In today’s competitive early learning landscape, developing a successful childcare centre requires more than ambition, it demands strategic consideration of real estate quality, compliance with town planning regulations, supply and demand dynamics, market insight and financial viability.
At Mollard Property Group, we understand the increasing challenges faced by developers in the childcare sector. Rising land and construction costs, stringent regulatory requirements, and intense competition mean that securing the right site and ensuring the financial viability of a project is more complex than ever. A site’s success is determined long before construction begins – and choosing the right site is critical.
Our experienced development management team conducts a multi-faceted site analysis, ensuring every aspect, from location viability to financial performance, is fully assessed before significant investment is made.
Our Childcare Needs Assessment Modelling and Financial Feasibility Study is designed to provide a comprehensive evaluation of your site’s true potential, delivering critical insights that support informed, confident investment decisions.

WHAT WE DELIVER
The Childcare Needs Assessment Modelling and Financial Feasibility Study includes:
Location & Demographic Profiling – Analysis of local population trends, growth forecasts, and demand for childcare services.
Town Planning Considerations – Review of zoning, regulatory compliance, and planning permit requirements.
Licensed Places-to-Children Ratio – Ensuring the proposed number of childcare places aligns with demographic demand and licensing standards.
Childcare Supply & Demand Analysis – Identification of market gaps and competitive pressures.
Financial Modelling – Estimation of proposed rental returns, tenant terms, operational margins (EBIT), and construction cost estimates.
Competition Analysis – Evaluation of existing and proposed centres within the catchment.
Concept Planning – Development of a licensing-compliant, preliminary site layout and architectural facade concept.
Detailed Floor Plans – Prepared by registered childcare building designers, aligned with licensing and operational requirements.
Leasing Strategy – Creation of an attractive leasing package and targeted marketing campaign to secure premium tenants.


Based on our findings, we provide a detailed feasibility concept plan demonstrating how a childcare centre could be configured on the site, complete with architectural facade designs and financial analysis to accurately establish end-value potential.

FREE PRELIMINARY SITE ASSESSMENT
We are currently offering free preliminary site assessments for landowners and developers to find out if the site is suitable for a childcare centre development.
Simply submit your site details, and our research team will provide an initial suitability review within 2 business days.
If the site is suitable, we can proceed with a comprehensive Childcare Needs Assessment Modelling and Financial Feasibility Study. If it does not, we will outline the key risks and suggest alternative development strategies to maximise your site’s potential.
