Early Learning Centres

Early Learning Centres that give every child the best start in life

Barnardos’ not-for-profit Early Learning Centres provide quality childcare and early learning for children in safe, inclusive environments where they are supported to grow, explore and believe in what’s possible. With a centre in Ultimo, Sydney, and a new centre opening soon in Merrylands, we create welcoming spaces where every child is valued, supported and encouraged to thrive.

Our approach is guided by a deep belief in children’s potential. We listen, nurture and respond to each child as an individual, supported by passionate, highly qualified educators who are committed to giving children the very best start in life. Through a play-based learning program, children build confidence, curiosity and connection—developing the skills they need to learn, belong and flourish, now and into the future.
