Our child care centre is centrally located near public transport (train, buses and Metro) and we also have safe underground parking for families to utilise to assist with drop off and pick up.
From the moment you step through our doors at Greenwood Chatswood, you’ll be immersed in a world where children are encouraged to explore and learn. Our adventure-filled playgrounds feature rainbow bike tracks, sandpits, veggie gardens, a cubby house, a slide, a water play area and other learning resources for endless play opportunities.
We have two very spacious outdoor areas which is complemented by our beautiful secret garden which has lots of different plants, vegetables and herbs that can be used by our chef in his daily cooking or for families to take home.
Children are provided time and space for uninterrupted play as they explore the outdoors to test their limits and develop strength, balance, and self-confidence. Being outside supports children’s overall health and wellbeing.
Our kitchen is at the heart of everything we do. Healthy, freshly made meals and snacks are created daily by our qualified chef, catering for all dietary requirements. Shared mealtimes between children and educators strengthen relationships, with opportunities to share stories and experiences, and model healthy eating practices.
As part of our schedule of engaging specialised programs, your child will have access to sports, yoga, music and movement, and French classes. These fun and engaging programs enhance the daily program.
Throughout the year we welcome special guests and community members to the centre based on the children's interests. We also venture out on regular excursions exploring our local community visiting the Chatswood Library, Westfield Chatswood, the Chatswood Train Station and more.
As a smaller boutique centre wehave a great sense of community with our families and educators. We host various centre events and celebrations each year with our families and children where we embrace regular cultural events reflecting diversity in our local community.
As members of our Greenwood community, we look forward to partnering with you to provide information, support, and high-quality education and care in your child’s formative years.

Every day is a different adventure with children, but there are some key elements that make your child’s time so enjoyable at Greenwood Early Education Centres.
Scroll through the below to see what a typical day might look like.
Experience a sense of belonging as you are welcomed by our friendly centre teams. On arrival, share information about your child’s specific needs for the day. Our experienced educators will support you and your child with the morning transition from home to centre.
Infants are held in educators’ arms for feeding. Bottle feeding with educators or breastfeeding with Mum provides one-on-one time for connection, talking gently and responding to baby’s cues. Everyday routines provide opportunities to strengthen relationships and build language skills through songs, games, and conversations.
As your child plays, they develop dispositions for learning including curiosity, problem-solving, confidence and resilience. Educators plan play-based learning experiences around children’s interests and learning goals. Play-based learning supports all areas of children’s development, including language and motor movement, memory, concentration, emotions, and social relationships.
Sleep, rest and relaxation routines match your child’s individual needs. Effective sleep practices help children feel safe and secure to support better sleep. Opportunities for rest and relaxation are always available across the day. Play-based learning experiences are provided for older children who don’t sleep.
Experience a sense of satisfaction that your child has enjoyed and benefited from their day at the centre. As you prepare to head home, speak with our friendly educators about your child’s learning and experiences across the day. We look forward to welcoming you back tomorrow.
