Welcome to Canterbury Childcare Centre, where we provide personalised and tailored early childhood education and care in the heart of Canterbury, Victoria.

Nestled within a beautiful Edwardian home, our centre offers a warm and nurturing environment that fosters growth, learning, and development for children.

Canterbury Childcare Centre was founded by Jane Webb as she wanted to create a warm and welcoming space where children thrive. With over 47 years of experience in the childcare field, Jane is passionate about creating a nurturing environment where young learners feel safe, loved, and excited to grow.

Her dedication to quality care is at the heart of everything the centre does, from the handpicked staff to the thoughtful programs designed to spark curiosity and creativity in children. Jane believes in treating every child with respect and kindness, encouraging their individuality while fostering a sense of belonging.

At the core of her values are integrity, empathy, and a deep commitment to community. She believes that strong relationships with families are key to a child’s success, and she works hard to ensure that parents feel supported and involved in their child’s learning journey. Jane is also a firm believer in lifelong learning and always strives to stay informed about the latest in early childhood education.

Under Jane’s leadership, Canterbury Childcare Centre has become a trusted part of the community, known for its personal touch, flexible approach, and strong connections with families. She’s committed to making sure each child gets the best start in life, and her passion for early childhood education shows in every aspect of the centre.
