CSIROCare Clayton is a wonderful Not-For-Profit childcare centre. We have enrolled our son here before age one and the decision to come to CSIROCare has been a positive experience for both him and the family. He is close to three and is thriving. The community is very close knit the staff are incredibly caring and dedicated to the children and their wellbeing. The staff are also dedicated to their profession and being the best in the business, resulting in many staff members working for the long term. Our son truly enjoys his time at CSIROCare and rarely wants to leave once pickup time arrives. He speaks positively about his days at the centre and playing with his teachers and his friends. His interpersonal skills, his demeanour are all enhanced by the activities such as sport and music classes, his interactions with his peers and the teaching staff. I highly recommend CSIROCare for anyone considering childcare for their child. They would not be disappointed to enroll here. Thank you CSIROCare Clayton!

We absolutely love CSIROCare Clayton and feel so grateful to be part of it. The staff truly feel like family, and I always feel at ease knowing my kids are in such caring and familiar hands. My son has been through all 5 playrooms and has been happy at every stage, which really shows the consistency and quality of care. My daughter also started when she was just 10 months old, and she has been so well looked after. The long-standing team creates a safe, nurturing environment and genuinely supports each child’s learning and development. It’s such a comforting feeling knowing your children are cared for like family. Highly recommend!

My daughter attends this childcare. Right from day 1, we felt right at home. I really like the community feeling where every educator knows every child by their name. All educators are quite approachable. And I felt that the educators really like their job and love the children. Every day my daughter is quite excited to go to childcare and the kinder at this place.

CSIROCare is an outstanding not-for-profit centre that has had a truly positive impact on both my daughters and our family. I am incredibly grateful to be part of this community. The centre is professional, clean, and safe, while still maintaining a warm, family-oriented environment. The educators are caring, approachable, and genuinely invested in the children. They play and organise activities for the children and take the time to share updates about your child’s day when you pick up your child. Moving my older daughter to CSIROCare from another childcare was one of the best decisions I’ve made for her development—I only wish I had found it sooner. Since the move, she was noticeably happier and she stopped having a skin irritation that she would periodically develop after attending her former childcare. She didn’t even want to leave at pick-up time. My younger daughter, who is two, constantly talks about her educators and is excited to attend each day, which speaks volumes about the environment. It’s also clear that the staff truly value the centre, reflected in the excellent staff retention. The additional programs, such as music, sports, and excursions, are fantastic and add so much to my children's experience. Thank you to all the wonderful staff at CSIROCare Clayton!

This is a wonderful early learning centre. Both my daughters attended and it was terrific for our family. My wife and I have been nothing but impressed with the staff and the facilities. I also love that it is a not for profit enterprise. It is a service not a business and this shows in their treatment of the children and their parents.

Both my kids have attended/are attending CSIROcare and we are so happy with the center.

CSIRO care is an absolute gem! My two children are thriving here thanks to the incredibly caring and dedicated educators who treat every child with warmth and professionalism. The nurturing environment and engaging activities make it a standout centre. Also special thanks to Kellie who always being super patient to help.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ CSIRO Care Clayton has been amazing for our family. The educators are warm, caring, and truly dedicated to each child’s wellbeing and development. We’ve seen such positive growth in our children— more confidence, better social skills, and genuine excitement to go every day! Communication is fantastic too. We always feel informed about daily activities, learning milestones, and anything we can support from home. It’s reassuring to know our children are in such a safe, nurturing, and fun environment. We couldn’t be happier with the care and attention our children receive. Thank you to the wonderful team at CSIRO Care Clayton for everything you do!

CSIROCare Clayton is a rare centre that has so many experienced educators who have been at the centre for over 10 years (some over 30 years). We have been so lucky to have found CSIROCare Clayton, where our children have felt safe, happy and cared for by the fantastic staff. We have found the centre to have a balanced approach to education and socilalistation for the children. A big plus with the centre is the incursions to Monash University and CSIRO, which are both within walking distance for children and a wonderful educational resource.

CSIRO is a well established NFP childcare centre with some of the best staff retention I've ever seen! I moved my two sons from a for-profit shiny new centre to CSIRO two months ago. Since we moved, my kids don't come home with unexplained injuries, they don't cry at drop off, they are happy and look forward to attending. I don't need to call in to check on them, and I never have to worry. I honestly couldn't be happier with the level of care at CSIRO - my kids are happy, safe, and developing new skills every week. Thank you to all the staff for their unwavering and nurturing support. Highly recommend!
