What's around here

Written with AI from listings in the AroundSchools directory — what we have listed, not everything in the area, and it can be wrong.

A Melbourne-wide average says little about the centre you would actually use. The more useful number is a real centre's fee, and Prahran has one in plain view: Stonnington Council runs its own early years services, and [Princes Close Early Years Service](https://www.stonnington.vic.gov.au/Services/Children-and-Family-Services/Early-Years-Services/Council-owned-Early-Years-Services/Princes-Close-Early-Years-Service), in Prahran itself, publishes its full-day fee on the council site. It sets one rate for younger children and a slightly lower one for older children, and the day includes morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and a late snack. The council's [early years services page](https://www.stonnington.vic.gov.au/Services/Children-and-Family-Services/Early-Years-Services/Council-owned-childcare-centres) lists the centres it runs.
