Looking for the most caring Early Learning Centre for Your Child?

Day One Early Learning Centres really are different. Our family owned and operated boutique early learning centres offer more than just great early education and care at affordable rates.

We take pride in creating homely environments filled with love, fun and learning.

We deliberately keep our centres small so that you and your child become part of our Day One family from day one.

We are passionate about providing your child with the tools they need to be successful in all aspects of their lives.

We combine our strong curriculum and a safe, stimulating environment to create meaningful experiences for your child every day.

Our Day One “World Explorers” program provides safe and rewarding excursions to all age groups.

We can’t wait to welcome you and your child to the Day One family!

Finding the right early learning centre for your little one can be stressful

You can choose Day One with confidence, we have the experience, quality educators and a first class curriculum to teach, encourage and inspire your little one.

Homely Environment

Homely Environment

Each of our centres is unique but they all quickly become your child’s home-away-from-home. At Day One, we understand that children learn best in a space where they feel happy and safe. With highly engaging spaces to learn, explore and unwind, our learning environments spark curiosity and confidence.

Kindergarten Program

Kindergarten Program

It is our great privilege to be instrumental in preparing your child to be a calm, confident and curious learner, ready to successfully transition to school. The Kindergarten Program includes informative Parent Evenings because we understand the transition to school is also a big step for parents!

Beautiful Outdoor Area

Beautiful Outdoor Area

At every Day One centre, you will discover large, shaded outdoor playscapes that have been custom-designed with input from our children and families to provide highly engaging areas ready for daily adventures. These can include sand and water play zones, bike tracks, climbing equipment, interactive garden beds, cosy spaces for reading, and lots of space for all children to explore.

DO Curriculum

DO Curriculum

We have developed a number of bespoke Day One educational programs to prepare children for the opportunities and challenges of life beyond Day One. Our programs are incorporated into your child’s daily routine at Day One and are guided by their own interests. The DO Programs include DO Social, DO Health, DO Language, DO Knowledge, DO Creative, DO Planet and DO Kindy.

Excursions For All Ages

Excursions For All Ages

Day One World Explorers are often seen out and about exploring the community and environment in which we live. This includes everyone, from babies through to kindergarten. We encourage parents to participate in these excursions where possible too. The real benefit of excursions is that they provide real-life experiences that cannot be replicated in our centres or even at home.

Community Engagement

Community Engagement

Engaging in our local communities plays a paramount role in supporting children to develop feelings of belonging and security. Additionally, as children grow and develop, authentic relationships with the outer world helps them to find their place and leads them to understand shared values and how society works.

They have such a loving feeling towards families. When we did our walk through, the director hit every point and then asked if we had question. Our question? When can she start? We knew this was going to be a great fit for our daughter, and even better was they do before & after school care which our older children have done with them. The kids think it's great. Our kids have made great connections with the staff there and we look forward to the rest of our journey with them.

    Thanks for everything you do for the kids at the centre

The Director at DayOne is always helpful and is approachable when you have an issue or a request regarding your child/children. Each educator at DayOne Mission beach have their own positive connection with each individual child and I have noticed this based on my own observations with my 2 boys. In my children's time at DayOne so far, I have also noticed that arriving and leaving the centre, they are happy every day. This centre is beyond fantastic and have an awesome learning program within their facility. On top of that, they have made the kids more excited by adding swimming lessons at the town pool and have gotten a bus of their own to go on more excursions to make it more exciting for the kids!!! I honestly don't have enough words to describe to you how much I highly recommend DayOne ELC Mission beach. So, if you decide to send your kids here, I promise you, you will NOT regret your decision in doing so! DayOne ELC Mission beach is.... THE BEST!!!

    Yours sincerely, Rosie Murgha

    Spent a long time searching for the right centre for my son before I went back to work.
    He’s been going for about 4 months now and I am happy with the service and care my son receives. The communication with anything I had been unsure about has been great, and eased all of my concerns.

    My child has attended day one for 6 years now and I can not fault them. He loves going to the centre and I struggle to get him leave in the afternoons. The educators are brilliant at showing the kids how to be caring, respectful and allow them to grow into their own independence.

    The educators are warm and friendly and always go out of their way to ensure my children are happy and engaged in fun and playful activities. The DO programs, particularly in the Kindergarten Room have set my children up for a smooth transition to school. We only left as we moved out of the area, but cannot recommend highly enough!

I checked out Day One Morayfield and I was presently surprised by what I found with staff talking to children beautifully and actually being involved with them. My daughter is really sensitive and is scared of new people but she was made to feel welcomed and has instantly warmed to the educators! My only issue is that it's now really hard for us to leave because she never wants to go home! All of the staff are friendly, caring and take pride in their jobs and smiles for days. I highly recommend Day One Morayfield and if you value quality care of your most prized possession, then do yourself a favour and check them out! read less
