“Ari has been attending the day care since he was 8 months old and now that he is 3 years old loves it so much. All the staff go out of their way to make my son and my husband and I feel like part of the Wallaby family and ensure that they are caring for our son in the same way we would at home.”

Our inviting 5-room centre is the ultimate home-away-from-home with fairy-tale gardens, cosy rooms and highly-qualified long-term staff to make every baby, toddler, pre-kinder and kinder children feel at peace.

Purpose-built with all the comforts of home including individual reverse-cycle climate-control to every room and a full kitchen for our chef, this well-resourced centre has natural gardens to hide away, vegies to harvest and tall trees shading it all.

Where You'll Find Us

At the entry to Melbourne Polytechnic, Wallaby Childcare Greensborough is situated in a leafy educational precinct, across the road from Apollo Parkways Primary School and Diamond Valley Special School and one exit along the Ring Road from RMIT’s Bundoora campus. Just a few minutes from major Greensborough Plaza shopping and the adjacent station, this welcoming centre is immensely accessible by road, rail and even a tram route.

What We Do

A real family affair with places for babies from 6 weeks up to pre-schoolers, this inviting centre has been at the heart of the Greensborough community for over 2 decades. Over that time we’ve welcomed entire families – brothers, sisters, cousins and friends – in a way that connects the community and welcomes everyone.

With highly-trained staff on hand to care for and teach children at every level, our program even extends to speciality options; including Music and Movement classes, Sports Programs, and Chinese Language and Science Classes for our Kinder children.

Everything
About Us

Our Family

From the very beginning, our business has been built on constructing facilities, choosing staff and creating programs that meet the individual needs of the communities we serve. As a family owned and operated group, Wallaby Childcare has been providing superior childcare services since 2005 with a home-away-from-home for our children.

Our Vision

We are committed to creating a place where children are stimulated to thrive, encouraged to explore, and inspired to develop a life-long love of learning. We want our children to create fond memories, make first friendships and grow from shared experiences. Most of all, we want them to see us a cherished part of their childhood.

Our Programs

Grounded in the curriculum set by the national Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and the state Victorian Early Years Learning Framework (VEYLDF) our programs are partially based around the Reggio Emilio concept of child-directed indoor-outdoor play. Designed to allow every child to be an individual learner, our programs let children work at their own pace to achieve the age-appropriate objectives identified for them.

Our Storypark app will even keep you in touch with everything that’s going on at the centre… and with your child in particular.

Our People

Our staff like coming to work, our key Directors have been with Wallaby Childcare since the earliest days, and most of our staff have been with us for many years. They stay with us because we help them to be their best. At Wallaby Childcare, we encourage our staff to develop skills, continue education, add to their qualifications…and build their careers around your children.

Our Centres

Every Wallaby centre is designed in consultation with the people who work there. This means our centres are as unique as our children – with everything from outdoor classrooms, to bespoke play-gyms, to our famous Big Red Barn. Every centre is designed to grow and adapt with our programs, the seasons and our children’s changing interests with rooms that blur the boundaries between inside and out, gardens with shade and shelter and customised play equipment.

Our Food

Every Wallaby Childcare centre has a qualified chef on-site creating fresh meals that are tasty enough to tempt the busiest child, and varied enough to offer choices for the fussiest eater…and it goes without saying they are expert in working within religious and cultural boundaries.

Our Welcome

Our children come from all over the world, they have a range of abilities and a diversity of family situations…just like us. At Wallaby Childcare, we draw our staff from where we are based, they are of all ages and genders, and all sorts of families – they mirror your community and, when needed they can be supplemented by interpreters and support staff to meet your child’s individual needs.
