We create a community-focused, homely and nurturing environment where children and families feel calm, welcomed and deeply supported. Our passionate educators build genuine relationships with every child and family, creating a true home away from home. From fortnightly Peaceful Minds incursions to Bush Kinder and swimming with JUMP!, we offer a rich and thoughtful approach to early childhood education.
Your child’s safety and wellbeing are our highest priority at Journey Early Learning Whittlesea. Our childcare centre maintains a zero-tolerance approach to harm, with strong safeguarding and child protection practices embedded into everyday learning and care.
Our educators are trained in the See, Act, Tell framework, helping create a safe, supportive and nurturing early learning environment where every child feels protected, respected and heard.
Our purpose-designed early learning environments support children through every stage of their childcare and kindergarten journey, encouraging confidence, exploration and school readiness.

The Child Care Subsidy (CCS) can help reduce your childcare fees and make high-quality early learning more affordable for families. Use our Child Care Subsidy Calculator to estimate your subsidy and explore flexible long daycare and kindergarten options at Journey Early Learning.
A message from your Centre Manager
I have worked in the early childhood education sector for 17 years, including seven years in leadership and management roles. I am passionate about creating a safe, welcoming and inclusive environment where children feel secure, families feel supported and educators feel valued.
I strongly believe in building genuine relationships with families and the wider community, as these connections help children thrive and develop a strong sense of belonging. I am also a proud mum to four children, which gives me both a professional and personal understanding of how important trust, communication and quality care are for families. I am committed to ensuring every child in our service feels happy, confident and supported each day they attend. I hope to see you in our centre soon!
