Our son has been attending Oz Education since he was a baby, and now, as he gets ready for school, we couldn’t be happier with his progress. The educators are caring, professional, and nurturing, always supporting his learning and development. He loves coming to the centre every day, and we feel completely confident knowing he’s in such a safe and welcoming environment. Highly recommend Oz Education.
Amanda
My 4-year-old has attended since she was 7 months old and absolutely loves it. I was nervous returning to work, but the wonderful staff at Oz Education created a warm, nurturing environment that gives me total confidence every day. My daughter is always excited to see her educators, and the Centre Director does an amazing job managing the centre. We love it so much that we still attend even after moving out of the area—it’s worth the travel!

A Safe & Secure Place For Your Child
At Oz Education, nothing is more important than the happiness, safety and wellbeing of your child.
As a family‑owned childcare provider – and parents ourselves – we understand just how much trust you place in us. That trust is never taken lightly. For more than 45 years, our centres have proudly met and maintained the standards of the National Quality Framework (NQF), creating safe, nurturing environments where every child is protected, supported, and valued.

Childcare Funding Support For Families
The Government has introduced the 3 Day Guarantee, which provides all CCS eligible families with a minimum of 72 subsidised hours per fortnight, no matter your work, study or training hours.
Oz Education Early Learning Centres offer flexible hours – 9, 10, 11 or full day long daycare sessions to help minimise your out-of-pocket expenses for childcare and save further. If your family is entitled to a maximum subsidy of 95%, your fees could start from as little as $12 a day, depending on the centre.
Oz Education centres in New South Wales are approved for the Child Care Subsidy (CCS) and participate in the NSW Start Strong program.
Oz Education centres in Victoria are approved for the Child Care Subsidy (CCS) and participate in the Victorian Government’s Free Kinder initiative.
This ensures high‑quality early learning is accessible for more families. We’re here to support families and provide the best care and learning for every child.
