About the organisation

Swinburne Children’s Centre is a community based, for purpose organisation offering Early Childhood Education and Care services in the Eastern suburbs of Melbourne for over 20 years.

With 120 employees across our four services and our head office in Croydon, we are committed to enabling our children to be the best versions of themselves, helping our families connect, operating as a successful business and keeping our workforce engaged and connected.

Our View Street service is small and inclusive, currently operating with three rooms. It is a community-oriented centre which was rated Exceeding in our 2021 Assessment and Rating visit.

View Street’s philosophy believes in ensuring that children are visible and active in our community. Ensuring that our youngest citizens are seen and heard supports a genuine sense of equality and shared civic responsibility.
