Childcare Services

There are childcare centres at our Preston, Epping and Greensborough campuses. These long day care facilities provide quality care to children of Melbourne Polytechnic students and staff and are also open to children from their local communities.

Study with peace of mind, knowing that your children are in excellent hands.

Please note that enrolling in a course or becoming an employee of Melbourne Polytechnic does not guarantee a childcare place. Melbourne Polytechnic does not manage any childcare facility. They are operated by private providers or Committee of Management.

Get in touch with the below centres directly to enquire about fees and availability.
