Oz Education is truly my child’s home away from home! Attending five days a week, my little one loves the clean, welcoming environment and delicious, nutritious meals. The educators are exceptional—dedicated, professional, and genuinely caring. I feel completely confident knowing my child is in such a safe and nurturing space every day. Highly recommend Oz Education early learning centre to any family seeking quality early education and care!
Sayed
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!

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.
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.
