Our services touch the lives of approximately 6,000 children and families in many varied and diverse communities across Melbourne each week. At ECMS, we provide educational programs to three and four-year-old children and their families in kindergarten and related settings. ECMS also operates a suite of community-based long day care centres providing quality care and education to children aged 0-6 years. ECMS offers Family Day Care, providing in-home care and education to children in the south-west corridor of Melbourne, Darebin and Banyule. All of our services are provided in partnership with families, parent committees, local government, business, schools and other community-based organisations.
