Children’s Educational Care Centre is located in the leafy suburb of Hazelwood Park. We operate out of two joining facilities and cater for 69 children each day.

The Centre is open 52 weeks of the year Monday to Friday from 7:30am to 6:00pm (excluding public holidays).

Our Centre has been assessed by the Education and Early Childhood Services Registration and Standards Board and received an Exceeding rating.

Our programs are formatted by experienced staff to enhance children’s learning and to provide all children with a sense of belonging and to embrace the Early Years Learning Framework. We work closely with our families to ensure children reach their full potential through a diverse curriculum of rich, play based learning experiences.

All meals and snacks are provided by the Centre and are prepared fresh on-site daily using Nutrition Australia Guidelines. We have an experienced on-site chef who cooks hot lunches for the children every day and caters for all dietary requirements.

All nappies and bed linen are supplied by our Centre, we just ask you to bring in a named water bottle for your child/ren. We are an accredited ‘Cancer Council’ Sunsmart Centre and we supply all sunscreen.

We require all children to be immunised to ensure a safe and healthy environment. Evidence will need to be provided on enrolment and on an ongoing basis.

Our philosophy is based on the belief that each child within the Centre is viewed as a unique individual to be nurtured and developed to their full potential.  We support each child’s need for challenge and promote children to aim for that next level, encouraging children to step outside their comfort zone. We provide opportunities for success to help develop a child’s positive self-concept and focus on the implementation and development of strategies to enhance the achievement of this philosophy.
