Greenwood Katoomba

See where the extraordinary happens at Greenwood Katoomba. Our long daycare and early learning centre offers child care in Katoomba which is ideally located for families living or commuting through Katoomba or the upper Blue Mountains. We are located a short walk to Katoomba town centre and Katoomba train station.

From the time you enter our centre, you’ll be engaged in a world where children are encouraged to discover, learn and grow.

Your little one will love exploring our adventure-filled playgrounds featuring large outdoor play environments with a jumping pillow, cubby houses, sandpits, chickens and a vegetable garden. Your children will love caring for our chickens and rabbit and tending to our expansive garden. Being outside supports children’s overall health and wellbeing.

Greenwood continues to build connections with the local community through excursions and links to the local Aboriginal community and local support services. Neighbourhood connections support a sense of community and belonging for children and provide opportunities to develop social and observational skills with different people, places, and environments.

Our indoor spaces invite exploration with quality resources and learning experiences. Children wonder, create, and test out their ideas as they play with a range of materials in purposeful play spaces that promote the natural elements of the Blue Mountains. Our experienced educators plan play-based learning experiences around children’s interests and learning goals.

Our kitchen is at the centre of everything we do. Nourishing meals and snacks are created each day by our in-house cook, catering for all dietary requirements. Our qualified chef conducts cooking classes with the children regularly and delivers a hot breakfast, coffee, hot chocolate and tea each morning for your family to take on the run. Shared mealtimes between children and educators strengthen relationships, with opportunities to share stories and experiences, and model healthy eating practices.

Your child will enjoy a rotating schedule of specialised programs including yoga, sports and an African experience. These fun and engaging programs enhance the daily program. We are always looking at new programs for our children to participate in.

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.
