          Elder Street                                       EARLY CHILDHOOD CENTRE

 Introduction 

 

We welcome you and your child to Elder Street Early Childhood Centre (EECC).  EECC is a 39 place Long Day Care Centre, catering for children between the ages of 6 weeks and school age.  EECC is owned and operated by Melissa Duffy-Fagan. 

Elder Street Early Childhood Centre was opened in August 2002 as Blinky Bill Child Care. Melissa and her husband Tony purchased the business in December 2004 and it was from then known as Elder Street Early Childhood Centre.  The centre’s building although not a purpose built centre has been fully renovated to meet the needs of all children, parents and staff.  Some of the many features of the centre are 3 play rooms,  an extensive selection of toys, books, age appropriate equipment and a fully ducted reverse cycle air conditioning system.  All play room floors are practical vinyl or floor boards with mats for comfort and toilet/nappy change facilities are provided.  We also have two lovely outdoor play areas with ample shade and space for the children to explore and engage in outdoor fun.
