Only About Children (OAC) South Melbourne Childcare and Kindergarten is celebrating ‘a decade of success’ after recently being assessed and rated as Exceeding the National Quality Standard (NQS) for the third time in ten years. 

“For ten years, we’ve been part of this wonderful community, embraced by so many families entrusting us with their children,” Director of Only About Children South Melbourne, Le Anne Rowland said.

“We understand the importance of the trust placed in us to care for their little ones, and it’s been an incredible journey, one filled with love, laughter, and many cherished moments.

“We’re excited to continue this journey alongside new families, sharing the journey of raising the next generation.”

OAC, owned by global early childhood education and care (ECEC) provider Bright Horizons, operates more than 80 campuses across Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane and provides education and care to over 8,000 families, employing more than 2,000 people.

“In a landscape where maintaining excellence in early education and care is a considerable achievement, OAC South Melbourne’s impressive ten-year track record highlights their commitment to supporting the education and nurturing of children from families in the community,” an OAC representative said.

The authorised officer made a special acknowledgement to the campus for their project work around Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Inclusion helping the next generation understand and celebrate Australia’s First Peoples rich history and cultures.
