Welcome to Moresby Avenue Child Care & Early Learning Centre
We care as much as you do.
For over 35 years, we’ve been part of the Bulleen community, providing warm, nurturing early education and care for infants, toddlers and preschoolers. Every day, we focus on what matters: your child’s happiness, development, and sense of belonging.
Why Families Choose MACC
🤝
Community You Can Trust
Founded in 1988 and run by parent volunteers, we’re not a franchise—we’re your neighbours. We’ve been here for over three decades, invested in the community we serve.
🎨
Play-Based Learning That Sticks
Your child learns best through play. Our educators use the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) to nurture curiosity, creativity, and confidence in every interaction.
🍎
Home-Cooked Meals Every Day
No packaged food here. Our qualified cook prepares fresh, nutritious meals on-site using a rotating 6-weekly menu. We accommodate allergies and cultural dietary requirements.
👶
Small Group Ratios and Big Attention
With just 39 places across three age-specific rooms, your child gets the individual attention they deserve. We really do know each child deeply.
💚
Mental Health Matters at Every Age
We’re a Be You framework participant, supporting the emotional wellbeing and resilience of every child and family in our care.
💰
Affordable Quality Care
At $147.50 per day, we’re competitive. Plus, we’re CCS (Child Care Subsidy) approved, so you get the maximum rebate available.

Life at MACC
A glimpse into our indoor studios, sensory spaces and the big leafy backyard where the children spend their days exploring, building and growing.
Learning Through Play, Indoors & Out
Our environment is the “third teacher.” From the textured sensory wall to the sandpit, veggie garden and climbing spaces, every corner of MACC is designed to invite curiosity and independence.
Children move freely between calm indoor studios and a generous natural outdoor yard throughout the day.
What Families Say

“Our daughter has blossomed here. She’s confident, curious, and can’t wait to come back each day. That tells us everything.”
