based early learning centre that is soley designed and based around childrens needs in their early years of development. In 14 years experience in early childhood education I have seen alot of changes and ideas come into play around the needs of early childhood education. I can honestly say Pachamama has hit the nail on the head and provides high quality rich education and care in all aspects. I am proud to be apart of such a wonderful team and I am looking forward to educating the young amazing minds that come through my door.

My grandchildren both attend Pachamama, it’s a wonderful, homely safe environment, any parent dropping off their child can head off to work feeling they have chosen the perfect place for their child/children to spend their day. My granddaughter has to be teased away from after school care because she loves it so much..the staff are awesome, they are totally dedicated to the happiness and safety of the children, every parents dream. Lesmurdie and surrounding areas are so lucky to have Pachamama, I know our family feel blessed.!

I love my job! I absolutely love being with the kids - sitting with them, listening to them, watching them do the cutest things and most of all showing them love and letting them know how precious they are, and helping them learn and develop in every way. I love working with warm, collaborative, friendly and helpful staff which make you feel like a part of a family. I also love being among nature and playing with the kids outdoors. I love just about every part of my job, even the challenging times because they teach you more patience, understanding, strategies and experiences. The children are an absolute delight to be with, and I really enjoy nurturing them. It gives my life great purpose and happiness. I have worked at Pachamama consistently for nearly 6 years now and worked in every room and have seen so many of the children grow up through to kindy age, and it's so good to be a part of that and seeing them develop. I can't imagine working at any better place. I really feel so blessed and happy to be taking care of the children at Pachamama. Living in the local area, I see some of the children and their families while I'm out and about, and it's such a thrill when they wave to you so happily. I look forward to working with the children and their families, and my co-workers everyday at Pachamama. �����

Wow went to this phenomenal centre for there open evening. This place is so amazing and is above and beyond any other Childcare I have ever seen. ( and I have been in childcare for over 20 years) I was absolutely astounded by the exceptional facilities. This centre is really something special. It's so obvious that the staff and the owners go above and beyond to provide there families with the very best of educational experiences. As I walked around I chatted with a lot of the staff and they were so approachable and so nice, and I felt like they really are so proud of there centre And that they really love what they do. I also spoke to the owner of the centre, she was also so lovely and so knowledgable and I really felt she was so passionate about the centre and I could see she goes above and beyond the provide the families with an phenomenal service. If you are looking for childcare in the Lesmurdie area I would definitely consider Pachamumma. There isn't any other daycare in Perth that has what these guys offer. This would be by far the most exceptional daycare in Perth. �

We all know how important it is for children (and staff, too !) to be stimulated and challenged in a positive way in a loving environment... The management of Pachamama is truly committed to this mantra. I highly recommend you all to visit this community and see for yourselves - and feel the heart warming atmosphere of this amazing place.

Pachamama is a gorgeous environment that's perfect for young children to learn and enjoy a natural setting. The facilities look great from the road and even better up close. You can tell a lot of good thought and hard work has gone into developing this place. I don't have little ones myself, but if I did there is no doubt I would be sending them to Pachamama!
