Does Size Matter? Yes… when it comes to childcare centres, it does!

Strong yields. Stronger opportunities. Is it time to build your own centre?

Recent nationwide childcare sales show strong yields and unwavering investor confidence – clear signs of a sector that continues to perform.

In Lota, QLD, a Guardian centre with 93 places achieved a 5.04% yield. Petrie, QLD saw a Growing Tree Early Education centre with 64 places sell at a 5.15% yield. In Cardiff South, NSW, the Cardiff Busy Bee Pre School, offering 29 places, reached a 5.25% yield, while in Wilton, NSW, a Goodstart centre with 117 places sold at a 5.00% yield.

“These results show strong commitment to the sector – it’s a great time to develop your own childcare centre.” – Phil Mollard

At Mollard Property Group, we help operators make that move with confidence. Our location analysis identifies the most viable sites with the right demographics, catchments, and growth potential. From there, we determine the appropriate number of children and centre design to achieve the best balance between:

• Cost Efficiency: Smart layouts that maximise return per square metre
• Quality and Style: Designs that attract families and retain educators
• Time Savings: Streamlined approvals and faster delivery

The construction industry is entering a transformative era driven by new-age building technologies and the rapid integration of artificial intelligence. For the first time in history, AI is reshaping how projects are conceived, designed and delivered – signalling the end of outdated, inefficient systems that have long defined traditional construction.

At Mollard Property Group, we are embracing this evolution to create smarter, more efficient, and environmentally responsible childcare developments, delivering time-efficient construction and streamlined DA approvals for faster project delivery. By leveraging data-driven design and advanced project analytics, we will deliver exceptional early learning environments that set new standards for quality and innovation.

When it comes to childcare development, size truly matters – getting the scale right, means a stronger yield, sustainable operations, and a centre built for long-term success.
