About Us

Early Childhood Australia (ECA) is the national peak body for early childhood in Australia. ECA is a not-for-profit organisation with a national membership, and our vision is ‘every young child thriving and learning’. To achieve this vision, we champion the rights of all children from birth to the age of eight to thrive, learn and play at home, in the community, within early learning settings and through the early years of school. Our work builds the capacity of our society, including families and early childhood professionals, so that every child - regardless of location, household income or individual needs - can be nurtured to achieve their unique potential. 

ECA acknowledges the unique place of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in our society, the past and current injustices and realities for them across Australia, and the enduring strength of their cultures and identities. We commit to being at the forefront of achieving a reconciled nation that values, respects and celebrates Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ways of knowing and being.
