Hampton Childcare & Kindergarten

At Only About Children Hampton, we have a large natural yard with gorgeous trees for Kinder and toddler aged children to enjoy. Our children love the bike track, vegetable garden, lemon trees, and outdoor dining area. Our Hampton childcare centre has a separate yard for our Nursery children, with a large oak tree providing shade on hot days. Our three age-based rooms have been designed, with natural elements, to safely encourage children in their learning and growth. We have an open-door policy, meaning the children can choose to be inside or outside and are free to visit their siblings in other rooms. We enjoy our connection with the local community. Our excursions and community activities are based around the children’s interests and learning. At Only About Children childcare Hampton, this means regular excursions to surrounding parks, shopping for our monthly fruit and vegetables at Coles and weekly visits to our local Aged Care Facility, where the children have strong connections with the residents. 

With a team of qualified and passionate Educators, your child will find an early learning environment where they feel safe, nurtured, stimulated and happy.
