MacKinnon Parade Children’s Centre
Mackinnon Parade Children’s Centre Incorporated (MPCC) is located in North Adelaide next to the Parklands. Their quiet, leafy street provides us with one of the best locations in Adelaide for a children’s service.

Their greatest asset is that they have a passion and love for working with young children. Their Educators are well supported and well trained, while their high ratios of Educators to Children provide an exclusive program for your child to learn and grow. Their Educators are dedicated to following the Early Years Learning Framework so that your child can receive the level of learning and stimulation that they want in a fun and structured environment.
