About Great Beginnings Berwick

We are conveniently located for families in or commuting through Berwick and nearby suburbs Clyde North and Cranbourne North. 

We offer nurturing care and quality early education for children from 6 weeks to 6 years, with flexible hours (9, 10, 11, and 12-hour sessions) to suit busy families.

Our Learning Environments

Our children benefit from familiar faces as they grow, creating a sense of continuity:

  • Nursery (0-2 years): A safe, nurturing environment for babies to explore with tailored sensory and social experiences.
  • Toddler (2-3 years): Play-based learning encourages curiosity, confidence, and social skills.
  • Kindergarten (3-6 years): A stimulating learning environment that prepares our children for school through our Enhanced Learning Program.

We’re proud to have qualified teachers and educators, supported by a team of national education experts, ensuring the highest quality childcare and early education.

Innovative Early Learning Programs

Our teachers deliver the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF or the national curriculum) through play-based learning that covers language, literacy, numeracy, STEM, social, and emotional development. Our program also includes:

  • Rhythm and Movement for Self-Regulation (RAMSR), an evidence-based program developed by Queensland University of Technology to support children’s executive function and self-regulation.
  • Environmental and social sustainability learning experiences.
  • Personalised learning plans for each child.
  • Local school connections.

We focus on strong family partnerships through regular learning and development conversations with your child’s lead educator, learning showcases, and in-centre family events. Our Xplor app provides real-time updates and learning summaries daily to keep you informed on your child’s journey.

We have a neurodivergent child and the team at great beginnings berwick have been sensational. When she first started daycare she was non-verbal and the team really rallied together to understand her cues and ensure she felt safe and cared for. Fast forward 2 years and she is thriving in their kinder program. They have secured KIS funding for her and every team member is caring and kind towards her. Her speech has developed leaps and bounds and I owe it to the wonderful educators, many of which have an interest or have done additional study in regards to neurodivergent children. I highly recommend this centre. If my non-verbal neurodivergent child has been able to thrive, so will your child.

Response from the owner25 days ago

Hi Anna, Thank you so much for your beautiful and heartfelt feedback. It truly means a lot to our team to hear how supported your daughter and family have felt over the past two years. We’re so pleased to know your daughter has thrived in our environment and that the care, understanding and dedication from our educators have helped support her growth and development. Watching children build confidence and flourish in their own way is incredibly special to us. Thank you again for your trust and recommendation. We feel very grateful to be part of your daughter’s journey. Kind regards, The Great Beginnings Berwick team
