About us

Our Story
Play is the natural language of a child. When you believe in the child’s lead, you allow them to take authority of their own learning. Play is part of our human life. It shapes creativity, communication, problem-solving, and confidence. At Stellar Minds PH, we champion this philosophy through inclusive, play-based education that supports every child’s unique developmental journey.

Our small groups are led by trained educators using child-safe materials and clear safety protocols. We partner with families through trial classes, simple progress notes, and at-home play prompts so learning feels joyful and growth is visible.
Introducing the Play All Year Package
Our Play All Year Package offers a full 12 months of enriching, play-based sessions designed to support each child’s growth at their own pace. Children enjoy inclusive, child-led learning activities crafted by early childhood educators, with access to all our sensory, creative, fine-motor, imaginative play, and literacy stations. Families also receive monthly progress check-ins from teachers, a Stellar Play Kit for continued learning at home, a personalized apron for creative and messy play, and four Bring-a-Friend playdates to encourage social confidence. With flexible scheduling that adapts to your family’s routine, this year-long program provides consistent, meaningful learning experiences that nurture curiosity, independence, and joy.

Beyond the classroom, we host sensory & STEM days, bookish play, and pop-up playdates with venues and brands. Stellar Minds PH helps children stay curious, confident, and ready for the next stage without losing the wonder of childhood.
