About Learn & Laugh Marrickville

Opened 11th September 2023!

Learn & Laugh at Marrickville is in an all-new, architecturally designed centre, constructed with a boutique homely feel in mind. We are located on Ivanhoe Street, in a quiet part of Marrickville. The centre caters for only 55 children, and is separated into 3 specially designed rooms which have been developed to really allow children to explore, learn and be nurtured.

Hi, my name is Melissa Sekulic. I am a mother of two children myself and I have been working in the childcare industry just short of 20 years now. I hold a Diploma in Early Childhood Education with several years of experience under my belt as both Educator and Centre Manager.

Hand on heart I have to say that Learn and Laugh shares my passion and ensures that everything is about and for the children.

I started working in the childcare industry through my love for children and being able to watch them grow, develop and achieve their milestones whilst having the opportunity and being proud to play a part in the people they become, our future generation.

I believe each child is unique, individual and learn best through active learning. My aim is to provide a secure, caring and stimulating environment where each of our children are able to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically and socially.

As centre manager of learn and laugh Marrickville I look forward to ensuring myself and our educators provide only the best for you and our children.
