We’ve had both of our children at Birches for the past 18 months, and we honestly couldn’t be happier with our experience. They both absolutely love going every day.

About Birches Early Learning Centre Beaconsfield

Birches Beaconsfield is a family-owned childcare centre and kindergarten at 90 Brunt Road, just off the Princes Highway. It’s an easy drop-off for families in Beaconsfield, Officer and Berwick and surrounding areas. 


We care for children from six weeks to six years, from our nursery through to our 4-year-old kindergarten room, where an Early Childhood Teacher gets children ready for school.


Our centre
Our purpose-built centre has bright, light-filled rooms that open straight onto large, natural outdoor play spaces. Children spend plenty of time outside climbing, digging, exploring and using their imaginations.


How we teach
Our program is inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach and follows the Early Years Learning Framework. Learning is play-based and led by your child’s interests, so they stay curious, confident and engaged. Each month brings a new incursion, plus weekly music and sport sessions.


Our team
Our educators are the heart of Birches. Every team member holds, or is working towards, an early childhood qualification, along with a Working With Children Check, first aid, CPR, anaphylaxis and asthma training. We keep a stable, permanent team, so your child sees familiar faces each morning and you always know how their day went.


Good to know
Nappies, wipes and sunscreen included
9, 10 and 12 hour sessions to make the most of your Child Care Subsidy
Open 6:30am to 6:30pm, Monday to Friday

Parent communication and involvement

Parent communication and involvement

You’ll always know how your child’s day went. Through our parent app, you’ll get daily updates and photos covering meals, sleeps, activities and the moments worth sharing.


We see you as your child’s first teacher. Your knowledge of your child helps shape their learning with us, and we love hearing about interests, routines and milestones from home. Our educators are always happy to chat at drop-off and pick-up, and you’re welcome to book a time for a longer conversation whenever you need one.


Each child also has a developmental portfolio of artwork, photos and our observations. It’s a record of how they’ve grown with us, and it’s yours to keep when they move on.

Safety

Safety

Child safety isn’t a box we tick. It shapes every decision we make, from who we hire to how our rooms and yard are set up to how we listen to children.


We follow Victoria’s Child Safe Standards, and every educator holds a current Working With Children Check. Our team is trained in first aid, CPR, anaphylaxis and asthma management, so they’re ready to respond if something happens.


Our outdoor spaces are fully fenced and checked daily, and our rooms are set up so educators can supervise children at all times. Most importantly, we create an environment where children feel safe to speak up and know their voices will be heard.

We have been part of the centre since my daughter, Wynter, was just five months old, and I honestly couldn’t recommend it more highly.<br><br>The care, love, and support the educators provide is exceptional. Every single staff member has made us feel welcome, and it’s so reassuring knowing Wynter is in such a safe, nurturing, and happy environment each day.<br><br>Watching her grow in confidence, learn new skills, and build such beautiful relationships has been incredible, and that’s a true reflection of the amazing team. The communication with families is always fantastic, and it’s clear how much the educators genuinely care about each child.<br><br>As a mum, there is no greater comfort than dropping your child off knowing they are loved and well cared for. Thank you to the entire team for everything you do. We are so grateful to be part of such a wonderful centre.

It truly takes a village to raise a child, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found ours. ❤️ Every morning we leave knowing our little one is not just cared for, but genuinely loved, encouraged, and celebrated. The smiles, cuddles, creativity, and endless patience from the educators have helped our child blossom in ways we never imagined. Thank you for being our child’s happy place—and for giving us peace of mind every single day. We couldn’t ask for a better start to their journey.<br><br>Seeing our little one run through the doors each morning with excitement and come home happy, confident, and full of stories gives us complete peace of mind. As parents, there’s no greater feeling than knowing your child is safe, valued, and truly belongs. That’s what makes this place so special to our family.

Dilani and Saranya have truly stood out and made such a difference for our daughter. They have both been there since day one and have played such an important role in helping her feel safe, comfortable and loved at Birches.<br>From the very beginning, they have always been so excited to see her, taken the time to listen to our needs as a family, and followed through with so much care and dedication. They have supported her growth, encouraged her learning, and made every transition so much easier.<br>Knowing she has educators who will cuddle her when I leave, comfort her when she needs it, and always be there for her means the world to us as parents. The genuine connection they have built with her is something we are incredibly grateful for.<br>Thank you Dilani and Saranya and the team who make up Birches for helping make Birches such a special place for our daughter and our family.
