At Central Park Early Learning Centre, we are a small, family-run service with a big heart—now proudly under new management since mid 2025. As parents ourselves, with our own daughter attending the centre, we understand just how important it is to feel trust, comfort, and genuine care in your child’s day-to-day environment.
Within our family team, David takes on the administrative and financial responsibilities to keep everything running smoothly in the background, while Tina focuses on the children, their wellbeing, and the nurturing moments that shape their early years. Since taking over the centre this year, we’ve poured our love, time, and attention into creating a warm, gentle space where every child feels safe, valued, and truly known.
Families have shared so much positive feedback about the changes we’ve introduced since taking over the centre. Their encouragement means the world to us and reinforces that our personal, hands-on approach is making a real difference. Central Park is more than a childcare service—it’s a family, a community, and a home where children are welcomed with warmth and care every single day.
Our vision is to continue building a centre that grows stronger every year—one where quality, consistency, and genuine family partnership remain at the heart of everything we do. We aim to set a new standard for early education in our community by continually improving our practices, enhancing our environments, and investing in our team.
We aspire to create a future where every child who walks through our doors feels confident, capable, and excited to learn, and where families feel truly supported throughout their childcare journey. As we evolve, our vision is to remain a centre that families trust, educators thrive in, and children love to be a part of.
Our philosophy is grounded in providing children with a calm, respectful, and enriching environment where they feel secure to explore, learn, and grow at their own pace. We believe that every child is capable, curious, and full of potential—and it’s our role to nurture that potential through meaningful relationships and intentional teaching.
We value play as the foundation of early learning. Through play-based experiences, children develop confidence, problem-solving skills, independence, and a strong sense of belonging. We support each child as an individual, acknowledging their unique strengths, interests, and cultural backgrounds.
Collaboration with families is central to our approach. We see parents as partners and believe that open communication, trust, and genuine connection create the best outcomes for children. By working together, we build a community that supports not only children’s development, but their wellbeing and happiness.
Our team is made up of dedicated, qualified, and passionate educators who bring warmth, professionalism, and heart to the centre every day. With a mix of Certificate III, Diploma and Bachelor Degree trained staff, we ensure children are supported by educators who understand early childhood development and who genuinely care about each child in their care.
We value stability and consistency, so our team focuses on building strong, trusting relationships with children and families. Every educator plays an important role—guiding learning, supporting emotional wellbeing, and creating a safe, positive environment where children feel seen, heard, and valued.
Together, we work as a united team to deliver high-quality, play-based learning experiences that nurture confidence, curiosity, and a lifelong love of learning. Our educators are not just staff members—they’re part of the Central Park family.
