Alfred Child Care Centre overview

Welcome to Alfred Child Care Centre

Alfred Child Care Centre goes beyond childcare. We create a safe and nurturing environment where childhood is celebrated.

We are proud of our longstanding reputation of providing rich education and care to the children of both Alfred Hospital employees and the general community, in a family-focussed and supportive way.

Respectful relationships and partnerships underpin our practice. Our highly experienced and dedicated teachers and educators build strong, trusting relationships with each child, fostering a sense of belonging and confidence.

We offer a welcoming, home-like environment that strives to make each child feel secure and supported.

The centre operates on the site of The Alfred Hospital and provides a high quality service to meet the needs of The Alfred Hospital staff. Where vacancies exist, places are also available to the community.

The centre has been designed so there is a maximum of 10 children in each group/room with 2 rooms for the youngest children (0-2 year olds) which observe a 1:4 staff to child ratio. A state government funded preschool program is provided.

When children play and explore, their imagination and curiosity are sparked – they enjoy learning and are inspired to continue learning more.

We have a strong focus on building collaborative partnerships with families and the community. This supports children to develop trust and confidence within the learning environment, while enhancing their awareness of different cultures.

Alfred Child Care Centre has been independently assessed by the Victorian Department of Education and are proud to be rated as Meeting the National Quality Standard.

Our team of early childhood educators are qualified, experienced, caring and highly motivated. All hold specialist qualifications in early childhood education. We believe that the positive interactions children have with our staff are the most important component of our high quality program.

We pride ourselves on our very low turnover of staff, which enables us to form trusting relationships with children and their families, providing a sense of consistency, predictability, safety and trust. A number of our staff have been working at the centre for over six years.
