At The Hive Early Learning Centres, we’re a family-owned childcare group led by a dedicated husband and wife team with over 15 years of experience revitalising early learning centres across Victoria.
Our passion lies in nurturing every child and family with genuine care, creating welcoming environments where children feel safe, valued and inspired to grow.
Our founders remain actively involved in the daily operations, personally connecting with each centre to ensure our values of trust, quality and heart-led education are felt in every interaction.
Maple is the official brand mascot of The Hive. Maple is a warm, friendly bear who represents the nurturing, supportive, and community-focused spirit of our brand.
You’ll see Maple featured throughout our centres, reminding children and families that The Hive is a place where everyone belongs, feels cared for, and is encouraged to grow together.
