Tranby College Childcare 17 Tranby Drive, Baldivis, Western Australia 6171

Welcome to Tranby College Childcare, located in Baldivis, Australia. We understand that every child is unique and that their early years play a crucial role in shaping their future. At Tranby College Childcare, we are dedicated to supporting, challenging, and encouraging our children to reach their full potential. By building a strong foundation in their early years, we set them up for lifelong success.

Our approach to early childhood education is guided by the Early Years Learning and National Quality Frameworks, as well as the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. We offer play-based learning experiences that are tailored to each child's interests, allowing them to safely explore and understand the world around them. We strongly believe in the importance of parental involvement and encourage parents, guardians, and family members to actively contribute to their child's learning through continuous communication, feedback, support opportunities, and our open-door policy.

To meet the growing demand for early childhood facilities in our community, we are excited to announce that construction has begun on our new childcare center. This state-of-the-art facility will offer 150 places, ensuring that more families in Baldivis and its surrounding areas have access to high-quality childcare.

Our not-for-profit Childcare Centre provides Long Day Care services for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years and Out-of-School Hours Care for school children up to 12 years old. Our center is divided into three distinct areas for babies, toddlers, and pre-schoolers/kindy children, allowing us to provide tailored programs and experiences that stimulate and develop each child's social, emotional, physical, cognitive, and language needs.

We understand the importance of nutrition in a child's development. That's why we offer morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, and a late snack, with nutritionally balanced menus that change weekly. We are also able to accommodate special dietary requirements upon arrangement.

Our Out-of-School Hours Care program includes Before and After School Care, as well as Vacation Care during school holidays. Before and After School Care provides a safe and engaging environment where children can participate in various activities such as arts, construction, drama, games, physical play, reading, and homework support. Our Vacation Care programs vary each holiday and include exciting excursions, incursions, and fun activities like dress-up days, outings to local attractions, craft, cooking, science experiments, and sporting competitions. We highly recommend booking Vacation Care early, as vacancies fill up quickly.

For enrolled children, we have a fee structure in place. Eligible families may qualify for Government assistance to reduce these fees.

We invite you and your family to visit our Childcare Centre at any time during our opening hours. No appointment is necessary. Please note that we are closed on public holidays and for two weeks during the Christmas holiday period.

Our opening hours are as follows:

- Long Day Care: 6:30am – 6:00pm

- Before School Care: 6:30am – 9:00am

- After School Care: 2:30pm – 6:00pm

If you have any questions or would like to secure your child's place, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us. We look forward to welcoming you and your child to Tranby College Childcare, where we believe in nurturing the potential of every child.
