For Deer Park families who commute east for work or want a smaller, more personal centre, Anderson Road Child Care Centre is an easy addition to the morning run — just a short drive along the Western Highway or Ballarat Road into Albion.
We’re a single, independent long day care and kindergarten for children 6 weeks to 5 years. The program is play-based and guided by the Early Years Learning Framework, the centre is assessed as Meeting NQS, and meals are cooked fresh on site and included in the fee.
Long day care is $165 per day before the Child Care Subsidy. Funded 3 and 4 year old kindergarten is free for eligible families and taught by a bachelor-qualified early childhood teacher.
