About City Kids Early Learning Centre
City Kids Early Learning Centre first opened our doors in April 2010. We started with the vision of providing exceptional quality care and education, and that vision continues to this day. This privately owned centre embodies the spirit of community and a sense of belonging, not only for our families but for the wonderful staff we employ. It is this vision and sense of community and belonging that has made City Kids a high standing early learning centre within the heart of Melbourne.
Throughout our centre you will find dedicated and passionate staff who provide a nurturing and secure environment that allows children to reach their full potential. In addition to this, our focus is on providing rich learning opportunities through play and teacher led experiences. Informed by the National and Victorian Frameworks (EYLF & VEYLF) we strive to achieve the fundamentals of the Framework, which are Being, Belonging and Becoming. We do this in partnership with our families, the most significant educators in a child’s life.

Words from Happy Families
From the moment I walked into City Kids, I was made to feel welcome. Everyone who works there is friendly and supportive, and I love the fact that everyone knows all the kids' names. The food menu is healthy which is important to me and I feel secure knowing he is very well cared for by the educators and staff. Highly recommend!
