About Footscray Early Learning Centre

Footscray Early Learning Centre provides enriching care and learning for children up to 6 years old. The centre understands that children are competent and have a natural desire to learn. A team of dedicated educators and teachers provide stimulating programs that foster creativity and curiosity, whilst recognising and embracing individual personalities, cultures and family values.

The centre features sensory spaces that encourage learning through play. Interiors are bright and colourful with dedicated ‘bays’ where children can engage in art and craft, imaginative play, science, technology, reading and more. Educators encourage children to explore new interests, gently nurturing them to develop at their own pace and in their own way.

The inviting outdoor area features a range of age appropriate play equipment, a cubby house and sand pits. Educators support health and wellbeing with a range of sports and outdoor activities that also foster cognitive, physical, motor and social skills.

Located just 6km west of Melbourne CBD, the centre is a convenient option for both local families and commuters. Why not book a tour of this caring and creative centre today?

I am so happy to share my experience with Footscray Early learning centre, my daughter Rudra started daycare in August. Every member of the team is amazing and experienced. My daughter settled in well under the supervision of Sanjida , she learned a lot by means of her communication ,eating habits ,social skills ,and she is so excitedto go to the center everyday to see her teachers and friends.I am so thankful to Sanjida ,for taking good care of my daughter.I am also thankful to Margaret for the support and guidance she provides to the kids and family.I feel so confident to send my daughter to early learning centre Footscray because I know that she is in good hands and I highly recommend this centre for any families looking for day care or kindergarden facility.Theymake sure that every child's individual requirements are met with out any delay. They also have indoor and outdoor play area always supervised, the class rooms are spacious, and the food menu respects the culture and believes of certain communities and focused on food allergies. My daughter is coming home happy, enjoying her lessons and playing activities .
