Outdoor play, friendly animals, and a holistic approach to learning come together at our early learning centre in Ballajura, to create an engaging learning experience.

At MercyCare Early Learning Ballajura we pride ourselves on providing a safe, secure, and enriching daycare environment designed to help your child thrive. Our experienced, professional, and close-knit team is dedicated to providing the best possible care for your child.

Nature is a significant part of each day at our Ballajura centre. We have expansive outdoor spaces, beautiful shady trees, nature-based play areas, and a vegetable garden; all encouraging fun, exploration, and a love for the planet from a very young age.

Additionally your child can learn the importance of caring for animals, sustainability, and different ways to be self-sufficient through tending to the chickens, quinea pigs, and fish.

The centre also features a yarning circle where children experience an Acknowledgement of Country each morning and our home-like indoor environments are warm and inviting with modern amenities.

Manager

Kelly

As a dedicated educator and mother of four, I’ve experienced both sides of the fence when it comes to navigating the best care for your child. The experience has made me all the more passionate about nurturing a sense of community at Ballajura.

I’m inspired by the ecological systems theory, which places emphasis on the people and environment around children, helping to share their development. Beautiful play spaces like ours at Ballajura bring a sense of calm and wonderful opportunities for exploration for the children.

Over the years I have loved building the special relationships we share with the families and childre. I feel it is important to embrace each family’s uniqueness and learn from the wonderful diversity among families.

Before taking the manager role at Ballajura I was at MercyCare Landsdale for 16 years after starting in early childhood education in 2003.

I have a Diploma in Children’s Services and have completed an Early Childhood Teacher degree.

What our parents say about us

Both my girls have attended MercyCare Ballajura and I can’t recommend them highly enough. Proactive and attentive team, fantastic facilities, great communication, activities, food etc. They gave both my daughters a real head-start into Kindy. A lot of the team that was there when we started attending nearly seven years ago are still there, which says a lot for how great the place is

The staff are always wonderful and attentive and they helped my kids to express themselves as individuals. I know my children feel safe, secure and happy in a nurturing environment. The staff always make me feel that my kids are also very special to them. I couldn’t recommend them enough. They have made me feel comfortable and confident leaving my children there as I know they always get the individual attention they need

My daughter goes here and all the staff made the process of her settling in amazing and put my mind at ease. Love all the updates throughout the day. She loves going here and to see her social, educational and interaction skills improve has been a highlight.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you to all the girls in the baby room, you have made the daunting feeling of leaving your child such a pleasant experience.
The loving updates throughout the day with her big smile gives me so much happiness to know I can get all my uni work done and not have the Mum guilt because I know she’s in the best hands. I love the bond she has created with each-and-every one of you.

I’d just like to say a big thank you to the centre. You know when a child is happy at his daycare when he asks on holidays if he can go back to daycare soon!
Preston also tells me he would like to invite all his teachers to his birthday party, you ladies are like family to him. Thank you for all your hard work, I know it’s not easy some days, but you all put in so much effort and keep smiling no matter what.

The baby room educators are always so welcoming, making the effort to put children at ease as soon as they arrive. They take on any update I provide regarding my child and incorporate it straight away into the work they do – which makes things much easier for his transition between daycare and home. Nothing is ever too much, they are all so willing to help.
