Our early learning and long day care centre offers child care in Mona Vale in a homely setting for families living or commuting through Mona Vale, Bayview, Newport, Warriewood and Bilgola Plateau.  We operate between the hours of 7:30 am to 6:00 pm to meet the needs of your busy schedule and to allow time in the morning for drop-offs and time in the afternoons for pick-ups as well.

As part of our service, we provide nappies for your convenience. In addition, we also provide nutritious meals throughout the day including breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, and a late snack.

Our School Readiness program is taught by our team of passionate educators led by our bachelor-qualified teacher. Our learning environment encourages children to learn through play and become inquisitive and curious members of society.

Our childcare centre proudly offers a kindergarten/preschool program to ensure your child is supported for their transition to school every step of the way. With a focus on language, literacy, numeracy, social skills and more your child will become school ready.

We welcome you to visit our centre and meet with our staff so that they may show you around our amazing facilities. We look forward to hearing from you!

I have been working in the early childhood education and care sector since 2005 and my qualification includes a Diploma of Children’s Services.

I am very passionate about all areas of development within a child’s life. Being a mum myself, I understand how important the first years of child’s life are to their development and education. I am very fortunate to be in the industry that allows me to educate, care and nurture the children.

What makes our centre special is our team and their dedication to the children to fuel their love of learning. We can’t wait to meet you and share this exciting journey with your family.

See what some of our parents have to say about our centre:

“Our family loves Sandcastles Mona Vale! The educators are professional, kind and caring, the children get delicious and healthy food and the centre is clean and has great outdoor play areas. My son has been attending Sandcastles for the past 3 years for 4 days a week and he loves going to kindy! He has made so many great friends and adores his educators. He has come along in leaps and bounds over the past 12 months with his speech, social skills and confidence and it is due to the excellent input and support he gets from his educators at this great kindy. We moved out of the Mona Vale area recently but continued to send our son to Sandcastles (even though it adds a lot more travel time to our day) as we believe it is worth it knowing he in a caring and nurturing environment and he is happy, content and thriving.”

“I can thoroughly recommend Sandcastles Mona Vale. My son has been attending for the past 2 years and the staff and centre is amazing. I know a lot of people complain about the high costs of childcare but when you know your precious child is being looked after and educated so well the money is worth it. They have a chef on site whom provides fresh healthy meals and the menu changes weekly, they have external companies come and provide their services from sport to dance classes even to visits from local emergency services. If you are looking for a childcare in the Mona Vale/Warriewood area look no further than Sandcastles.”

“My daughter has been attending Sandcastles for 2 years. For most of that time she has been a full timer, 5 days a week from open to close! It has been the hardest thing sending her to day care for so much time. Thank god that it is such a wonderful centre. She absolutely loves her time there, the friends she has made and the warm and welcoming staff. There is such a lovely family atmosphere there with many of the staff having their own children in attendance. The centre communicate very well with you giving updates on your child and also taking into account feedback from parents. The chef on staff cooks up delicious and healthy meals. The centre always smells delicious of home baking! Anyway I wont harp on! We love it there and are about to send our second child. The opening hours are by far the best around. I couldn’t handle the commute to the city without them. … oh and one more thing! They have their own resident chickens!! Love it!”
