Supporting you and your family

Jajumbora Children and Family Centre is a welcoming community hub offering a wide range of early childhood, parenting, health, and family support services.

Conveniently located on Glenda Street in Waterford West, we work in partnership with families to support the wellbeing and development of children and caregivers alike.

To ensure our services are accessible to everyone, we also offer free transport to and from your appointments and programs at the centre.

We’re here to walk alongside you on your parenting journey, every step of the way.

Early Childhood Education and Care Services

We have playgroups that support a range of developmental stages and ages, as well as early childhood education and development programs, including social and emotional wellbeing.

We work closely with local schools and our own Deadly Kindy programs – Burragah, Gundoo Mirra and Jajumbora.
Our team offer parenting resources and programs, home visits and counselling.

We also offer nutrition programs, assistance in creating healthy and safe home environments and individual support for children and families, as well as regular self-development and family-focused classes for parents and adults.

Family and Parenting Support Services

We have qualified Indigenous Circle of Security Parenting (COSP) course facilitators. The COSP course is an early intervention program designed for parents of children aged 0-8 years. The syllabus is professionally designed by the Circle of Security Institute and is based on decades of research into attachment theory.

The aim is to educate parents on the importance of creating secure attachments with their young children, and to increase parental capacity and awareness of their children’s needs.

The course is a judgement-free space to discuss ways to improve parent-child relationships and improve parent confidence in responding in a loving and comforting way to their child’s needs.
