About Euroka | Community-Focused Child Care in Blaxland

Our Story

Since 1985, Euroka Children’s Centre has been a cornerstone for families in Blaxland and the Blue Mountains. Born from the vision of creating a community-focused, not-for-profit childcare centre, Euroka was named after the Dharug word meaning
"Sunny Place."

Our team of passionate educators believes in fostering warmth, wonder, and a love for learning in every child. We are proud to have supported generations of families, helping little ones thrive in an environment steeped in respect for culture, community, and nature. After 40 years of operation in the community, we now have previous students who are now parents; returning with their own children.
