Froebel Carlton Early Learning Centre

Froebel Carlton offers an integrated Kindergartenprogram focussing on preparing your child for formal schooling, helping them develop their social and emotional skills, independence and self-esteem as well as communication skills needed to thrive at school.

What are the benefits of a Kindergarten program integrated into a long daycare setting:

• Your child will be able to attend our Kindergarten program during normal daycare hours (7:30am to 6pm)
• Our centre doesn't have term breaks (we are only closed on national Public Holidays and for a one-week closing period at the end of the year)
• All meals are provided and made freshly by our amazing centre chef (save the lunchbox packing for later ;-))
• Add casual extra days for your flexibility (subject to availability)
• See your child’s learning and development in their individual learning plan
• You will be able to claim Childcare Subsidy as usual in our Kindergarten rooms
• We are an approved provider of a funded Kindergarten program – families nominating Froebel to deliver the funded program for their child will benefit from lower fees and the additional so called ‘free Kinder’ funding of up to $2101 per child and year which will go towards your fees as weekly pro-rata credits on top of your family's CCS payments

Google review from May 2025:

"We have been sending our son to the Froebel Carlton ELC for almost a year now.

The high level of care from staff is obvious: not a pick-up or drop-off occurs without multiple members of the team telling consistent stories about how our son's day has gone, what he's been up to and who he's making friends with.

Thank you Tatiana and team for helping our child grow into a confident and capable individual."

We're so lucky to have a talented centre chef on site who is preparing all meals daily and freshly. Having our chef on site also means that we can accommodate your child's specific dietary requirements and allergies - just speak to our Centre Director upon enrolment. 

We are excited to invite you to our upcoming 'Casa Abierta' (Open House) at Froebel Carlton.
