Supporting local children and families for over 40 years
BFCC is a non-government, not-for-profit organisation which has been assisting our community for over 40 years.
Our History
We began serving our community in July 1979 from a shop front on Botany Road and moved to our current location on Banksia Street in 1981. We work with families and children primarily from the Randwick and Bayside Local Government Areas (LGA), offering a range of free, accessible and inclusive support services in a safe, confidential and welcoming environment.
Our Specialised Services include
Parenting Support
From time to time families may need a little help
Supported Playgroups
This program focuses on developing the emotional connections between parents and carers and their children.
Transition to School
Starting school is the beginning of an exciting journey for you and your child, involving significant change for your child and your family.
Family Support
We all may need a little help when faced with life’s challenges. With the right support, everyone has the potential to improve our lives, relationships and families.
