About Great Beginnings Brookfield

We are conveniently located for families in or commuting through Melton South, Melton West, Hopetoun Park, Exford, Kurunjang and Atherstone. 

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.

    Highly recommended ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • Peni Rasolosolo8 months ago

    My girls started at this centre at the age of 1 & 2 and are now both now graduated into prep 2024 +prep 2025. I could not recommend this centre enough, for the past 5 years the staff have been amazing, building very strong and trust worthy relationships with both of my girls. I will always pride the staff in giving the children LOVE although they are not paid to love! Management are always great, and always happy to answer any queries regarding bookings and care days. With the beautiful calming environment to the large play areas and loving staff - I will be sending my next born to the centre although we have moved 15mins away.

    My daughter went here, all the staff is very nice and caring. She has enjoyed her time in the centre. If they start six monthly parents catchup for kinder parents, that would be a great initiative. We had few complaints over the years which were addressed by the staff and they tried their best to rectify. None of the complaint was regarding center or staff, they were all about other kid's behaviour or using bad words and center took it seriously to address those issues.

    In this day care staff is very good . My daughter go to there . But guys please careful specially new parents who just enrolling. When you booking mind booking public holidays. Be very careful because this is what happened to me . They will not cancel it even you request them. Being a new parent they really didn’t want to discuss with me that we will be closed on public holidays. They simply charged me for public holidays. They will never let you know after booking please cancel this we will be close this day. That’s make us very disappointed and untrustworthy for this . Just check the calendar for public holidays. Specially new parents who. For staff so much love and thanks.
