Join Our Little Centre Family in the Heart of Oakey

We are a small, family‑owned and operated early childhood centre located right in the heart of Oakey — just 30 minutes from Toowoomba. Our close‑knit team prides itself on providing high‑quality care in a warm, community‑focused environment where every child is truly known, valued, and supported.

With small class sizes (maximum of 16 children per room), our educators have the time and space to build meaningful relationships and deliver thoughtful, child‑led learning experiences.

Our centre is uniquely attached to the Oakey Indoor Sports Centre, giving children access to a large indoor movement space all year round — rain, hail, or shine. Outdoors, we offer natural play environments and two spacious covered verandahs that support exploration, creativity, and active play.

If this sounds like the kind of place where you’d love to grow your career and feel part of a genuine centre family…
