CHCCC provides high-quality, inclusive child care and education at Perth Children’s Hospital, supporting hospital staff and the community since 1986.
The Children's Hospital Child Care Centre (CHCCC), a not-for-profit community organisation, is nestled within the Perth Children’s Hospital on Level 5 in Nedlands. Established in 1986, the Centre has been an integral part of the hospital and broader community, offering exceptional care and education programs. Catering to children aged 0-6, CHCCC serves families for work, study, or respite, including children of hospital shift workers, children with additional needs, siblings of patients at PCH, and children at risk.
The Centre's high-quality care is reflected in its individualised settling process for smooth transitions, support for breastfeeding mothers, and a primary care program fostering secure relationships with experienced educators. CHCCC also offers a Four-Year-Old Kindy Program led by an Early Childhood Teacher, inclusion support with a Registered Nurse, and a team of experienced, mature staff. The educational program, grounded in the Early Years Learning Framework, prioritises play as a fundamental aspect of learning, promoting curiosity, problem-solving, and engagement.
