At C&K Blackwater Community Childcare Centre, we welcome children from 6 weeks of age to 5 years old and provide care and early learning Monday to Friday, with flexible booking options.

We are proud of our spacious natural outdoor learning environment, which has real trees, grass, dirt, leaves, and wildlife such as native birds and possums nesting in the trees. Our nature-based playground inspires challenging and open-ended play where children are provided with uninterrupted time to explore and engage in learning. We respect children as powerful learners, thinkers, theorisers and active citizens.

As a home away from home, our environment provides a safe, secure and supported space for your child. Our dedicated, friendly and qualified staff nurture play-based learning, fostering a lifelong love of learning. Our families love our large natural outdoor area, where we encourage children to explore, discover, play and engage in nature.

We have a wide range of cultural and linguistic backgrounds with our families and staff. This provides us the opportunity to incorporate these cultures and languages throughout the centre. Our approach to inclusion and diversity ensures that every child, family and staff member feels safe, welcomed and important.

C&K childcare centres offer quality education and care programs. We focus on a unique infant and toddler approach and deliver the approved kindergarten program for 4-year-olds. Best of all, we provide flexible options, so you can choose the hours of care to suit your family.

We are located in Central Queensland, approximately 2 hours inland from Rockhampton.
