Located at 71 Roseberry Avenue, Birkenhead’s Lollipops Educare centre provides a warm, welcoming environment where children love to learn. Purpose built in 2006, the centre has been designed to ensure that children aged from three months to five years have everything they need to learn, have fun, and be safe.
Separate Over Two's and Under Two's Area's
Our Separate under and over two’s areas allow children to receive
age-appropriate learning opportunities in a safe, nurturing environment.
Our under-two’s area accommodates 16 children, each with their own cot in a warm and quiet sleeping room. With an excellent staff-child ratio of one adult to four children, your baby or toddler receives quality care and attention. "ENROLLING NOW"
Our over-two’s area accommodates 44 children within a treasure-trove of learning and play. This area also includes a separate toddler’s area so that our younger children can begin a safe transition toward the over-two’s area at their own pace without feeling overwhelmed. The staff ratio in the over-two’s area is one adult to eight children so each child receives focused care and quality attention. "ENROLLING NOW"

Nutritious Meals
Our in-house cook provides children with a nutritious, balanced menu of morning and afternoon tea and lunch. Fresh fruit and vegetables are always in ready supply and meals are wholesome and home-cooked. In December 2009, the centre was awarded with The Healthy Heart Award from the Heart Foundation – something that we are very proud of.
