We have had our 2.5 year old son enrolled at Bruce Ridge Early Childhood (BREC) for the last few months and we are incredibly happy with the level of care he receives, and he absolutely loves it. From the moment we toured the center to today, the center has always felt like home, and the educators and staff go out of their way to make you feel like part of the family! ❤️ It may not have all the fancy "bells and whistles" that other big daycare franchises offer like parents rooms with coffee etc., but their spaces are clean, welcoming, filled with natural light, they have a great on-site cook, fabulous outdoor spaces and gardens, and the center has great resources to keep the kids entertained. They really care for the kids, foster relationships, teach them through play, and have an absolute ball. We get regular updates through the Storypark app, but we can also get a full update when we pick up our child at the end of the day. We initially had our child at another larger daycare in Bruce and weren't happy for a number of reasons, so we moved him over to BREC and are so pleased we did. He is thriving! Big shout out to the team at BREC and Capital Regional Community Services. 👏☺️

The experience for parents and kids was much better when it was an independent facility before CRCS took over. They don't publish daily photo journals like BRECC used to and structured activities and learning seemed to drop off.

About Bruce Ridge Early Childhood Centre

Bruce Ridge Early Childhood Centre is a 72-place centre conveniently located in the North Canberra Hospital precinct and close to the University of Canberra. Our warm and welcoming environments, including engaging, natural outdoor spaces, give children many opportunities to learn, grow and explore through play-based experiences.

Our team of experienced and dedicated Educators strive to create a nurturing and stimulating atmosphere that encourages children to develop a love for learning.

We offer part-time and full-time programs, open early (6:30am) and offer casual bookings for families who need more flexibility with their schedules.

We provide much more than childcare. Our mission is to create an inclusive, secure and respectful childhood environment that empowers children to explore their passions, form nurturing, trustworthy relationships, and reach their fullest potential through a child-led educational approach.

In addition to our academic curriculum, we nurture children’s social and emotional growth, creativity and physical well-being, to help them become confident, well-rounded individuals.

We care about the whole family, not just the children who attend our services. We actively involve parents in their child's learning journey and encourage open communication and collaboration between Educators and families, to create a supportive network that fosters a strong bond between home and the centre.

As part of Capital Region Community Services, a not-for-profit community service organisation that has been in the Belconnen region for nearly 50 years, we know the power of community and pride ourselves on making a difference. We prioritise the care of children above all else, and this is reflected in our policies, practices and prices.
