Early Years Management
Report
Early Years Management (EYM) was introduced by the Department of Education and Training (DET) in 2016 to replace Kindergarten Cluster Management (KCM). Early Years Managers have expertise in the delivery of high-quality early childhood education and care services.
The move towards EYM is designed to reduce the management and administrative burden on volunteer committees and support kindergartens so they can continually increase their service standards.Children benefit from high-quality, inclusive services provided by professionals who are well supported to adopt contemporary and evidence-based practices.

Kindergarten
Report
Enrolling your child in a quality three and four-year-old kindergarten program is a proven way to amplify their early development. Kindergarten works alongside home-based learning, equipping children with the skills and confidence they need to start school well. ECMS operates more than 50 high-quality three and four-year-old kindergarten programs all over Melbourne.
Childcare
Report
You'll no doubt be looking for a centre where your child will be safe, nurtured, stimulated and happy. But it also needs to be close to your work or home, within your budget and have availability on the days you need. Because quality childcare is about so much more than 'caring' for children. Quality childcare also helps children develop important physical, social, intellectual, language and emotional skills.
