Children First Early Education Cranbrook

Welcome to Cranbrook

We are excited to announce that our beautiful new childcare centre, Children First Cranbrook is now open! We have designed our centre to provide the Townsville community with quality childcare and early education to support children on their learning journey.

Our vision for Children First Cranbrook is that children always come first. All our decision making is centred around ensuring the needs, development, and wellbeing of the child is always our first priority.

Our purpose-built centre will cater for 100 children from 6 weeks to school age, across six spacious, modern classrooms designed specifically for each age group: Nursery, Tiny Tots, Toddlers, Junior Kindy, Pre-Kindy and Kindergarten.

Our modern classrooms are equipped with high quality, natural educational resources, chosen to complement our curriculum and support your child’s learning journey. Within our classrooms, you will discover smaller spaces designed to make children feel secure and truly at home, including home corner, reading nooks, art studio spaces, floor & table activities and other inspiring play zones. These carefully curated spaces foster meaningful interactions between our children and Educators, promoting quality engagement and learning experiences.

At Children First, we believe that children learn best through play. We hand-pick all the resources in our classrooms to ensure they complement our curriculum, build on your child’s interests and development, and enhance their learning experience.

The large outdoor area at Cranbrook provides children with the space for big movements like running, jumping, kicking and throwing, which is very important for fitness and physical development. From sandpits and bike tracks, to custom adventure forts and vegetable gardens - your little one is going to have so much fun exploring and playing in our beautiful outdoor playscapes.

Located on Ross River Road, our long day care centre is located only 3 mins drive from Stockland Townsville Shopping Centre. We are also located near Holy Spirit Catholic Primary School, Cranbrook State School, Aitkenvale State School and Heatley Primary School. Our centre provides convenience for families with plenty of onsite carparking for drop-off and pick-up.
