Welcome to Aussie Kindies Early Learning Bacchus Marsh
Located at 59–63 Grey Street, Darley, our centre provides quality early education and care for children aged 0–5 years, Monday to Friday from 6:30am to 6:30pm.
At Aussie Kindies Bacchus Marsh, we’re proud to offer a warm, welcoming, and family-focused environment where every child feels safe, supported, and ready to thrive. Our passionate educators — some of whom have been part of our team for over 10 years — are dedicated to creating meaningful learning experiences tailored to each child’s unique journey.
Children enjoy a balanced day of play and learning in our vibrant indoor and outdoor spaces, with plenty of time to explore, make friends, and grow in confidence. We offer fun music and sport classes, delicious meals prepared fresh onsite, and a focus on sustainability through simple, everyday practices like recycling.
We also have a strong connection with Darley Primary School, supporting children as they prepare for the transition to big school. Most importantly, we put health, safety, and emotional wellbeing at the heart of everything we do.
We’d love to welcome your family. Call 1800 244 532 to book a tour and discover why so many local families choose Aussie Kindies Bacchus Marsh for their child’s early learning journey.

Meet Our Team
Welcome to Aussie Kindies Early Learning Bacchus Marsh. My name is Carrie Wood, and I’m proud to be the Centre Manager here. With over 18 years of experience in Early Childhood Education and Care, including 12 wonderful years with Aussie Kindies, I bring a deep passion for nurturing young minds during their most formative years.
I hold a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and a Certificate IV in Leadership and Management, and I’m committed to supporting our team of dedicated educators to deliver high-quality learning experiences. I truly believe that the first five years of a child’s life are magical, and being part of that journey is a privilege.
At our centre, we value strong partnerships with families, recognising that you are your child’s first and most influential teacher. Together, we can create meaningful learning outcomes and a warm, welcoming environment where every child thrives.
We can’t wait to welcome you into our centre family!
Everything You Need, All in One Place
Starting childcare comes with lots of questions - from how much it costs and how to apply for the Child Care Subsidy, to what to pack, what’s on the menu, and how we’ll stay in touch each day. We’ve put everything in one place to make things easier for families. Visit our For Families page for simple, helpful info no matter where you are on your childcare journey.
Start Your Child’s Learning Journey with Us
Every child at Aussie Kindies is supported by our Lifelong Learning Curriculum - a nationally recognised early education program designed to meet your child’s needs at every stage, from babyhood through to school readiness. It’s nurturing, play-based and grounded in the latest early childhood research. Each stage supports development in communication, creativity, confidence and emotional wellbeing.
Nurturing Growth from 0–5 Years
At Aussie Kindies, we offer more than just childcare - we provide quality early education in a warm, welcoming environment for children aged 0–5 years. With caring educators, age-appropriate learning programs, and a strong focus on emotional wellbeing, we help your child grow in confidence and curiosity.
Babies (0-1 years)
Healthy Beginnings Program
Grounded in attachment theory and relationship practices, this program focuses on building secure, responsive relationships between babies and their educators. With nurturing care and emotional attunement, we support babies’ overall wellbeing and development.
Toddlers (1-3 years)
Early Experiences Program
Inspired by the Abecedarian Approach, our toddler program emphasises language-rich interactions, such as conversational reading and learning games. These early experiences build the foundations for strong communication, social skills, and cognitive growth.
Preschool or Kindergarten (3-5 years)
School Readiness Program
Through Project-Based Learning, children are encouraged to explore big ideas, solve problems, and collaborate with others. This hands-on, inquiry-driven approach develops critical thinking, independence, and a love of learning that lasts.
Committed to Safety & Quality
At Aussie Kindies, your child’s safety, wellbeing, and early education experience are our top priorities. We follow strict safety protocols as part of our Safety Commitment and operate in line with the National Quality Framework to ensure the highest standards in early childhood education and care.
