Jerry Bailey Children's Centre

Shoalhaven Heads village is nestled between Coolangatta Mountain & the Pacific Ocean with the beautiful Shoalhaven River winding past on the south. Jerry Bailey Children's Centre is located in this idyllic setting and has been caring for & preparing children for school since 1984.
The name Jerry Bailey has been associated with the locality of Shoalhaven Heads for over 117 years & the township only changed its name to Shoalhaven Heads in 1955.
Shoalhaven Heads Community Centre was built that same year, by voluntary labour, & is the hall where our Preschool & Long Day Care is now located.
Jerry Bailey Children's Centre is a Community-Based, Not for Profit Centre offering both Preschool hours & Long Day Care hours of care to all families.
Our Centre is run by a voluntary Management Committee which means that we are an integral part of our community – providing childcare services for families, & benefiting from the dedication & committment of our community's volunteers, in return.
