Goldfields Before and After School Hours Care

The service has been rated as “Meeting National Quality Standards” by the Education and Care Regulatory Unit and can accommodate up to 78 children.  The centre offers a pick-up service from some local schools for its after school program.

Children can play, relax and even finish their homework in the safety of the Y WA’s before and after school care centres.

Supporting families and their children in a fun and stimulating environment is all part of our before and after-school care that caters for children from Kindergarten through to the age of 12.

Your children will be cared for in an environment where we take responsibility for helping school-aged children meet their emotional and educational needs.

They will hang out with their friends and meet new friends which will help develop the social skills that come from sharing a meal or playing a game.

Centre Director: Cindy

Heya Kalgoorlie,

My name is Cindy and I’m super excited to be the newly appointed OSHC manager!

A little bit about me:
I moved to Kalgoorlie just over a year ago and relocated with my husband who manages a trucking company here. I have one bio daughter who is 11 and a stepson who is 7.

I am originally from Busselton and have over 10 years of experience in childcare across the board. I have always had a passion for working with children from babysitting at a young age to volunteering at local gyms and children’s clubs assisting wherever I could. OSHC is my niche I am very active, and fun-loving and have a strong passion for helping children thrive and providing parents a market for Before and after-school care. I enjoy helping children become the best version of themselves and encourage independence in a safe and secure environment.

I can’t wait to start this journey and meet all the wonderful children and families of Kalgoorlie.
