Description We are Australia's largest early learning provider, caring for children from birth to five years and ensuring they have the learning, development and well-being outcomes they need for school and life. We're not-for-profit and entirely Australian owned, so you can be confident children - not shareholders - are our first priority.

We have more than 650 early learning centres across Australia, employing over 15,000 people.

With over 15 years of experience in early childhood education across Sydney and the Illawarra region, our mission is to provide high-quality care and learning for children aged six weeks to six years.
