Harrison Early Childhood Centre
About the Business
Welcome to Harrison Early Childhood Centre, located at 24 Wimmera Street in Harrison, Australia. Our establishment is a point of interest for families and individuals seeking high-quality early childhood education and care.
At Harrison Early Childhood Centre, we prioritize the holistic development and well-being of children in their early years. Our dedicated team of educators and staff are passionate about providing a nurturing and stimulating environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive.
Situated in the beautiful suburb of Harrison, our centre is surrounded by nature, offering a peaceful and engaging setting for children to explore and discover. We believe in the importance of outdoor play and regularly incorporate nature-based activities into our curriculum.
As an institution, we are proud to be affiliated with Northside Community Service, a well-respected organization that acknowledges and respects the traditional owners of the land, the Ngunnawal people. We recognize and honor the ongoing connection they have to the land and community, as well as the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who have chosen to make this land their home.
At the heart of our community, we celebrate the relationship between children and Elders, both of whom are held in high regard and considered sacred. We believe that they are the bridge between the past, present, and future, and we strive to create an inclusive and culturally diverse environment that embraces their wisdom and experiences.
As an organization, we are committed to listening to, working with, and acknowledging the strengths of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We believe in fostering cultural competence and respect among our staff, families, and children, ensuring that everyone feels valued and included.
At Harrison Early Childhood Centre, we offer a range of programs and services tailored to the unique needs and interests of each child. Our curriculum is play-based, promoting hands-on learning experiences that encourage creativity, problem-solving, and social interaction.
We understand the importance of building strong partnerships with families and the wider community, and we actively encourage parental involvement in our programs and events. We believe that by working together, we can create a supportive and enriching environment for children to thrive.

Reviews
"My daughter has been attending Harrison since earlier this year. I couldn't be happier with the centre and most importantly the Educators. My daughter is a bit of a hesitant starter, once the educators whisk her off she is set for the day and loves it. She has a great day with the other children and the educators take great care of her. To see her at the end of the day farewell her friends and give the educators a cuddle is just priceless. I must also mention that the support given to me and my daughter by Wendy the director has been outstanding. Wendy greets every child by name and my daughter loves to look out for her each morning to say hi. If I need to ask for anything Wendy is spontaneous in her responses. My child has learned so much in the last six months through interacting with other children and adults. She has become increasingly more confident and often comes home with new songs and chats excitedly about her day."
"Harrison ELC is an amazing centre and we are so happy with the service and care provided to our 2 children. They both really enjoy their time there and are learning so many new things. The Educators clearly love what they do and it shows. Recently my son needed to have 2 weeks off for surgery and I was so taken back by how much the team at Harrison genuinely missed him while he was gone, very touching! Highly recommend the centre :-)"
"My son has attended Harrison Day care for almost two years. The staff have been excellent in the care they provide and are sympathetic to children's individual needs. Where possible the children go on excursions to the library and other places which my son looks forward to every week. I receive a progress report each term letting me know how my child is developing. I also like the community spirit surrounding the centre with parents friendly to each other and saying hello even if they don't know you. I would recommend Harrison day care to anyone who wants quality care for their child."
"My daughter has been at the centre since late 2015 and I could not be happier with the care she receives. The educators and Director of the centre have always taken an interest in her well being and happiness, and have kept me informed and updated where necessary. My daughter has a number of medical issues, including allergies, asthma and hay fever, and these have always been dealt with professionally and with great care. My daughter loves attending each day and looks forward to spending time with the educators and other children. Knowing that she is so happy there makes going to work that much easier for my husband and I. Thank you Harrison Early Childhood Centre."
