About Us

At Cairns Central Childcare, we provide a loving, caring and nurturing environment that promotes each child's learning and development, self-esteem and individuality, while having a day that's lots of fun!

Our qualified educators are passionate about delivering the highest quality of care and are committed to providing a positive, nurturing and stimulating environment where the needs of the children are our top priority.

We run a Queensland Approved Kindergarten Program, which is delivered five days a week by a qualified Early Childhood Teacher. The aim of this program is to prepare your child for prep while still offering the flexibility of a long daycare hours.

The philosophy of care at Cairns Central Childcare is based on showing children of all ages that they are respected and treated as competent individuals, and allow them to make decisions for themselves, listen to them and make every opportunity to teach and grow the future generation.
