About Wimble Street Child Care Co-op

Wimble Street Child Care Cooperative is a small parent-run centre that consistently achieves an ‘exceeding’ standard of excellence as assessed by the ACECQA (Australian Children’s Education & Care Authority).

We offer 31 places across three rooms and healthy and delicious meals for the children cooked on-site by our Wimble cooks. We also provide each child with a blanket for nap time and a Wimble Street hat for lots of sun safe outdoor play. Our Centre is open 7.45am to 5.45pm and the Centre provides morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea, catering to your child’s dietary needs.

Our front and middle rooms are multi-aging rooms. There is a significant body of literature that suggests that ‘family groupings’, that is multi-age groups, allow younger children the benefits of learning from and watching the skills of older children. Older children also benefit through the helping and caring relationships they form with their younger peers. 

Our three and  four year old kinder program is acclaimed by parents and includes one of the first bush kinder programs established in Victoria. You can read more about our programs and teaching and learning philosophy here. A key element of Wimble’s supportive and engaging environment for children must be attributed to our educators who have more than 50 years of working at Wimble between them. Wimble is proud of our record of retaining quality staff, most of our staff members have been at Wimble for 7 years or more and this translates into a stable, consistent and tailored environment of care for our children.

My two kids go to Wimble street, and the centre holds a special place in our heart. The staff build such wonderful relationships with the children, which makes drop offs warm and easy and (almost always) tear-free. We’ve also made some great friends in the Wimble community. Our children have thrived. I’m even a bit sad that our eldest is off to school next year!
