Birches Early Learning Centre is a privately owned childcare centre and kindergarten tucked away in an tranquil setting at 90 Brunt Road, Beaconsfield. Our purpose-built state the art early learning centre is surrounded by abundant and natural play spaces that offer a truly organic learning environment in a convenient location. Our beautiful light filled facilities lead directly onto a wonderland of landscape designed playgrounds with double the licenced capacity that will ignite the imagination.

Birches Early Learning Centre provides both care and education within a long day care setting and caters for the littlest of enrolees in the Nursery through to the 4 Year Old Kindergarten group who develop their school readiness skills under the supportive wing of our Early Childhood Teacher.

Our Philosophy

Birches Early Learning Centre has a commitment to “raising the bar” in early education and the team at Birches ELC work tirelessly to deliver exceptional quality care and education for every child, every day. Our educational philosophies are under-pinned by the widely respected Reggio Emilia approach to learning which supports enquiry and play-based learning experiences in natural and responsive environments. Our learning programs are designed to be emergent in nature and, through reflective practices, are guided by the children’s interests and needs.

Qualified, Experienced and Dedicated Staff

At Birches Early Learning Centre we believe our team of Early Childhood educators are one of our most valuable assets and we could not achieve our goals or honour our philosophies without their knowledge, support and hard work. Our team understand the responsibility that comes with the role of an educator and are committed to ensuring that every child not only enjoys their time with us, but has been exposed to every available developmental and learning opportunity.

Our team approach ensures the individual and collective needs of the children are met in a harmonious and friendly environment. By maintaining a consistent and professional team of staff, we facilitate continuity and familiarity for the children and their families.

Our permanent team of highly qualified and experienced individuals have been selected through an arduous recruitment process that requires the following as a minimum:

• Working With Children Check
• First Aid
• CPR
• Emergency Anaphylaxis Management and EpiPen administration
• Emergency Asthma Management
• Food Handling and/or Food Supervisor Certificate

Our team participate in regular professional development, mentoring and first aid training to ensure they remain at the top of their profession.

All team members hold (or are actively working towards) an early childhood qualification. Our educator-to-child ratios are better than the recommended minimum ensuring high quality care and supervision.
