Stepping Stones Child Development Centre overview
Stepping Stones Child Development Centre is a registered not-for-profit organisation that was established by the East Fremantle Baptist Church in 2010. Our service provides a Pre-kindy/Kindy program catering for children from 2 years 9 months to 5 years of age. We are open Monday to Friday 7:30am - 5:30pm, 50 weeks of the year.
We have a team of highly-skilled, professional teachers who are committed to and passionate about quality play-based education and care in a community-focused, Christian environment. Our children and families are known and loved as individuals in our tight-knit 40 place centre.
Our program is delivered through intentional, play-based pedagogy aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework V2.0 and the Western Australian Kindergarten Curriculum, ensuring your child is fully prepared for their educational journey once they transition to a formal school setting.
We envision a community where joy, kindness, and gratitude grow – a trusted, inclusive space where children and families feel deeply connected and supported. At Stepping Stones, joy is found in everyday moments, and learning is embraced as a lifelong journey. Each child is encouraged to flourish in their own time and in their own way, surrounded by a community that walks beside them - growing together, one step at a time.

We really appreciate Stepping Stones' approach as a bridge between traditional daycare and school in how they support the children to build their independence. The half day option is great for us and we love all of the interesting and child led activities. The centre itself is well equipped with beautiful and safe outdoor play equipment as well as interesting child led activities. Most importantly, we adore the staff at the centre who are so warm, caring and fun. It makes a big difference to us that they want to work with us as parents to get the best child outcomes. We feel so grateful to have found a place which we have faith and confidence in and we are truly blessed to have such wonderful support available to our family! Read more

Both our boys have been to Stepping Stones and we love the teachers and caring environment. It is small and feels very homely. It is a great pre-kindy warm up to get 3 year olds ready for the routine of going to real kindy when they are 4. Read more

She also attends daycare and SS is by far her favourite. The effort the staff go to to provide educational and fun activities, as well as foster a sense of community is outstanding, as are the facilities. Could not recommend enough. Read more

Our son has thrived at Stepping Stones over the past year and has learnt many valuable lessons which will prepare him for kindy and beyond. The staff are hugely dedicated and are always looking for new learning opportunities - many led by the children. The kids have a great space to play in outside and inside and are encouraged to interact with the natural environment. They are allowed to play in the rain (hoorah). I can't recommend it highly enough. A special mention to his teacher Amy who is incredible. Read more

"learning... through our Christian values" actually means a fair bit of preaching towards the christian faith itself for your little child. Personally I feel this is a betrayal of trust for the very young and impressionable child, to have this put on them. Christian values in education should be limited to respect, responsibility, self-control, honesty, compassion, thankfulness, perseverance, humility, and loyalty - these are universal values of course, not owned by any faith. Having said this our little girl has been going here for 2 years and loves it. They have a great set up with garden and wide verandah and a good programme of learning through play. Read more
Thanks for your review. Stepping Stones Child Development Centre openly says who we are, what we believe and what learning environment we offer. It is up to you as a parent to choose if you want to bring your child along as we seek to prepare children educationally, physically, socially and emotionally for school. We are so glad that your daughter loves attending Stepping Stones!
