One Tree Defence Childcare Unit Coral Sea

One Tree Defence Childcare Unit Coral Sea provides a high-quality early learning experience situated within the HMAS Cairns naval base in Cairns North, Queensland. This centre offers a secure, nurturing, and engaging environment specifically designed to support the unique needs of defence families. With a focus on holistic development, the unit creates a vibrant space where children can learn, play, and grow.

The centre prides itself on delivering play-based educational programs led by experienced and dedicated educators. Children are encouraged to explore their interests, develop social-emotional skills, and build a strong foundation for future learning through creative activities, outdoor play, and a supportive curriculum. The facilities are thoughtfully designed to inspire curiosity and provide a safe haven for little ones.

Parents, particularly those serving in the defence force, find immense value in the convenience and peace of mind offered by this unit. The secure location within the base, combined with staff understanding of defence family dynamics, makes it an ideal choice. Mums appreciate the supportive community, flexible care options where possible, and the commitment to fostering resilience and a sense of belonging for children whose parents may experience deployment. It's a place where children thrive, and families feel understood and supported.
