Clean hands and big hearts: How Early Learning Services is handling COVID-19

As we continue to navigate ‘the new normal’, the health and safety of Early Learning Services families and team members remain our highest priority.

We understand that information, kindness and support are currently essential in keeping all children, families and teams feeling reassured. Below, you’ll find a number of resources to help at this time.

Enrolling across centres

We are welcoming bookings at our centres to cater to your full requirements and establish our close connections with families.

We do understand that the COVID-19 situation has resulted in a challenging economic climate for our country, and we know some families may require assistance regarding understanding the options available to them.

Our ultimate purpose is to ensure all our families have all the tools and information at their disposal to feel confident in their children’s continued journey in early childhood education. Click here to read our guide to the Child Care Subsidy and feel free to contact us to discuss your options.

Families also are encouraged to contact their Centre Manager with help regarding the easing of the activity test, the Additional Child Care Subsidy, our Flexible Hours program and more.

Test results show that Zoono’s Z-71 Microbe Shield (the same Zoono technology used in Zoono Hand Sanitiser) is > 99.99% effective against feline coronavirus (the recognised surrogate for COVID-19).

We are proud of our reviews

"My daughter has been attending this service Full time for the past year and I cannot thank the Educators and Management enough. I’m overwhelmed with level of education and care my daughter receives each day. I travel 30 minutes each day just to bring my daughter to this service and although it would be easier to move closer to home I just cannot imagine finding high quality care like this else where."
