About Community Kids Hoppers Crossing Early Education Centre
We are conveniently located for families in or commuting through Tarneit, Hoppers Crossing, Truganina, Werribee and Williams Landing in Melbourne.
Many of our Children go on to attend local schools such as The Grange, St James the Apostle, Tarneit Rise, and St John the Apostle, supporting a smooth transition to school.
We offer nurturing care and quality early education for children from 6 weeks to 6 years, with flexible hours (9, 10, 11, and 12-hour sessions) to suit busy families.
Our Learning Environments
Our children benefit from familiar faces as they grow, creating a sense of continuity:
- Nursery (0-2 years): A safe, nurturing environment for babies to explore with tailored sensory and social experiences.
- Toddler (2-3 years): Play-based learning encourages curiosity, confidence, and social skills.
- Kindergarten (3-6 years): A stimulating learning environment that prepares our children for school through our Enhanced Learning Program.
We’re proud to have qualified teachers and educators, supported by a team of national education experts, ensuring the highest quality childcare and early education.
Innovative Early Learning Programs
Our teachers deliver the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF or the national curriculum) through play-based learning that covers language, literacy, numeracy, STEM, social, and emotional development. Our program also includes:
- Rhythm and Movement for Self-Regulation (RAMSR), an evidence-based program developed by Queensland University of Technology to support children’s executive function and self-regulation.
- Environmental and social sustainability learning experiences.
- Personalised learning plans for each child.
- Local school connections.
We focus on strong family partnerships through regular learning and development conversations with your child’s lead educator, learning showcases, and in-centre family events. Our Xplor app provides real-time updates and learning summaries daily to keep you informed on your child’s journey.

My daughter has been going in for close to 3 years now. The staff there have been a wealth of knowledge, empathy, patience, respect and a sense of safety and comfort for not only my daughter but me aswell. I recommend this place to all my friends and family. Thank you Community Kids, you have become like a second family and I can't wait for my youngest to become a part of it too.

Absolutely love everything about the centre. We moved our 18 months old from another center to here and he was more settled in his first day than months at the other place. All the staff including admin are fantastic. Individual updates on your child are so thorough. Highly recommend!
