Child’s Play ELC 1 Pintail Drive, Torquay, Victoria 3228

Welcome to Child's Play Early Learning Centre (ELC), located at Torquay, Pintail Drive, 1 in Australia. As a family-owned and community-driven institution, we are committed to providing exceptional childcare services to children in Melbourne's Western Suburbs and the Bellarine region of Victoria.

Led by our experienced directors, Sam and Ian Johnson, who have over 20 years of experience in education, we strive to offer high-quality early child care education to every child. At Child's Play ELC, we believe in a play-based learning approach that fosters real-world experiences, opportunities, and lifelong friendships for our children.

With four conveniently located centres in Tarneit, Tarneit West, Wyndham Vale, and Torquay, each of our facilities offers a unique learning experience for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years.

While there are numerous early learning centres to choose from, Child's Play ELC stands out as a special institution. It is our own family delivering top-notch education to your family. We prioritize play-based learning as the foundation for confident lifelong learners.

Our purpose-built spaces are designed to support both indoor and outdoor learning. We have an open-door policy, encouraging children to engage in play both inside and outside throughout the day.

At Child's Play ELC, our centres are managed by local educators and owned by Sam and Ian, who are parents themselves. We understand the challenges parents face when entrusting their children to childcare, and we assure you that our centres provide a safe, nurturing, and welcoming environment where your child can be themselves.

We firmly believe that every child deserves a high-quality education. Our philosophy of "Every Child Matters" is embedded in our curriculum, the relationships we build with our community, environment, and families, and the dedication of our educators.

As a family-owned and community-driven institution, Child's Play ELC offers a unique experience. Our educators work tirelessly to provide new activities each day that align with your child's interests. We actively participate in the community, collaborating with local schools, charities, and organizations. Our regular excursions to places like the library, community gardens, and the beach are enjoyed by our children, and we cherish the involvement of our community in our Child's Play family.

What sets Child's Play ELC apart from other childcare centres is our family-centered approach. Our owners, Sam and Ian, have two daughters of their own and have personally experienced the challenges of choosing the right childcare centre. This experience propelled them to create Child's Play, a centre that feels like a second home for all children. In recognition of her dedication and commitment to providing quality, family-oriented child care, Sam received Lalor's Business Women of the Year award in March 2021 from Joanne Ryan MP.

We are excited to meet you and your family! Whether you're looking for a centre close to home, work, or your loved ones, all our centres are family-owned and community-focused, providing exceptional care.
