Quality early education is the foundation upon which lifelong learning and development are built. At Bay of Wonders, we believe that each child is born to shine, and it is our mission to nurture and prepare them to become active, confident and compassionate members of the community. Just a 4-minute drive from Carlton via Park Rd, Bay of Wonders is more than just a place for childcare; it is a vibrant and nurturing environment where children are encouraged to explore, learn and grow.

Holistic Learning and Development

We offer a wide range of activities designed to support the holistic development of every child. Our children’s yoga and mindfulness classes promote physical health and emotional well-being. Monthly events foster a sense of community and excitement, while our purpose-designed playrooms and two separate playgrounds, filled with natural light, stimulate creativity and physical development.

A Culinary Journey for Little Taste Buds

Our Mediterranean-inspired menu, crafted by our qualified chef, offers five nutritious meals a day using a range of seasonal ingredients from our very own garden. We take pride in serving wholesome and delicious meals that cater to the diverse tastes and nutritional needs of young children, ensuring they have the energy and vitality to engage in daily activities.

Comprehensive Care and Comfort

At Bay of Wonders, we provide everything your child needs for a comfortable and enjoyable day. Our comprehensive care package includes a hat, nappies, wipes, bed linen, bibs, Cancer Council sunscreen, Pawpaw ointment and Sudocrem. With these essentials provided, parents can have peace of mind knowing their children are well cared for.

State-of-the-Art Security and Professional Expertise

Safety is paramount at Bay of Wonders. Our state-of-the-art security system includes CCTV visual and audio monitoring and card readers for room access, ensuring a secure environment for all. Our Pre School Room is led by a university-qualified teacher and our support squad, including an optometrist, speech therapist, dentist and occupational therapist, provides annual check-ups to support each child’s development.
