Poppy Patch caps at 50 children so every child is known. Our founders are both nurses, which shapes how we care for children's health, safety and wellbeing every day.
Two weeks free for new Churchlands families.

New families only. Conditions apply, ask us on your tour.
What is the best childcare near Churchlands?
It depends on what matters most to your family. Churchlands is to our north west, on the western side of Herdsman Lake. Families from Churchlands choose Poppy Patch Early Learning for its small, owner run feel (room for 50 children), nurse founders on site, meals cooked by our own cook, care from 3 months with a School Readiness Program, and clear fees from $175 a day before CCS. Book a tour to see if it suits your child.
Do you offer before and after school care for Churchlands schools?
Our before and after school care is for Wembley Primary School only, as we walk children to and from school, but our vacation care is open to children from other local schools. Churchlands families use our long day care for children from 3 months to 6 years.
What does a day look like?
A gentle rhythm of morning welcome, learning and exploration, lunch and rest, active outdoor play and creative play before pick up.
What are your hours?
Monday to Friday, 6:30am to 6:00pm.
