Before School Care

A calmer start to the school day.

Morning care can be simple, settled and personal — a familiar place to begin the day while families manage work and school.

About the service

Before School Care gives school-age children a welcoming start before classes begin, with care provided through qualified family day care educators in home-like environments.

A family-home environment can offer a smaller-scale setting before the school day begins. Children arrive into a small group and a familiar space, with time to settle, play or simply be quiet before the school day starts. For some children, a calmer environment can help the transition into the school day feel more settled.

Educator operating hours vary depending on the individual educator and each family’s care requirements, so morning arrangements are worked out with you rather than assumed. Talk with our team about school drop-off arrangements available through your educator.

A small group and a familiar face before school.

Before school is a short window. Our approach to it is the same as the rest of our care: a qualified educator, a small group and a home environment, with care arrangements discussed around your family’s requirements and educator availability.
