Leading Edge Childcare is focused on ensuring each child has the opportunity to explore and develop their own identity through play based learning.

To realise the potential of all children, our service provides a nurturing, secure and stimulating learning environment, one that promotes happiness and a strong desire to learn. The primary aim is for children to increase their understanding of the world in which they live through development of broadly based knowledge, skills and attitudes that enable them to take the prerequisite steps in preparation for lifelong learning.

Our passionate and qualified educators design, implement and evaluate innovative and challenging programs that reflect the most contemporary early childhood theory and research that is guided by the Early Years Learning Framework.

We believe that working closely, and building partnerships with families is vital, so children feel like we are an extension of their family home. We acknowledge family values and beliefs which welcomes diversity into our program.

Leading Edge Childcare Stratford is a purpose-built childcare service that opened in May  2024. The service is licenced for 72 children per day aged between 6 weeks and 12 years and is open 6:30am-6:30pm, 52 weeks of the year. The service only closes on gazetted QLD public holidays.

The service itself contains four spacious studios that are well-equipped with resources for each age and stage of development. Each studio also has its own adjoining outdoor play space with elements suitable to the age of the studio and to support gross motor development.
