We’re part of your village at Community Kids Narre Warren Early Education Centre. Our early learning and long day care centre is ideally located for families living or commuting through Hampton Park, Narre Warren South, Berwick Springs and Cranbourne North. We are open from 6:30 AM to 6:30 PM for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years.
Our centre is proud to have received Exceeding the National Quality Standard. The National Quality Standard encompasses the seven key quality areas that are important outcomes for children’s learning and development.
Spacious areas designed to inspire
From the moment you step into our Narre Warren child care centre, you will experience a world where children are inspired to explore, learn and grow. Our spacious outdoor environments includes sandpits, climbing fort, cubby house, 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.
Community-based early learning
Throughout the year, educators and children venture out on excursions to our local Narre Warren community visiting nearby parks, aged care facility and the hospital. We also regularly welcome special community guests to the centre based on the children’s interests including hairdressers. 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 offer a rotating schedule of engaging specialised programs including sports, music and bush kinder. We also offer an engaging sustainability program teaching the children a sense of responsibility and connection to their world.
School aged care programs
Our well-planned After School care program provides children with a positive social environment designed for play, leisure and learning. Children participate in diverse experiences, allowing them to be physical and creative and have time to relax before or after the school day. Our school holiday care program offers school-age children (aged 5 – 12 years) time to unwind and spend time with friends during school holidays. The program provides daily variety, focusing on fun and learning through a mix of indoor and outdoor play.
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.
