Engineering Safe, Nurturing Spaces for Lifelong Learning

At erbas™, we understand that early learning environments play a vital role in shaping a child’s development and well-being. Designing for this age group requires more than just compliance, it demands a deep understanding of safety, comfort, accessibility, and emotional connection to space.

We work closely with childcare providers, architects, and education specialists to deliver high-performing, welcoming environments that support learning through play. Our designs consider the unique operational, regulatory, and environmental requirements of early learning centres, from acoustics and thermal comfort to hygiene, security, and staff well-being.

Our experience spans:

  • Long day care and early learning centres
  • Integrated childcare facilities within schools and mixed-use developments
  • Refurbishment, adaptive reuse, and new-build projects
  • Design for indoor-outdoor play, rest, and engagement
  • Compliance with National Quality Framework (NQF) and Education and Care Services regulations

Through erbas™ SUSTAIN, we also support the creation of healthy, sustainable childcare environments. Our team integrates energy-efficient systems, indoor air quality strategies, and sustainable materials selection contributing to long-term operational value and positive environmental outcomes.

By engineering safe, nurturing and future-ready spaces, erbas™ proudly supports the early learning sector in giving every child the best possible start.
