About City Kids Early Learning Centre

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

My son has been part of the City Kids family for 5 years starting as a 7 month old baby and will soon be leaving to start school in 2019. The wonderful staff and management show the deepest care, patience and genuine love for all of the children. Their dedication to the educational needs of all is outstanding and my son was challenged, stimulated and extended. He has established many deep connections with educators and loved going everyday. As parents we highly recommend City Kids and are very grateful that they have been part of our lives.
