About our Centres
Northside manages four Early Childhood Centres located in Civic, Dickson, Turner and the newly opened centre in Harrison. Harrison currently has pre-school vacancies (3yrs - 5yrs of age).
The Civic and Dickson Centres offer a combination of long day care and casual care. The Turner and Harrison Centres offer long day care only. All Centres offer access to the Commonwealth Government’s Child Care Benefit, in addition to the Childcare Rebate.
In each of our Centres we are committed to providing a high standard of care in a safe and supportive environment that caters to your child’s developmental needs. We respect each child's independent spirit and their family’s individuality and, through their time with us, seek to enhance each child’s cognitive, emotional, social, physical, language and hygiene development.
In pursuit of excellence in child care, we employ a comprehensive quality assurance process that includes participation in the National Childcare Accreditation system http://www.ncac.gov.au/. In addition, we provide a comprehensive formal training program for our staff in the following qualifications: Certificate 3 and Diploma in Children’s Services and Bachelor of Early Education via Charles Sturt University.
