Community Kids Horsham

We’re part of your village at Community Kids Horsham Child Care Early Education Centre. Our early learning and long day care Centre is ideally located for families living or commuting through Horsham and Dooen. We are located on the Western Highway (Baillie Street) and are centrally located for your convenience. We are open from 6:30 AM to 6:30 PM for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years.

Spacious areas designed to inspire

From the moment you step into our Horsham childcare centre, you will experience a world where children are inspired to explore, learn and grow. Our spacious outdoor environments include climbing equipment, sandpits, and a vegetable garden to engage all the senses. Children are provided time and space for uninterrupted play as they explore the outdoor spaces to test their limits and develop strength, balance, and self-confidence.

Our indoor environments invite exploration with quality resources and learning experiences. Children marvel, create, and test out their ideas as they play with a range of materials in purposeful play spaces. Our team of experienced educators plan play-based learning experiences around children’s interests and learning goals. Literacy and numeracy concepts are embedded in play-based learning, as children engage as architects, storytellers, scientists, artists and designers. You will also receive daily photos and updates of your child's learning and development through our parent app - Xplor.

Healthy meals freshly prepared in-house

You won’t need to worry about packing lunch and snacks for your child. We provide healthy, freshly made meals created daily by our in-house cook, catering for all dietary requirements. Shared mealtimes between children and educators grow relationships, with opportunities to share stories and experiences, and model healthy eating practices. We are very lucky to have an experienced and qualified chef preparing our meals fresh daily.

Community-based early learning

Throughout the year, educators and children venture out to on excursions to our local Horsham community visiting local parks, gardens, library, CFA, tennis courts and Woolworths Fresh Kids tours (Kinder). Neighbourhood connections support a sense of community and belonging for children and provide opportunities to develop social and observational skills with different people, places, and environments. We also offer an engaging sustainability program teaching the children a sense of responsibility and connection to their world.  

As members of our Community Kids community, we look forward to partnering with you to provide information, support, and high-quality education and care in your child’s formative years.

Our Family Support Team are happy to chat through your childcare needs. Call 1800 411 604 to enquire or book a tour at our centre, meet our team of educators, and learn more about why these first five years are so important for your child’s development.
