About Great Beginnings Mill Park

We are conveniently located for families in or commuting through Mill Park, South Morang, Bundoora, Epping, Thomastown and surrounds.

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.

Maddi Huglinabout 1 month ago

We have been with GB Mill Park for almost three years and have been exceptionally happy with the care provided. The centre has supported our children with school readiness, emotional regulation, sharing and communicating and learning to be good humans. We are always greeted with a smile, even in the carpark before entering sometimes! The staff truly go above and beyond to make our kids a part of the community. A special shoutout to Savi, Fiona, Jasvi, Gabi, Satvinder and Kass who have cared for our little ones across the years and show exceptional dedication to fun and safety.
