About Community Kids Melton Early Education Centre
We are conveniently located for families in or commuting through Melton, Melton West, Harkness, Melton South, Brookfield and Kurunjang.
Many of our Children go on to attend local schools such as Kuranjang Primary School, 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.

If you’re looking for a daycare, this is for YOU! It’s more than a daycare it’s a second family you didn’t think you needed. I love everything about this place & everyone. As a mom I drop off the kids with no hesitation of knowing they are loved and cared for.

I absolutely love Community Kids. I would highly recommend it to any family. I have be apart of the CK community for 2 years and from day one each and every staff are so welcoming, friendly and they just adore my little one. From healthy food served daily. To fun activities and opportunities given to the children this day care is a wonderful community. I did orientation a few times a week for a couple of weeks as my LO was a very shy child. They have helped him adjust and are so encouraging to help him find his way. He now runs in holding his bag excited to go to day care. What I love most about CK is that there isn’t a high turn over of staff, each staff member knows all the children. Everyone always greets you in the madness of the morning drop off rush and they’re always up for a good chat. Highly recommend ✨

What can I say about community kids Melton? They are amazing in every way possible, my daughter absolutely loves and adores going here and cannot wait to always go back to see the amazing educators and the little friends she has made along the way. My first thoughts when choosing this place was it felt like home, greeted with smiles and warmth from day one by the amazing Zaki(one of the amazing educators here), the activities and care they take with your child. The food by the amazing chef always leaves my daughter coming home full and happy, the educators really treat your child like their own and it’s so hard to find somewhere where you can trust leaving your child. All I can say is you definitely want your child enrolled at this childcare/kinder, absolutely no regrets and you will always leave with a smile on your face.
