Headstart Early Learning Centre East Melbourne

With our state of the art purpose built child care centres, Headstart Early Learning Centre's have created an environment to stimulate and challenge children. The National Early Years Learning Framework is a program designed to stimulate brain development through play based learning. We offer a controlled program to compliment the success of your child's abilities now and in later years.

It's hard to know what to expect when you're first enrolling in childcare. So to make it easier for you, we've created a parent handbook for you to view online or print out to read later.

The parent handbook contains lots of helpful information about what to expect from childcare, what to bring on your child's first day and other useful information such as links to government sites with information about the CCS and any benefits you may be entitled to.If you require any further information, please feel free to call or drop in to any one of our centres to discuss your needs with the Centre Manager or any of our educators.

At our centres, we offer an active and exciting kindergarten or preschool program with passionate Early Childhood Teachers, the convenience of meals and extended hours to fit in with your busy days. You may also be eligible for up to 36 hours of funding with your Child Care Subsidy! Our kindergarten and preschool program is the perfect way to support your child's school readiness in an exciting, engaging way.

The Government Child Care Subsidy (CCS) aims to make early learning more affordable; however, we understand it's not always easy to navigate. Our ultimate purpose is to ensure our families have all the tools and information at their disposal to feel confident in their children's journey in early childhood education.
