Welcome!
Bolton Point Child Care Centre is a non profit 42 place long day care centre, operating in the local community since 1987. We care and educate children from 8 weeks to 6 years of age and operate Monday to Friday 48 weeks of the year Monday to Friday 7:30am – 5:30pm.
Being community based you can be assured that all funds raised stay within the centre. We aim to keep the fees at an affordable rate while also keeping our centre well maintained and resourced for families who attend the centre.
We pride ourselves on having small groups of children within each room which gives educators the opportunity to develop positive relationships with the children. This promotes opportunities for the children to develop more confidence and settle in quickly into their new environment. Throughout the day the children engage in mixed aged play which also provides them with time to spend with other siblings and friends in the centre.

Curriculum
Bolton Point Child Care Centre provides a play-based educational program guided by the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) V2.0 – Belonging, Being and Becoming.
We value both spontaneous learning opportunities and intentional teaching experiences that help children develop important life skills, including road safety, fire safety, health and nutrition, sustainability, and personal safety awareness.
Families can share in their child’s learning journey through our daily journals and scrapbooks, which are available in each room.
Belonging
Belonging is about children feeling accepted, valued, and connected to their family, community, and the people around them. Positive relationships help children develop a strong sense of identity, security, and confidence, supporting their learning and wellbeing both now and throughout their lives.
Being
Being recognises the importance of the here and now in children’s lives. It is about children knowing themselves, building and maintaining relationships with others, engaging with life’s joys and challenges, and making sense of the world around them.
Becoming
Becoming reflects the rapid and significant changes that occur in early childhood. As children grow, their identities, understandings, skills, and relationships develop through their experiences and interactions. It highlights children learning to actively participate in their world.
