About Garfield Childcare

Garfield Childcare, Preschool & OOSH is a boutique family owned centre, serving the community since 2007. 

At Garfield, we are dedicated to providing a warm, nurturing, and educational environment for children to grow, learn, and thrive. Our experienced and caring team is committed to fostering creativity, curiosity, and social development, ensuring each child feels valued, safe, and inspired.

This centre comprises of five rooms, each specifically designed and resourced to suit the needs of different age groups from infants to pre-schoolers and also our OOSH building which features large, challenging outdoor play equipment for children over 6 years old. 

We offer a variety of programs designed to support the unique developmental needs of every child, from infants to preschoolers and above. With a focus on play-based learning, we encourage exploration, self-expression, and collaboration, laying the foundation for a lifetime of learning.

What makes us different? - Our service features classes with a smaller limit of children, this allows our educators to spend more time with your child to develop trusting and nurturing bonds. We value each individual child, and together with parents and caregivers we strive to create a collaborative approach to education, where open communication and mutual support are at the heart of every child's learning experience.

Our educators are here to stay! We have long standing educators that have been at the centre for up to 10 years, providing continuity of care for your child, and allowing them to feel a sense of belonging and quickly settle into the learning environment.
