Our purpose-built centre caters for 139 children from 6 weeks to school age, across seven spacious, modern studios designed specifically for each age group: Nursery, Toddlers, Junior Kinder, Pre-Kinder and Kindergarten. Imagine Childcare and Kindergarten Oakleigh South also have a dedicated Art Studio and an in-house art teacher to deliver creative lessons for children across all age groups.

Our modern studios are equipped with high-quality, natural educational resources, chosen to complement our curriculum and support your child’s learning journey. Within our studios, you will discover smaller spaces designed to make children feel secure and truly at home, including home corners, reading nooks, art studio spaces, floor & table activities and other inspiring play zones. These carefully curated spaces foster meaningful interactions between our children and Educators, promoting quality engagement and learning experiences.

The large outdoor area at Imagine Childcare and Kindergarten Oakleigh South provides children with the space for big movements like running, jumping, kicking and throwing, which is very important for fitness and physical development. From sandpits and bike tracks to custom adventure forts and vegetable gardens, your little one is going to have so much fun exploring and playing in our beautiful outdoor playscapes.

Located on Centre Road, our long day care centre provides a convenient stop for families on the way to work. Our beautiful, purpose-built childcare centre also has plenty of on-site car parking for easy drop-offs and pick-ups. We are also located near various primary schools, including Hunterdale Primary School and Oakleigh South Primary School and only a short drive from The Links Shopping Centre.
